Hey people,

Hoping to find a few people male or female to share coffee or dinner with or even go do something new like horse riding or archery!! OR even just a movie. Do I sound desperate or what? :o Not really, just don't like hanging out with people from work....lol

Anyway, haven't found any social clubs etc just the famous brit club, but would like to go elsewhere.

Not the right forum but also looking for language classes for arabic and farsi if anyone knows.

Thanks!!

Hi Rosie1 and Welcome to the Forum :)

If you are looking for people to hangout with, I'm sure if you look around you will find many of them ;)

But if you are selective and looking for like-minded people, it might take you some time but its not difficult.

I think after your post, your inbox will be full of friends invitations to choose from and you won't feel lonely anymore :)

All the best and keep us posted on how it goes ;)

Cheers,

Deleted-Soul

I'm in a similar situation :(

Hi Rosie! how r u? u can count me as new friend and we can have a coffee or dinner in quiet place and good atmosphere. i can teach u arabic and farsi language as u like.

rosie1

That's very kind of you! Everyone has been so friendly and sweet, I am so glad I came to this site! I will fly back Thursday so I hope to talk to some of you more very soon! 

I had an idea, how about we all get together one day/evening as a social? There seems to be plenty of us that wouldn't mind making new acquaintances/friends here...if your all interested let me know and we can set something up!

Lulu_102

That just sound like a plan, Rosie!

HamadM

Thats really nice idea,Rosie. so when would u like to get together as social in the evening? do u like to have some fun play activity like bowling or billiard or amusemnt park? or u want to have coffee or dinner in restaurant? or both as u like Rosie?

rosie1

I'm new here so give me a day or two to research and see what's going on in town, it's a holiday now, right? So I'll get back to you!

Lulu_102

Welcome back Rosie..!

HamadM

No problem Rosie! u can take ur time and whenever u decided when we can meet up so let us know

rosie1

Ok, did not sleep a wink last night due to jet lag...tired..found one thing so far here, Shakoora Riding Centre (17 591 103) , I can call and find out what the deal is and let you all know?! Hopefully tomorrow. I say what the heck lets just do it! Note: I err only rid a horse once, and it took me for a ride, so just letting you know I'm not a professional. lol

rosie1

Hey everyone,

Sorry I haven't been replying or calling, I had a busy last two weeks and I caught a cold but I am 100% back to normal now! LOL

I think everyone has been very friendly and offering numbers etc to meet for coffee, would we all like to meet on one Friday afternoon? Or saturday evening? Just so we can see where we all stand and get to know each other and discuss things to do for the future?

I wouldn't say I would normally blind date friendship (if that's even correct way to say it) but it's probably the most comfortable and safe way to do it initially. What do you think? I think Juffair would be good as it seems to be full of places!

I will be at the Dome coffee shop at 530 on Thursday and hopefully some of you will show:)

HamadM

hi Rosie!

well honestly i cant meet u in Dome coffee shop on Thurs afternoon at 5:30 cuz i will be busy on that time but we can meet up on friday afternoon or saturday morning as it will be my pleasure to meet u and everyone who gets social gathering with u

Lulu_102

Please push it to the weekend Rosie so I can make it. Thanks.

rosie1

Great the last post didn't post.....ok quick post, I guess its easier for us to meet tomorrow? Friday 530? How is that? Sorry this is late but I didn't get the response notification until 20 minutes ago. Hope to see you tomorrow?! Let me know if you guys can't make it, I'll be there anyway having a coffee I think

Lulu_102

I've promised kids to take them to movies.. If I managed to drop them home early enough, I'll be there..cheers.
