Re: San Antonio TX Anyone??
How are you settling in? I too have been here for a few months now and generally I love it here (although who knew that Americans were such manic drivers???????). Have you found the Lion and Rose or The Flying Saucer? At least you can get some beer here but nothing like at home! I finally bought a car in the last few weeks because without one you get nowhere over here and I was sick of fluttering my eyelashes at the guy friends I have to get lifts LOL!

Re: San Antonio TX Anyone??
Hi Dukey!
I'm just up the road from you at UTSA. Yes, a very mature student!!! LOL! I am in my early 40's. I get to "mother" all the little 20 year old girls with boyfriend problems (). Got a career break and decided to do a second BSc but this time in Biology with a Chemistry minor. Although at this time of year with finals looming I do actually wonder why I did it! LOL! What are you doing at UT? Post Doctorate Research?
I've been in the Flying Saucer a few times usually if any of us go for dinner at Saltgrass (good food!) or the cinema (although my local is Silverado on Bandera). Miss the sport on television over here but don't miss the awful soaps that were taking over on Brit TV.

Arsenal??? Sorry, do they play football???
I was born four miles from Old Trafford - now that's football. LOL!
But seriously, yes, it would be good for a group to get together, watch the match, have a pint etc.
What is your post-doc field?

Re: San Antonio TX Anyone??
Tx sucks lol, Why did you do that? california is way better. I moved from NY to phoenix and now live in Austin. People love it here cos they have been no where else. The best things about Texas include Luby's, Fiesta because they sell english food lots more than world market and thats its. Its been raining here none stop and the bugs are massive and the people are backward lol.
Hope to move back to phoenix next year where the weather is always better and there opening Tescos!! wooooohooooo lol.
The best thing about tx also the riverwalk, but even that isnt very big. The houses are cheap and big but there is a reason for it being cheap lol.
I would rather live in a condo somewhere nice and not live with the hicks.
P.S. dont go to corpus it sucks
