Hi Lesley

Would love to say we could join your meet but we are just at the early stages of migration!!! One day if we make it perhaps we will then join your get together. We are looking at P Pines, Coomera areas how are you finding life in OZ? It is so nice to hear other peoples views especially as we have so many decisions ahead of us. thanks Nicky

hey hey bloody blaydoners...I'm from whickham, been here in Coomera since sept. There's a few Geordies around..I went to a labour hire company and the girl who interviewed me was in my class at whickham comp and drank in the fellsider with me years ago. needless to say all 4 of us are big drinking, bbq and weekend away buddies.
