Wodwik Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I'm arriving on 27August, and have found a flat in Henley Beach so things are falling into place. I'll be consulting to a company once the visa is finalized, and commuting to NE suburbs. Looking forwrd to 'normal' driving practices.The company has a stand at the Royal Adelaide Show (Not sure if it's allowed to mention the name...) but I hope to meet some ex-SAs there. My family is only joining me at the end of the school year, so it's going to be tough in one way and great that I can concentrate on work for 3 months.As a Joburger I'm looking forward to being able to take a run on the beach road (without minibu taxis)Wodwik.

Jody Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 We are arriving the 02/03 September 2011. Heard Henley Beach is a great place to live. We are down to counting days now, but this month is going by so damn slowly. Goodluck with that long ass flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wodwik Posted August 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Thanks for the replies guys - are Adelaideans always this friendly! Maybe I've been hiding behind big walls in Joburg too long. I will contact you by PM to discuss important things like Rugby, and lesser things like where the kids will go to school. Anyone keen on mountain biking? I will have to find a cheapie until my bike arrives in the container (Feb 2012!) so I will keep an eye on gumtree and visit local stores too.Getting the last few things done before I start packing. Never realised how much there is to cancel: gym, tracker, insurances, telkom, SABC. But it certainly seems that the new credit act has made these service providers more willing to help you with the cancellation process.See you guys!

nhhughes Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hi Etienne - Where is the RWC on. I don't have foxtel and apparently Rugby Union is not a recognised sport in SA!! Need to find somewhere for Friday evening.WodwikHi Wodwik, You have probably tracked down a pub by now to watch the Rugby, if you are still looking Coopers Alehouse in the city has all the rugby with sound. I have found a few pubs only have it on the screen and don't play the sound. Very frustrating!!! Really looking forward to the quarters this weekend.
