Friday was a great day here. I headed off to the New Mum lunch at Pymble. What a fantastic event! Within minutes, I'd met a woman from San Francisco who's been living here 6 years (married an Aussie). Then we started chatting with a woman from Capetown, South Africa who'd just arrived. We must have been giving out vibes, because we attracted the attention of a lady from Oxford, England who had also just arrived and whose husband works for Microsoft. When we sat down to lunch, we sat next to a recent arrival from Hong Kong, originally from England as well. After a flurry of comparing our experiences in house hunting (expensive) and school selection (many of the same considered), we settled down to a really delicious lunch.
Long story short, from noon to 3:15, I had a great time with a great bunch of women, many of whom are in the same situation. And now I have a birthday lunch to look forward to in just a couple of weeks!
