Hey there, I recently moved to the Bay Area and am looking to catch up with a few brits for a couple of pints. Was born in Northants, did my time in London and eventually made the move out here however I just need to chatter with Brits! Cheers! Steve

I'm in the South Bay, where are you located?. There's a Brit Meetup group that regularly gets together for curry and beer. Not sure when the next one is but if you look on the meetup website and search for expats you should find it.

Hey there Gail0202, thanks for the response! I live in Santa Clara, close to Rivermark, however I work in MountainView. How about yourself? How long have you been here? Just haven't found any brits around here so it would be great to know if any are around for beers and banter!

I'm in Los Gatos but have also lived in Santa Clara, Mountain View and most of the cities in the South Bay I moved here 16 years ago, originally from Scotland. I met and married my other half here and he's also from Scotland (go figure!). I moved over here with a bunch of Brits (worked for a US company on a British product) and I still have a LARGE network of British friends here, although we're scattered throughout the Bay Area and beyond now.

Are you around one Friday evening? I could try and get a few Brits together at CB Hannegans in Los Gatos for a beer.
