That is me trying to use the ol' British lingo (you should hear my British accent--it is quite authentic!
)!
I have thought of joining this website for some time now (about a year) and have finally decided to!
I am an aspiring writer who is originally from California and who has been living in the U.K. for over 3 years now. What brought me here one might ask? Well,
love did...I met and fell in love with a charming and 'wonderfie' Brit--the earth trembled, every star alighted in the sky and thus, we got engaged! I first came to England on a fiancee visa, we wed here overseas and was then upgraded to a marriage visa and as of last June, I became a holder of, 'Indefinite Leave To Remain'.
As of January this year, I became a mother to our own little, 'Ameri-Brit hybrid'--a beautiful and radiant baby boy. We recently applied for his U.K. Passport and are awaiting its arrival in the mail.
Oh and I miss home quite a bit! I have my gripes about Britain (oh boy do I!) though it is a fine country--a lovely one in many aspects...But of course, one inherently tends to miss their roots--their families...I come from an especially beauteous place back home too...
I have to say when I hear/see my fellow Americans travelling about--I think rather nostagically of them as my 'kin'! So hello, fellow "Yankee-Doodle-Dandies"--it is spiffy to meet you all!
