Just Moved Back to the UK
« on: July 03, 2015, 04:48:27 PM »
Hi, I just moved back to the UK from the US.  I lived in the UK for 17 years then fancied moving back home... BUT immigration wouldn't let my husband emmigrate with me, after three years my daughter and I came back.  My husband is English and I have indefinite leave to remain here so the INS just said "go back and live over there"  Still no dill pickles over here I see.  :)  We are from South Carolina. Hello y'all guess I brought the scorching hot weather with me!

Good dill pickles can be found at M&S and Costco.

I haven't investigated M&S for good pickles.  Nothing beats a Claussen ;)

No,  nothing beats a cold kosher dill pickle. I ate 2 jars while I was back in the states last month. If only someone could make them over here!
The usual. American girl meets British guy. They fall into like, then into love. Then there was the big decision. The American traveled across the pond to join the Brit. And life was never the same again.

I now have to bring jars for my UK friends - got them hooked too!  And no nothing beats a Claussen!  When I told my US friends we don't have dill pickles - they couldn't believe it.  And when my British daughter told her So Car friends she had never had BBQ they thought she was nuts too.  Funny that pulled pork is such the rage here now, just came from the land of pulled pork. :)
