Re: Anyone having problems in Arizona?
I didn't 'walk out' in the sense that I abandoned the UK. I had no choice to leave at the time if I wanted to get married to the woman I fell in love with (who happened to be an American) as it wasn't an option for her to move to the UK at the time.
Right now I don't consider myself 'just visiting' rather than stuck here as I can't see a way to get us all living in the UK. I'm literally only here to be with my wife, and I feel no obligation to down play my pride in being British, nor does anybody I know feel offended by it. I don't knock the USA, I've nothing personal against it, it's just not for me.
We all left the UK, but some of us do still long to return.

The situation has been worse for some than others.

I know somebody who has actually met Sheriff Jo, admittedly socially, and he is nearly as much a cynic as me but was reasonably impressed.

It opens for me. It refers to the Az DPS and doesn't include Maricopa Co Sheriffs Dept.

Oh and she wants 'her' Range Rover shipping from the U.S.A to the U.K, i've told her there are plenty of Range Rovers in the U.K. but she says, this one is hers, and she will drive it until it dies..
If/when we do move back to the UK, We plan on keeping our house in Arizona, and doing vacation rentals with it to help with its small mortgage..
She seen an old documentary recently on UK schools, it showed the kids singing in the morning assembly, it melted her... and she says she wants her son to be 'just like me'..

My wife is American, but she loves the U.K. its just the weather and food she is hesitant about, but 6 weeks paid vacation, universal healthcare, excellent education and weekends in Europe trump 2/1 week road trips and weekends in Rocky Point..
