Where in QLD are you planning to live? It is a big state. Someone will help you out with info for the area you plan to move to.

Hi Shaun,

How can you go wrong in Australia?

Looks like Little Britain is getting another member!

Queensland has an excellent selection of friendly Clubs, perhaps you should contact them?

Hi Shaunboy1492
I emigrated to Brisbane Queensland 35 years ago and it was the best move we could have made.
I'm back in the UK at the moment on family business in Birmingham so if you want to have a chat I can tell you all about Brisbane and the local trials scene. My email address is [email protected], or call me on 0121 747 6478
Cheers

This site has all of the Queensland clubs in its club information. It really depends on where in Brisbane you move to. Graham.

Hi Shaun,
I moved to Australia 25 years ago from Barnsley (just down the road from you by Ausi standards) then transfered to Brisbane from Sydney 20 years ago. I live between the City and the Bay, Gumdale if your checking on line. Best move I ever made you will love here. Drop me a pm if I can help in any way at all.
Regards,
Sharpie.
