I'm Moving to the UK in February :)

I paid for my work visa, I've got my final visa appointment on Dec 2, and I've got a plane ticket for Feb 18 (AND got reimbursed for the Zoom ticket I had before!)

I'm a little sketched out about England requiring biometrics from foreigners. I'm SO uncomfortable with having my fingerprints scanned and put on an insecure ID card for the world to see. WHY!?

Anyway, I'm super excited. Eddy is coming back for a visit from Nottingham on Dec 2 as well, until January 13. It's going to be awesome! I don't think we'll live in Nottingham when I get there though. I think he's sick of it... I think we're going to live in Lincoln and then Lancaster a few months later because he plans to go to school there.

YAY I'M SO EXCITED.

Who wants to go for a pint?

 

That's great news, I hope you enjoy it here

 

Well holy fuck, I'm from Lincoln
Although currently living in Cambridge.. Lincoln's a nice place if you avoid the chavs. Bars to *not* go into, especially if you have an Americanish accent: LN2, The Crown, Ritzy's (biggest misnomer EVER). They're crammed full of chavs.

 

Moving from Nottingham would be a GOOD move And wherever you live I hope you have an amazing time here. Yay!

 

Yeah, Nottingham is.. well.. a shithole. No other way to put it really.

 

Its the little towns and villages in Notts youve got to watch for most. Oh.my.lord
When I lived in one of them, trips to Nottingham city were a luxury break

 

Ah, Ilkeston, good times were had.. crack capital of England. Seriously. This in a town of about 3000 people..

 

how cool is that? congratulations. it sounds fun. i don't like to just travel, i like to stick around a while a get to know people and stuff.

 

What is it with Nottingham and it's crack and guns? What happened to the days of bows and arrows....I suppose that's what happens when criminals are seen as hero's....we need a new sheriff of Nottingham!

 

I liked Nottingham, I was there for six crazy years ('88-'94)

 

When I went to Nottingham I got shouted at by a woman

 

Was it me?

 

Your more likely to get shouted at by a woman in Nottingham, there are 3 women to every man.

 

Might have been:toetap05:

 

Because the men are all in prison or in the bookies

Sorry I couldnt resist :leaving: Yes Im going

 

Did I say "Ere fookin ell get' fook outa me way ya soothen twat"?

 

omg it WAS you

 

:leaving:
I meant it in the nicest possible way
Infact in Nottingham thats a compliment, roughly translating as "would you like to come over to my house for tea and maybe some bourbons?"

 

i thought that was the hooker call.

 

They even steal their local fucking heroes. Most of the early ballads place Robin Hood in Yorkshire, mostly between Doncaster and Pontefract. He's even supposedly buried in Mirfield.

I mean, what the fuck:
