Navigator Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 I'm glad to see there's quite a few South Africans in Wagga. My family and I will probably be moving to Wagga end of Feb or early March. The company I work for is relocating their business to Wagga. It will be great to meet up with other South Africans in Wagga and surrounding areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Witch Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Hi again, silly me.. I was trying to multi-task again, and got it all wrong! Hey Renier, yes, do let us know when you arrive, it will be good to get together for a meet-up. We have been in Aus (in Wagga) for 3 weeks, and have (finally) been approved for our first rental. We have been very comfortable, living in Quest Serviced Apartments, an expensive but very convenient alternative while seeking a more permanent place to move into.Life in Wagga has been good, I am still stuck with the whole internet Café thing, but will soon have my own PC and Internet connection again at which time I will write longer and more informative posts.Until thenAndi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
