I don't have any girl friends in London to hang out with, I only really 3 friends that I see and they are guys, and all my family live in Wales. I feel I have no life... I am always skint, I do work but have go myself in debt over the past 2years after helping someone out. I just feel so alone and don't know how to make girl friends, every body seems to have their own group of friends and I'm quite a shy and timid person so I guess it can make things harder.

This is a good place to start! I made most of my friends when I went to college and through previous jobs. So maybe taking up a short interest course might be a way to do it and you would all have one thing in common already, you all decided to take the course!

Join a free club doing something that you enjoy or take up a free/cheap evening course- you're bound to meet people there. Also ask you male friends if they know any women they could introduce you to as you're feeling a bit lonely. What about your work colleagues? Try inviting some over for dinner one evening. It's okay that you're shy, just be yourself- friends will come.

Check out www.gumtree.com/london
There are lots of social events, etc. listed on there.
I recently moved to Edinburgh from Australia, and found lots of events, etc. via the Gumtree there.
Also, I joined a group called The Tangerine - they organise free and cheap events in my city for singles or groups, and is a nice way to meet people.
There's one London based style group called http://www.thesocialservice.com/
Oooo, and when I first moved to the UK, I joined a book club (if you like reading!) We meet in a cafe or pub every two weeks, is great.
Check out something like this, you meet some quality people! :)
Good luck!
