We have been here for 3 months now in Townsville and are having a great time, we have two children aged 10 and 12 and they are loving it here too. it would be great to meet up and for the children to make new friends, get in touch soon

It would be great to get together and have a chat.

Ok, seeing as there is no news of a Strand meet up just yet. Does any one fancy meeting up during the holidays, maybe the Strand Park or Kirwan Aquatic Centre for the mums? What about Friday 9th January?

Or alternatively, a meet at The Centenary Hotel (French Street), Sunday 18th January. There is a bouncy pillow for the kids and a bar for the adults!

What about later in the afternoon about 3 pm? There is seating outside (undercover if I remember correctly) and the kids can play on the bouncy pillow with us watching.

Those with no children can just relax!

Sharon, how old are your children? I have two girls aged 4 and 6.

We are beginning to feel left out as our kids are in the UK so if anyone has some spare kids to lend us for the afternoon, that would be fab
