Jennifer-
Does that mean you are officially HERE now? How are you settling in?
Hi Kat,
Glad that you asked,
I typed an update last night, only to have lost it after losing connection with the internet
Anywho, I thought I would come on today and try again,
You know, it's really different this time around. It's almost like my frame of mind has changed so much that it's all not so bad over here. Last time I moved over, hubby had already found a job and chosen the place for us to live. I hated it. I felt that most of the people were snobby and the property was way out of our reach. Of course, I later found that the people only seemed snobby on the surface and ended up making some friends in the end. The property problem was there to stay though. I know that this was not only in Berkshire with the property prices, but it really is rip off central.
Hubby has two interviews next week. One in Leicester and one in Sheffield. Neither place jumps out and says "fabulous" to us, but we are going along anyway to see what it's like. Hubby also has an interview lined up here in Bristol. I'm liking it here at the moment. Aside from the fact that the house prices are a smidgen cheaper, I like the amenities here. A huge mall, TGIF's, WB cinema, other American style restaurants, Starbucks, and a university. It does seem to be a happening place. The people seem pretty nice too.
We'll see.
Again Kat, thanks for asking.
I know there are a few members on here who live in Sheffield, Leicester, and Bristol. I would appreciate it if you could give me your opinions on these places--good and bad,
Thank you.
Jenny
