Re: Any Brits in Augusta GA?

I'm about 80 miles North of you, not too close and I'll hazard a guess that we probably don't share similar backgrounds but if you're into soccer I know there's a bunch of Liverpool fans gather at...

Re: Renewing US passport - current times

Well, don't I feel the stupid one! My UK passport arrived on my doorstep today, 24 days after application. :o

Re: Renewing US passport - current times

I'm a bit late to the topic but why did they need your Naturalization certificate, do you not have a US passport?

I have just gone through the process of renewing mine, the Passport office only...

Re: Moving to USA

I've relocated to SC from FL and spend 50% of my time working in the mountains in NC.
You are talking of an area larger than the UK, there's a heck of a lot to be had or absolutely diddly squat,...

Glad we got out of FL, it was a hellhole.

Re: Catherdral City Substitution

Cathedral City is a bit meh as far as Cheddar is concerned, it's always available at our local Publix. I find that the Welsh cheddar Black Bomber is a far better cheese and sold at all Ingles which...

Re: Another small step to becoming more American.

Re: Let's talk about cars

Bloody deer are a pain in the butt around here too, almost as much as the drivers.

Re: Moving to America and very worried.

Thank God, the last thing we need in the US is a British, moped riding, football hooligan who drinks far too much and uses roofies to score with the girls. Bloody 20 somethings, they're all the same...

Sorry for delay, only just opened this thread after my last reply. I can't remember what the stealership said was the problem but I don't think I took much notice at the time. I have it...

Re: Let's talk about cars

Feel for you, that's the same shitty transmission that's in our Focus. Luckily US owners had already finished hauling Ford over the coals when we bought without knowing of the problem. So, we get 3...

Re: Price of gas update...

Still falling here, $2.909 from the Murphy's, which I can be certain saying won't be a Top Tier supplier. Bizarrely enough I have noticed that my mpg seem to be marginally better when I have gassed...
