Hi,

Did you try the Hash? We are also new to the island and will try Hashing this Saturday.

Apart from that I also have found it hard to meet people outside of work. We joined a scuba diving club which can be a nice way of meeting different people and the drinks after can be a good laugh.

Thanks

Hi guys,

I've been on the island for 18 months now but many friends have recently left the island. If you fancy meeting up for a drink at some point then drop me a message.

If you go to crystal waters beach bar, Worthing on a Sunday afternoon you will meet loads of people at the Sunday BBQ, for dancing, food and of course a wee drink or two.
You will meet people on holiday and those who live there. Once been you will never look back

Hi

Hashing... commonly known as a drinking club with a running problem!

We are a group of people, various ages, various abilities who get together on a Saturday afternoon to run,walk, shuffle around a trail laid by one or two of our group. Then we socialise.....simple really :)

We normally number about 80 or so, both expat and Bajan. Some old age pensioners, some youngsters.. most in-between.

You can find out where the next run is from the website http://www.barbadoshash.com/

You can also see pictures from various runs to get an idea of what we are about.

I can tell you we have a lot of fun... so look forward to seeing you there..

Ian

Hi ALL.
