hi everyone,
                  my names chris, and im currently living in springfield Mo......but moving back to Britian in May 2005. I was born in Cardiff Wales in 1983, and lived their most my life....and then in september 2003 moved over here to be with my wife joni(wasnt then my wife, long story as most of thsi sort of thing is . she is also on this forum(jonieverson).
well we haver decided to move back to britian on the good old spouse visa(called up to chicago, just to check we could do it, and we can..........we just have to go back up there in March to apply.....all a same day thing which is cool).
really lookign forward to goign back home, missed the uk allot, cant wait to show joni all of the joys of the uk(she has only been once and that was only for a week and a bit)

well, looking forward to getting to know you all. pardon my spelling, i have an awful grasp of it..you wouldnt believe a actually passed English Language A level

Hi Chris

Welcome to UKYankee. Will you be moving back to Cardiff or somewhere else in the UK? Hope you and your wife find this site useful, just ask if you need to know anything

cheers
Liz

hi liz,
         thanks for the welcome. yeah, we are moving back to Cardiff at first for a few reasons...
1. all my family are there
2. joni is going to uni at glamorgan university
3. before i moved here, i was in a cardiff band that had allot of success in the south of wales. me and joni have formed a band(we also have a drummer who is coming to britian with us on a student visa), so most of my contacts in the area will be very useful to get the band established.

i know cardiff really well, so i think thats kinda cool for joni, cos at least i knwo where everything is. we are taking our time to go round britian, i want to show joni all that britain has to offer before we decide which part to settle down in.
       looking forward to a good curry and a pint of Brains SA

may i ask your story? lol, u dont have to tell, a few lines will some up (hehe, i now how boring it can get telling the same story over and over again, no matter had spectacular it is

Mmmmmm - Brains Dark Mild.  Mmmmmmmm.

There's a thread in the Expat Life section near the top about how it all began for some of us - might want to have a read through there! 

Hi Chris-- Welcome!
We look forward to hearing more from you!

Hi Chris and welcome from me as well.  I have always liked people who have a chance to live their dreams no matter what they are.  I would have loved to be a musician but unfortunately can't sing nor play anything other than my CD's!

I wish you the best of luck!

I even have trouble playing cd's at times 

Welcome to UKY, Chris!
