Hi,
were here now in Seaford Rise. OH and I only played ten holes as I got a phonecall asking me to come for an interview. It was pretty hot so we got a buggy. That was Willunga and it was nice what we played but have been told that the back nine are harder.

Get into shape, hmm, OH has joined a gym but I'm the one who needs to work out!

PM me if you fancy a game sometime.

Cheers,
Cooler

Would just like to say hi to you folks in Adelaide, or those of you who are going there too.

We are so excited, and can't wait to get out there. Would like to meet and chat with people in a similiar situation to ourselves. Please say HI!

Hi Peter,

thanks for your message.

I could possible bring over some irn-bru (subject to luggage weight) for you but i think i would struggle with the Tenants Velvet and Haggis.

It would be good to meet up for a beverage.

What team do you support in Scotland? I am originally from Loch Lomond and lived in Dumbarton for the first 10 years of my life.

Regards

Marc

Smile Re: We are coming to Adelaide!!

Hey, me and my OH have decided to move to adelaide in june next year just wondering if there is any places to get irn bru (cause thats going to be a major addictions to get over!) and also are there any real football/soccer teams that are decent to watch on internet i can only find AFL which i'll go watch and try and get into but i do love my footie!

Is everyone thats moved there found it easy to meet people and make friends that you can go out with etc? Its just me and him(!) no kids to help break the ice with people and just nervous about friends etc.

By the way the chat from everyone on the forums about adelaide have been great very informative and helpful and everyone sounds really friendly and happy and thats part of the reason it swayed me to pick adelaide over other places...just thought you should know how nice you all sound!

Lindsay

Yea you wont have a problem gettingIrn bru. There are now a few of the shops (Coles) stocking it if you know what one to go to. Also just found a butchers at Hackem that has great square sausage and black pudding.
Treated myself to four cans of Kilkenny the other night, $16, to make up for the lack of Velvet. There are cheaper options when it comes to beer though.
Watch out for the auld firm results but i guess i should be supporting my home team, Ayr United but it`s to depressing, lol. Play a bit of golf but at the moment back out on my bike trying to get fit for the Tour Downunder Bike ride of 100kms.
As for missing football you can get Foxtel (sky) but i started going to the Aussie Rules games ( C`mon the Crows) and really enjoy it, with a beer or 2 of course. you can also get behind Adelaide United , by God they need it this year, if you want some football action.
Peter, Eliz and the 2 boys

Just to let everyone know, we have PR now.

We came to SA 7 months ago on 457, and now have PR.

So, to all you guys in the process, it will happen, just have faith.

And it is worth it!
