Trying to make friends. Perth
Hi my name is Dom im almost 28, moved to Perth last year Im originally from Bristol, totally love the life here, but im finding Perth an unfriendly place I havent managed to make any friends yet. Feeling somewhat isolated as im realizing that good friends from home dont keep in touch and that its even harder to make friends here. So if there are any guys or girls that wouldnt mind another pom to hang out with, get in touch

Sort of like here but not as friendly in my opinion. Can get a bit bitchy !
Just tried the site to find a link for you but its down at the mo. being maitained
I can't remember the girls name but she links up a regular social with a myspace website (so that could be another search) They seem really well attended and great fun.

Hi Dom,
If you look for the poster named Dawn, it's her daughter, Nikki, that runs the nights out for singles and young 'uns. Send her a pm and she'll be in touch, she's a lovely girl.
Good luck,
Tracey
Ps Hang on in there, it takes time to meet and make good friends (how long did it take in the UK!). Some people you'll meet will be OK, but somewhere along the line you'll meet some good 'uns.

Yeah it would be cool to meet guys or girls my own age, but older folk are great too...the more the merrier!
