Welcome to BFP!
Melbourne is a beautiful city, I would love to go back there again.
When I lived in London and we had a very active forum and a lot of social events every week (that were originated on the forums) - we would arrange "Hand Holds" for new people wanting to come out and join us.
A person (or people) who knew the crowd/the venue/the location would arrange to meet newbies at a specific time and location; and take them to the event, introducing them to a few people as they went along.
This was really really helpful for getting over that first hurdle of walking through the door and up to a group of people - on your own.
