    Hey all!

    I'm living around Newcastle West, finding it terribly difficult to find people who actually have hobbies around?

    Shouldn't be this difficult as I have normal interests (I swear) :D

    Can't seem to find anything to do round here? Unemployment is melting my brain!

    Also as I'm here, I wonder if anyone would be interested in starting a ladies soccer/camogie team in an area that does not yet have one? Or indeed if anyone knows of teams looking for a coach? I'm retired through injury from both sports, have coaching experience and played at county level. Would love to stay in the game in whatever role that might be!

    Thanks in advance :D

    Raiser- yeah I was surprised too to be honest, thanks for your suggestion :)

    Thump- Thanks a lot I really really appreciate that, I'll check out all the links, and thanks for the tips. I was a bit let down when I saw no comments on my post LOL I thought i ought to give up just then. Thanks again :D

    Panda- Yeah, I'm volunteering for the Red Cross soon. Really wanna get back into coaching voluntarily obviously, just can't seem to get in touch with the right people. Or starting a team as I said, just can't seem to find connections :/:)

    Thanks all for yer help, I really appreciate it !
