New to North Shore...looking for friends
Hi All, Been in NZ for just over 4 weeks and just moved in to a rental property in Glenfield on the North Shore with my husband and 6 year old daughter.
Looks like we just missed out on a meet-up at the weekend! But would love to arrange to meet up with people in the near future.
Cheers
Kay

Re: New to North Shore...looking for friends
Thanks, that's really kind of you, but we have the basics - and we've had a call this afternoon to say that our stuff will be delivered on Monday afternoon, which is a big relief!
Were you thinking during the week or weekend? I'm not working at the moment, and hubby is just doing freelance, so we could do either - we are busy this weekend - going to the Taste Auckland festival, but free the weekend after (and most of the weekends after that as well!)

Re: New to North Shore...looking for friends
next weekend would be gerat what about the FLax cafe Browns Bay Sunday 10-10.30 we are 3 and a dog (black and tan border collie) although DS will probably be on the playground!
Browns Bay Market runs 8-12 I think so its worth a wonder if you are up early enough

Re: New to North Shore...looking for friends
Hi, that would be great. We have promised our daughter that we will go to the Santa Parade in CBD so will have to shoot off about 12ish, but can definitely meet up for a couple of hours beforehand.
I will pm you my contact details, and that way we hopefully won't miss each other on the day!
Look forward to meeting you
Kay
