Meeting other S Africans in North Shore City, Auckland
« on: January 04, 2009, 04:54:01 PM »
I would love to meet other SA families living on the North Shore, but am unsure how to go about it.  All the social groups I have heard about seem to be aimed specifically at Afrikaans speaking people.  Anyone out there?

Then fit in with the Afrikaans speaking people.  I think why most of the events look like this as a big majority of the Afrikaans speaking people are living on the north shore.  We are in Howick which seems more mixed english and afrikaans south africans.

That could be good I have not made it to any of the others yet and it would be so great to meet more of you in person

Hey Emmerentia!  I did sms you but did not know your details had changed.  Our email address is shellmike@xtra.co.nz.  I will send my phone number to Nardas.  Is his cell number still the same?
Chat to you soon.
