Come on guys.Your making me home sick after 15 years.

You cannae get nothing like that here in Jacksonville.

But if you have any leftovers.I can give you my address.

I'm making most of it...all going to plan I'm heading over pond in march! I love haggis...going o miss it bad! Round here I usually know the name of the sheep it came from!

Got some scottish brie, oatcakes, rannoch smoked venison and loch fyne oysters as appertisers.....I'm cooking for 15 tomorrow...my whole family and some friends saying " see ya later" to Nick! To finish things off...doing toast with my bruichladdich and the grand finale..................port ellen 1981

Your making me jealous.Dont worry i am sure there are a few sheep in Nebraska.

Have a great day.

All the best with your immigration.Get your citizenship asap so you are done with all this BS.

I am going through it all again as i am sponsoring my son.His case was complete at NVC on Nov 15th.

So hopefully he will get a January interview in London.I am coming home to do the interview with him and bring him back.First time back home in 4 years.

But i am from Dumfries so i dont know if its a good thing or not.

Ironbru is one thing my husband is going to miss more than anything. Well, that and maybe roll and sausage. I love Scotland and being able to walk 30 feet and hit 30 different bakeries with all it's fresh yummy goodness.

BTW my hubby is from Kilmarnock. I think I've been asked to bring back about 4 bottles of Johnny Walker when I come back in Jan. haha

Well Nick LOVES haggis! So glad, means he'll help me track it down when I move to NE. He doesn't like whisky though, prefers JD and coke.

Got a couple of friends coming over tonight for cocktails (using up my spirit cabinet). Nicks last Saturday night in scotland before he heads home to NE. Mojitos and margaritas aplenty tonight.

St Andrews day!!! yay It actually slipped my mind lol So what part of Scotland are we all from Im lived in Fife all my life stupid lil town called Lochgelly and I'm a Ranger FC fan ofcourse woohoo. I wonder whats going on in Eastenders and Coronation Street hmmm TV aint the same over here !!

I live in Houston...wee village with the best pub in the world, the fox and hounds. Attached to which is the best brewery in the world, the houston brewing company. It's about 15mins from glasgow airport.

From Dumfries.Lived in the states for 14years.Jacksonville Florida now but spent 12 years in New York.

I'll be heading to Grand Island, NE. Flatness and truly horizontal horizons await me!!! I'm very much a country lass so at least I'm not going to be over awed by grand scale cities in NE. Lived in Glasgow 2 years, hated city life so moved back to arseendanowhere. Much happier

When are you heading over.Do you have a date yet.

Got NOA2 couple of weeks ago. Hopefully going to head over mid-late march all going to plan.

I am from Arbroath, now live in Boston MA and have been here almost 3 years....

Hoping to go home for Christmas next year.... got the family coming here this Christmas so I am looking forward to seeing them all... it will be a full house... Oh and you should see the shopping list I sent to my Mum.... lets hope she dont have any problems at Customs....


Kez

mmmmmmmmmmm smokies!!!!!!

I'm late to the party as usual sheesh, a couple days late, anyways Happy St. Andrews day

Howz about some haggis plz, anybody got any? I havent had haggis for over a year

I'm from a wee place called Shotts, now live in Norfolk, NE freezing my butt off *sigh* been here since Nov 06

haha...discovering a wee scots community in NE!!!!!

Nice to so many NE based/bound folks here.

I'm only about a month behind you!

There must be something about Nebraskans and Scots!

Norfolk eh? I have lots of family up in that area. My grandpa's family came from the Clarkson/Stanton/ area and down in Madison (if they are a Kratchovil or Hartl they are my kin). Unfortunatly more "Jak Semas" Czech stuff than Scottish there!

How do you find Norfolk otherwise?

Although my fiance and I go and visit Nebraska, (as we are this coming January) we're planning on settling permantly in Chicago.

Downright bloody cold

Well I am from Kilmarnock, moved to London in 1997 and moved to Kansas City last year. Really miss Irn Bru, Killie pies and haggis.

It is strange that Johnny Walker whisky is cheaper 4000 miles away than it is in the store that is 15 mins walk from the factory.
