Re: UK to AK
Hellooooo MGH.AK !!! great to see another Brit moving to the great land 
I've been here 3 years now and I'm loving it. I'm out in the valley between Wasilla and Palmer which is about an hours commute into Anchortown.
If you need any information or help with your move shout me via private message and I'll do what I can to help.

I have probably already driven past your house a couple of times :-) I shall wave next time. I shall also make a list of questions for you, if that's OK :-)

Re: UK to AK
I made it!
Arrived four weeks ago, with a bad cold and jet lag.
It's been a long process, and at times a " one step forward, two back" as the boxes I ticked weren't all the straight forward ones :-(
Now waiting for my SSN so we can set a date to get married, before I get deported! I don't want to add deportation to my Bucket list :-)
Wishing you all a great 2013 :-D
