Hello from the other side of the world, all programmers I have ever met are socially awkward in some way that includes me. You might want to do a meet-up with some meetup website, but prepare yourself a meet-up has no stack overflow at hand so you'll be talking with people who know stuff that you can't just lookup streight away. A Hackathon is also a great thing to try.

Hi Adam, thanks for the advice. Thankfully there's no stack overflow at meetups! Wow that site is hard work! Haha. I'm pretty ok being the dumbest guy in the room, it's pretty cool being surrounded by people who are very good at what they do. Worst comes to worst I'll just eat the pizza! Haha. A hackathon though... That'd be tough, and I'd really let the team down, so won't be doing one of them any time soon.
