Ps. Does your Brit husband ever come on here?

1. Brit is capitalized.
2. If that is Brit humor, I hope I never "get it."
3. My husband thinks that most (look carefully, I typed "most" not all because I do not want you to misread my post) of the Brits on here are miserable _ _ _ _s, so he rarely posts (just lurks). He thinks I'm crazy because I do.

Same with my husband.

He did have a look at the forum before we ever moved over to the US, but he doesn't do complaining very well and he actually settled in the US better then I did. Which could explain why I stayed on BE longer.....

I'm not convinced some of these non-posting husbands of the American ladies on this board even exist.

They exist, they just know who butters their toast

. Mine is sat on the sofa watching Skye sports right now after taking me out to a nice meal and beer at our local. After I let him have his fill of telly, he will proceed to make me a very happy American lady and I will forget about all the nasty English blokes on this board that try to give British men a bad name.
