Hi guys
Just moved to Mahebourg recently after a long time in the north.  So I was wondering if there are expats around Mahebourg and Blue Bay who wants to meet up for a drink, meet fellow expats and make new friends.
Time and place to be fixed later on.


Cheers

Hi all
I am semi retiring to Mauiritus in the next few weeks and am researching areas to put down roots.  Would love to know about the Blue Bay area - I believe the beaches are good what's the social life like and are there any mature expats in the area/
Thanks

clintonjay

Hi Barbara,

From my own point of view Blue Bay is a nice and lovely area to settle.  You can always come down to King Savers or London Way to do your shopping.
And yes there are lots of mature expats around this area. The Social life here depends on what you want to engage yourself into, but in all am sure you will like it.

Blue Bay on a Sunday, the more that it will be during school holidays, might be overcrowded.. My humble opinion ! ;)

ksldi

Hey that sounds good to me!! Booked it in my diary! See you all then!

TamarG

Hi All,

Are we still meeting on Sunday at Blue bay beach and where? We need a place as it'll be very crowded judging by the last time we went down there.

Cheers,
Tamar

Hi

How about we meet somewhere near the tree that grows on the beach (towards the right-hand end of the beach if looking out to sea)? That's the only land mark I can think of...

Date: Sunday August 9th, 2015
Place: Blue Bay Beach
Time:  12 noon
Food, Drinks..bring and share!!

TamarG

Are there tables near there? Might be good to grab one! How many are coming?

Tamar

Hi,

Always motivated, of course why not?  When and where could we reorganise it?

It could be fun!  Anyway, last Saturday I went to Blue Bay and had a very good time.

See you..

Steph :)

One of my friends turned up and she could see no one around the area that was stated, she wandered around the beach looking but eventually went back home - Maybe if you re organise you should private message people with a contact telephone number and then peeps can ring to check its still on, especially as you were the organiser ;)
or
Tell people to PM you if they want to come :)

Although that would not have actually helped her on the day, as she did not post she was coming, as she did not want to give her name or number out as she is a single lady, she just checked the details and drove there, but I suppose she may have PM'd you if asked too.

clintonjay

Am really sorry to hear about your friend and I apologize to all.

Plz you guys should let me know if the schedule its OK...then we can finalize everything.
And yes feel free to PM  me !!

Rosiewestie

Thanks, will pass the message on when I next see her or maybe she will read these posts :)

Good luck with your next get together :)

ksldi

Hey I'm keen for the 6th September for sure! Why don't we meet up at the snack shop in the parking lot at the beach and go from there??

Unless someone has a flag or something pretty obvious for everyone to look out for?  :lol:

Lets try get this confirmed by the 4th latest :)

clintonjay

I think the Snack shop at the parking lot is very handy for anyone coming to identify the group.

Meanwhile let's confirm how many people that will be coming and know if there will be further arrangement.

ksldi

My husband and I are definitely in :)
