Re: Meet Up in D/FW Area?
OMG... there is a good Indian in Fort Worth, the Maharaja! My OH and I frequent it often... in fact I will be going into town later and I am sure I will stop by for a take out!
The address is: 6308 Hulen Bend Blvd, FW, 76132 Don't know how far that is for you, about 40 mins for me. Maybe you should MapQuest it and let me know! If you know of an Indian restaurant nearer to you that would be great... I am all for trying new Indians!!! LOL! If we can get a few more of us Brits together that would be awesome too! |

They also do a get in between 5 and 6pm and buy one get one free or half price can't remember exactly, it's the bloody hormones sometimes I go to scream at my son and have a senile moment and I can't remember his bloody name, by the time I remember I can't remember what he was getting screamed at for. Well I'm off for a shower as I've been busy on here and cleaning house, oh what fun cleaning house is :( Why we didn't get a compact little trailer I'll never know. Got to have a mega phone to shout Marc for his tea!;) Laters |

TRACEY!!! :unsure: I TOTALLY agree about the 'cleaning' thing... we bought a bigger house to ensure that when we had the 'masses' over to visit we would all have plenty of room... brilliant idea at the time... but guess who cleans the place!!! And I know it's daft but I still iron all the bedsheets etc (I mean, who does that anymore)... my Mother has ALOT to answer for! :frown: Compact trailer... hmmm... in tornado country and in this furnace!!! But I agree with your sentiments! I'll catch up with you later... I have to hang around at home this afternoon because I have a guy coming to give me a quote on kitchen countertops... then off to the city I go! What an exciting life I do lead!!! At least it's not raining anymore! |

Sounds good but I would need the physical address... so... we have the place, now the question is, when?
Is there anyone else in the DFW area who would drive to Hulen (South FW) to have a curry night?? For those in the Big dirty D (Dallas), Hulen is just along the I-30 (about 40 mins from downtown). |

I'm up for the one in Hulen, that's kinda half wayish, and would be better most than the Clay Pit.

Re: Meet Up in D/FW Area?
I've only visited D/FW once and unfortunately it lived up to all of my stereotypes, way too many road side chapels, and the place I was visiting for work was in a town called White Settlement. I'm assuming it was named after a guy called Mr. White....So all you D/FW residents tell me something good about the place.....oh I did have some excellent BBQ and the people were very friendly and hospitable, in spite of me being a "pinko liberal"

Re: Meet Up in D/FW Area?
I've been searching the web a little... there is a small group of Brits here called The Dallas & North Texas Brit Club... I have signed on to see what it's like... they meet once a month plus have other events organized.
With saying that, I am still in for a meet up from here, looks like texas ranger and his wife, texas mum are in... anyone else, or are we the only ones interested in a get together? |

I have been here in Arlington ( "Fun central"the signs say) for 4 1/2 years and still love it. I am originally from Loughton in Essex. White settlement? Not a man named Mr White. the name comes from when this area was inhabited by native Americans, its where the white people settled. The city tried to change it 2 years ago and put it to the vote but the people spoke and it stayed the same. Also home of Lockheed Martin who build the F-16 jet and lots more. My wife ( a Texan) and i would be up for a meet somewhere, I know there is a "British"pub in Fortworth on Hulen not sure of its name though not far from the Maharaja indian resturant. Thoughts and prayers to the Brit family in Richardson who had just moved from UK 2 weeks ago. EB |

Not my cup of tea as I'm still a youngster, a very nice bunch of ladies though. Oh forgot maybe I was at a ladies only thingy!!! |

EB The Bombay Bazaar that's next door to it is a good place to stock up on certain British groceries too. Anytime I pick up a curry at the restaurant I run in to to the Bazaar to stock up on proper Weetabix and Ribena.:thumbsup: |

TexasMum and I have been in touch by PM, (note: thanks for the tip on the Dallas club, I am older, 40 something, but still very much 'young at heart'!) It seems most of you live in the North or Central whilst I am all alone in the South West... :blink: I think we all just have to set a date and place... then go from there. This weekend is no good for me, but anytime thereafter is a Thunderbird go! |
Re: Meet Up in D/FW Area?
There are quite a few Brits in the DFW area.
BTW, another good source of English fodder is ... http://www.british-emporium.com/ ... which is just around the corner from us. |
