Surrey, ah ok... And are you also planning to move to Bunbury when you arrive too or are you looking at Perth or inbetween, lol. It is hard to make such a move, I know, we boomeranged four times... But in time you do realise that you came out here for a reason and, usually that reason is because it is a fantastic place. This is a great site to chat to others who are in the same boat as you or even get support/advice too, a friendly chat keeps you going lol Give me a shout If you want to know about anything. Keep sane Claire xXxXx

I'm only new to this forum thing though as I just started up as a real estate agent and thought I would help new folk to the area find a new home from home lol

This was my message to your bro

Well, we just came over again in April 2011, after spending nearly two years living in Wynyard... Even those gorgeous homes were no match for here... North facing garden... It blew a gale lol. But we settled now and there are a lot of our friends followed us over like I was saying to your brother... I'll see if I can find my message to him

Sure do... The nicer side to Stockton lol

Well we actually grew up in Coulby Newham as kids, but as a family, my hubby and our girls then moved to Ingleby Barwick

Yeah... Us too... Did your brother just leave a feed on here too... He 21? I just left a big long message on his lol... My girls are a little younger than you being 12 and 13, but my friends have girls your age and older

Heya georgiajoemillie, our friends son plays at Rockingham and they often play their games at the newish Larkhill Sporting Complex at Port Kennedy. They also have adult games etc too and there is a licensed bar. Here is a link and it shows you who plays there and what sport etc. We have lots of friends here who are friends of ours from back in the UK who followed us over, ha and they all have boys ranging from 6 to 9, so your lad could maybe catch up with them or something. Also, if you just fancy a coffee and would like to learn a little more about the areas around us all, I would be more than happy to catch up with you. If you want my mobile number, just give me a PM Catch you soon Claire http://www.rockingham.wa.gov.au/City-and-community/Community-places/Leisure,-sport-and-recreational/Sports-grounds-and-reserves.aspx#3

Heya guys... Congratulations!!! If you happen to come down South of the River, I would be happy to meet up with you guys and show you around or just chat n do coffee... I work in a local real estate office and have lived in Secret Harbour now with my gorgeous family since 05... Although we did spend a couple of years going backwards and forwards to Blighty, an expensive lesson learnt lol So, if any of you would like to catch up or want some advice, I would be more than happy to help out where I can. Happy and safe flights folks Claire

SOR Nick Stephan in Secret Harbour... They do 'rent a chair' so, as far as I can make out, you are self employed and they always seem to have a spare chair, so that might be an idea... I have used Lisa there for some years now, she seems to really know her way about folks hair and, yes, she's a Brit too Claire x

Heya, I use Lisa in Nick Stephan Hair in the Secret Harbour shopping centre... She's from UK and has been at the shop since it opened. Claire x

Heya girls, I also live in Secret Harbour and I always go to Lisa (English girl and used to be the manager) at Nick Stephan in the shops... She's away this week as she has rellies over, but I have used her for years now and am always pleased. I usually pay $125 for cut, colour and blow dry/straighten too... If she does me some high lights... I pay another 20, but I always chop n change the way it looks anyway and it's very long hair too. Hope this helps Claire x

Really??? That's shocking.. Oh well, least you won tho Hun. Glad it worked out for you. You been over here long? Claire x

Heya Julie... Did you manage to settle in ok?

Hey Rosie, my name is Claire and I work for a local real estate office up in Secret Harbour (10 mins north or Mandurah) and would love to catch up with you and show you more on the areas surrounding Mandurah... Please feel free to pm me if you fancy a coffee or just a chat... Been here since 05, but done the usual to and fro ing back to UK (four times, lol) so I certainly know what it's like to feel home sick... And how to get over it too ). You are certainly not alone over here so, when you get down, give me a shout and I will help you out. Good luck, keep in touch, Claire x

Well, if any of you new girls fancy a coffee in or about Mandurah, please feel free to give me a shout... I love coffee n catch ups ;o)
