Hello - I'm from Indiana living near Manchester
« on: February 17, 2011, 11:37:24 AM »
Hello -

Im originally from Indiana and moved out to the North of England three years ago with my job.  I've actually found this forum very helpful with issues I've had with filing tax abroad, visa issues etc. and thought it might be a fun way to meet other Americans living here.

I have only stumbled across one other American living in the North since I have moved up here (at my work) and she is leaving - well only going to Liverpool.

I would love to meet other Americans while here since its nice to be able to feel a bit closer to home from time to time.

I am not really sure how much I am supposed to write when introducing myself - so I will just say that I am really happy to have found this forum and would be really interested in knowing of any other Americans who are in the Greater Manchester area.

Becky  :)

I'm in Manchester! I'm from San Diego (originally), and I live in the Victoria Park/Rusholme area. I work at the University of Manchester (as does my husband). Welcome to UKY!

Hi There- Welcome...I am not too far from Manchester, in Cheshire- Crewe to be exact.
It has been awhile since we have tried to organise a Northwest gathering, maybe it is time :)

I'm so pleased to hear that there are so many of us in the Greater Manchester area!  I was living in Sale but moved in with my fiance in Radcliffe in July.

I would definitely be up for a North-west get together!  I do not know too many people out this way and would really be nice to meet some fellow Americans!

Liverpool isn't that far from Manchester. I would love if there was a a Northwest meet up! I've been really wanting to get together with other Americans lately. Lets do it!! :D
We stole countries with the cunning use of flags. Just sail around the world and stick a flag in. "I claim India for Britain!" They're going "You can't claim us, we live here! Five hundred million of us!" "Do you have a flag …? "What? We don't need a flag, this is our home, you bastards" "No flag, No Country, You can't have one! Those are the rules... that I just made up!...and I'm backing it up with this gun, that was lent to me from the National Rifle Association."
