Yank in England...
Hi there ladies.. wanted to introduce myself. I am a yank living in Birmingham, England and I like rainbows, unicorns, sunshine, rugby and Cobalt my dog. My blog is attached which will give you more insight into what I do day to day for now... and my interests
I recently got married and moved over the to UK.. as a common over-achiever I am going somewhat nuts with not having a job yet. Most of the time I keep it in but everyone once and a while, and a couple bottles of wine later, it comes out worse than Niagra Falls.
We just moved into a new house that needs a ton of work so I will probably be reaching out for help as I am more of a scientists than an artist.
So yeah.. Hi!
Re: Yank in England...
Welcome!! There are quite a few of us in England... lots in London and a few in the Midlands!
Where are you from?
I've lived in London for the past 7 years but grew up in Florida.
Welcome, welcome! You are in luck that we have lots of ladies in England and many people who know a lot about reforms and such.
I'm an American living in Madrid with my Spanish H. See you around!
Hi and welcome!
Im Zoe a British woman married to a Texan currently living in Germany but moving to SC, US in just a manner of weeks!!
My cousin lives in Birmingham! - great city!
Hi and Welcome. I am a South African living in Bournemouth, UK (South West Coast).
Hi! Where in Texas? I grew up outside 20 miles southwest of Houston. I have been living in London for 2 1/2 years now and H joined a year after me. And the culture differences on some things still drive me crazy sometimes... not sure how long until you get over that. I just try to embrace the change though as I would rather be here than in the States!
Anyone who likes rainbows and unicorns is welcome here!
Good luck with settling in.
We are Canadians living in France.
Hi there!
I'm an adopted Texan (Austin) living in Oslo, Norway with my Indian ex-husband and my two Texan cats.
Hi and welcome to the board
I used to live in Birmingham (5 years) and moved to the US last year when I got married.
Which area are you in? I was living in Moseley. I didn`t like anything much about the city (Moseley was ok), I hope you have a better experience.
Cecilia arrived 12 October 2012
I don't think I have ever met an American who called themselves a Yank and from Texas no less.
I'm American, my H is English we live in London, I loved here in Dec 2007.

Hello! I think I might be the closest IN to you? I'm an American, living in Nottingham with my British husband and our 3 year old. I've been to Birmingham several times, but spent most of that time in and around the Bull Ring
Welcome to the board!
Thanks for the welcome..
I am originally a New Yorker born and raised and still carry some of the Long Island accent with me along with some of the Texas... basically I am a mess when it comes to talking here...
Brum is OK.. our house is right near the rail which has been good but as I just landed a job we will soon be car shopping and I need to take my driving test... (I do know Moseley as I play rugby for that club and lived in Selly Park before we closed on the house)
Anyways its good to know there are other people w ho have had to do the crazy uproot everything and move... I got a dog to the UK so if anyone needs advice on how to do that.. I am your girl
