There is a Group called the BABC the British American Business Council ?? Could be a good start and a pub an English one in Charlotte I think, you may like to look on yahoo groups in the meet up section too! We run one here in Atlanta and have 150+ members.. You can always log on to us to chat in the meantime if you wish drop me a line …

Try to find football or English shops you never know!!

Good luck with it.

hi all
just arrived in Kernersville (near Greensboro) and would love to hear and meet up with any brits who live in the area.
This is the firat time to the US so would appreciate meeting some of my own.

Hi,

I used to live in Winston-Salem which is right next to Kernersville, I am south of you in Charlotte now. Just wanted to welcome you to the site. How are you finding NC?

Ack...I can't believe it I'm just in Greensboro but unfortunately I'm leaving for the UK on Wednesday..your timing is impeccable.

There are a couple of peeps here in the area and I'm sure they'll be along later to say Hi.

Hello and welcome to NC..

Welcome to both the US and BE. Oh, and welcome to NC.

The only time I was in Kernesville was a few years ago when I tracked down some delicious NC barbecue at a restaurant in the town. I think the restaurant's name was Clarke's or something similar.

I live in Durham, east of you.

Hi Lavenderbud,

Hi , I have just joined this site today and not sure of my way around yet !
I am living in Grandy , Currituck county near the Outer Banks, I arrived here in December 2008 and I am taking a lot of time to settle in as its so quiet around here , not driving yet so hard to move around unless my husband takes me , have met only one Brit who has been here 31 years or more but would love to meet more people , I met a girl yesterday who was married to a 'Geordie ' guy from UK so hopefully I may get to know them,
Its a lonely life and not what I was used to as I lived in Cyprus previous to moving here , that was a great place to live, lots of activity ,friends and stuff to do , hopefully my immigration procedures will be cleared up sooner than later and that will enable me to obtain my drivers liscence and move around a bit, i am at present awaiting an interview for permanent residence status , complicated by a posetive TB test and a clear x-ray....( sigh ) wish me luck

Hi LB, I'm in High Point/Jamestown been here 15 months now.

Hi candyfloss welcome to BE. I am in NC but quite a distance from you in Charlotte.

I expect it is difficult for you at the moment as you are in a sort of no man's land, but it will get easier ... promise. In the meantime come back and visit BE often and interact with everyone. We've got a great bunch of members.

Thank you very much Sue, I am sure it will be ok in the future , good news today I have all my medical docs etc ready and complete ready for my interview with immigration at t he end of the moonth , my TB scare I had was sorted and I had a clear bill from the doc !
Will sure come and visit whenever I am able as it seems a good site to find good friends

That's good news, you are one step closer then.
