Hi

Am I relieved too to find you brave souls going it alone. How many of you are gals in your 30's?

And does anyone know how easy it is to make new friends in Adelaide?

Oh my, well how old are you? (sorry I see you have said!) do you have any children? what are your interests? Yes it can be done, but as a single person (woman) I didn't find it that easy....very family orientated place

PS I was 39 when I arrived

This visa malarky is frustrating and stressful enough! It must be tougher with kiddies and OH's in tow!

Ideally I want to head to Perth, Adelaide or anywhere NSW, just got to wait and see what area the job is!

How can the official loners thread have pages and pages of replies. There can only be 1 official loner. You cant be a loner if everybody talks to you.:rofl::p

Oh no Pony!! Hope it isnt too painful! At least you got it doing something fun like surfing! Could be worse, you could have just tripped over on the pavement or something! So, congrats on your first Ozzie injury! :thumbsup:

p.s. - how do Oz hospitals compare to the NHS?!

Oh no, that sucks. Hope it heals quickly and doesn't hurt too much! My ex flatmate had the fin on hers go into her mouth and rip her cheek open!!

I'm having massive trouble finding accomodation near the mine, nowhere is furnished! Grrrrr!
