Americans in the Helensburgh area?

My Husband and I are Moving to the Helensburgh area in approx 8 weeks and thought it would be nice to chat with some fellow Americans in the same area.

Not in Helensburgh but Kings Park area

i'm a Floridian living in Coatbridge!! 

Well I just got here, so I'm not really sure where kings park or coatbridge are but hello fellow floridans! 

Neither of them are near you, unfortunately.   Hope
It all goes well with your settling in!

they're not too far, we're all a short train ride from Glasgow away!

I suppose you're right by American standards. 

I just remember when my boyfriend was still in Helensburgh, and i was in Glasgow, that felt annoyingly distant.  I absolutely hated having to plan everything around the Scotrail timetable!

Doesn't the 75 or 34 bus go thru there ?

No... neither of those buses go anywhere near Helensburgh.  But the 1 does!.. cant remember if it's the 1a or the 1b.

hmm ok thanks

I posted this earlier, but it seems to have vanished... sorry if you're seeing it twice! 

My partner is from Helensburgh and works there, although we now live in the west end of Glasgow.  We will probably move back to Helensburgh when we retire.  It's a nice wee place... hope you are enjoying it so far (even with the streets being torn up at the moment!).

I often hear North American accents when I'm there, so if that's what you're seeking, hopefully you won't have to look far.

Hello Helensburgh and welcome! There is a train that goes from Helensburgh into Glasgow, but I am not sure about buses.  I am also in the West End of Glasgow. If you ever make it into the city please email and maybe we can get a small group together for a drink and chat.

I'm here and have no problem hopping the train to Glasgow.. would love to have a meet up!!

one of my posts have vanished also .. If anyone would like to meet up let me know daytime is ok also I'm not working

Welcome to Scotland (by now I think)!  My family and I are down the road a bit by Broxburn.  Just a short drive or train ride to Helensburgh.  I hope you love it here.
