Any Wiltshire, Dorset, Hampshire Americans?
« on: June 13, 2013, 11:53:44 AM »
Hi ladies (and the very few fellas). Any expats living in Dorset/Hampshire/Wiltshire area? I have met a few ladies in my town but seems they have survived without UK-Yankee.

Heya.  :) I'm in Salisbury. Just met up today with another lady who lives here and contacted me via meetup.com - there's a few of us around!

ETA: There's also a meetup group that gets together monthly-ish in Winchester. I think the next plans in the works are for a Fourth of July get-together. No concrete details on that, but thought I would let you know in case anything like that takes your fancy!

Ah, I see you got it. Here it is anyway, though... 'cause I can.  ;D

http://www.meetup.com/American-Expats-in-Hampshire-Winchester-Southampton-etc/

As I mentioned before, the details for the July meetup are still in the works so I'm pretty sure the next scheduled event is not actually happening as the website states. The meetup will be the weekend of the 6th/7th, but that's about all I know for right now.

You just moved to Salisbury fairly recently, right? I think I remember you PMing me about places to live. Anyway... I've got plenty of free time on my hands at the moment and always up for coffee/lunch/whatever!

I'm in Winchester and haven't been to any expat meetups (been in England for 8 years).  Maybe it is time to change that as this meetup is close to me.   :)

I too am not an American, but British, but consider myself an "adopted" American, meaning that I affiliate myself more with America and its people than with the UK. I live in Dorset, very near Salisbury, as well, and would very much love to join your group!!

Please can you PM me, if you would welcome me in to join you to share many wonderful stories of America, I would be really grateful!! ;D ;D
