I've got through most of the relocation issues, but I think the main thing I'm experiencing is feeling a bit 'cut-off'. I'm single so I live on my own and I can only really catch up with my Uk friends /family at the weekends.

Be good to hear from any other Brits in the Fairfield/ New Haven area!

Welcome to BE. We're in CT just north of Hartford. Lucky you you're close to Madison (The British Shoppe).

Welcome to Connecticut! I think you'll love it here. The summers are just fabulous. I'm East of Hartford, past Manchester and Bolton (sounds like England innit?).

I live in Vermont every other weekend.

Kinda behind Equinox Mountain... Bring your kids to the old quarry at Manchester... it's now the deepest swimming hole around. I have nightmares about the local kids hitting the rocks from diving in.

I jumped in with my clothes on last summer and feaked out when I saw huge fish.

"Westport" and "normal" is, well, unlikely...unless normal is rather wealthy

I've lived in Connecticut a while (in Newtown) - you'll find there's plenty of Brits around.

And Connecticut is rather nice

Normal? Most of us on this site would be offended by that slur!
