MiniDachsie Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) Hi HansaI am moving from Sydney to Melbourne end of July - not sure yet where I'll be living, but I am thinking of the (S)E suburbs, not too far out of city though as I'll be working at Melb Uni. I would like to meet all of you. Will try my best to get to the get together, although it might be a bit difficult for the first month or so as I'll be without a car for a while. JimmyP - you are living in a very nice suburb, Prahrah, any advice on how to get something there or surroundings that is not too expensive?Looking forward to meet you all!

HansaPlease Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Hey guys and girls, thanks for all the responses. I'm adding you to the list. I'm thinking August is looking likely - when the weather is ever so slightly better. Watch this space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assegaai Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Hi - We are in Knox. Does that qualify us to join in ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
didl Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Hello!We are in Glen Waverley. We arrived end of May and moved just last week in SE suburb. Just in time for August. How much better weather can we expect by then?didl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansaPlease Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Even people from Sydney qualify, as long as they're prepared to take a trip down for a get together. August - it'll start getting a bit lighter in the mornings and evenings, less rain, maybe a bit of wind, but higher average temparatures...

nans Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Also considering the SE (E) suburbs.... seems like I won't be on my own afterall!!! Landing in December... so can we do another get together early next year???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmandaP Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hi there,Live in Endeavour Hills so guess that qualifies for the area as Berwick, etc not far away from us. Would love to join in on the get-together/braai so please keep me on the list & send the details once sorted. Would be great to meet other ex-SA families and have some fun .Cheers,Amanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansaPlease Posted August 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Great stuff, looks like we've got a decent amount of interest. Will add you to the list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smartie Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hi there, Not sure whether to laugh or cry when I see these posts coz I have NO idea of the areas etc in Melbourne. My hubbie says that I can get lost on a straight line (which is seriously not far from the truth) so my head is spinning with the thoughts of learning to get around etc. BUT I would love to meet up with you guys once we arrive in Melbourne and looking forward to meeting and making lots of new friends....

The Burgers Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Can you add Melbourne wanna be's? We are planning on the big move in Jan.We are also planning this hopefully in January. Maybe the plane will contain 1/2 of Pretoria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jax and jens Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Hi ThereWell we so so busy getting ready for the container which is coming at the end of August. Flying out end September. Melbourne here we come. Going very blind so a bit nervous - but can't wait. Our 7 year old twins are also really looking forward to the BIG day.Can't wait to join one of the get togethers.Jax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polly Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 We'll be in Balwyn North from the 9th, so you can add us too PS St Kilda is close to Mckinnon / Bentleigh East / Ormond, which is in the Mickinnon school area. Apparently a good school. Houses are a little pricier, but it is really close to the ocean and a lot of shops and commercial. Beautiful parks there too. Very green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpitFire Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 It's more South than South East, but I'm in Middle Park, just before you hit St Kilda! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
