Just arrived!

[Guest Kate Mills]

My husband guspjmh posts on here all the time, now I'm joining in . Been here 3 days, journey was hard and jet lag is still playing havoc but it's so beautiful and weather is amazing. We have 2 kids, our son is 4, daughter is 2 and we want to start meeting people, we are in the Port Noarlunga area. My husband may be in work soon, and I might go insane on my own with kids!

 

We move into a long term place on the 28th so will be able to do bbqs etc from then!

Hello and welcome to both the forum and South Australia. Hope you settle quickly - is your long term rental to be in Noarlunga too? Good luck with your husband's job hunt, once that's settled it makes things easier.

Hi flossy, yeah our long term rental is in port noarlunga too. Kate is bathing the angry, jet lagged kids right now!

don't worry, in a few weeks all the schools go back so playgroups will start again. Your local library should have a community noticeboard with playgroups etc on it. http://www.onkaparingacity.com/onka/living_here/libraries/kids/babytime.jsp There is also kindergym , check the leisure centre, there used to be classes there.

Welcome to the forum Kate. Looking forward to being in your position in 12 months time! We're out in August for 2 weeks to validate and are stopping in one of Tamara's homes in Port Noarlunga. Definitely not looking forward to the jet lag (our boys are 5 and 3), but looking forward to exploring the area =)

Yes Welcome to Adelaide , remember the excitement and the buzz of activity in those early days , so much to do , so much is new, its a great time try and enjoy as much as possible, especially don’t stress too much over the job situation, great that you have an interview and all but if you are prepared to work and turn your hand to whatever it takes you will find work here ...I know it is easy to say and hard to do its just a slight regret of mine that when I came over I let job hunting stress me out and there was no need...have the right can do attitude and all will fall into place...the Aussie’s like to employ Poms , as they know we work hard and those that get here want to make it work.

You have lots of great weather on the way and so much to see and do so enjoy it ...just be prepared to explain what happened to our team in the cricket because they will pull your leg ....
