I'm starting to think my hubby is an anomaly - he has no problems adjusting here whatsoever - in fact, he doesn't miss England one bit. Well, unless you include missing a pint of London Pride, or a good curry or kebab, like there's no tomorrow. :lol:

Sorry I am a bit late to the thread.

Welshie, wishing you all the best in this chapter- don't be a stranger and don't you dare unfriend me on FB!!!

Think of me when you are just a stone's throw away from family's houses for a cuppa, enjoying a good curry, fish n chips, jaffa cakes, hoping on a bus to the shops, having a pint at the local pub, NEXT store shopping, having decent working conditions at work, living somewhere that actually has all 4 seasons, crumpets, lemon curd, Mr Kipling, Pease pudding, Yorkshire puds, decent sized turnips, Marks & Sparks, Coronation Street.....sigh....

damn...now I want to go back too......lol!

Sincerly all the best.

luv Michele xx

IK HOU VAN JOU, MARK

Take a large, almost round, rotating sphere about 8000 miles in diameter, surround it with a murky, viscous atmosphere of gases mixed with water vapor, tilt its axis so it wobbles back and forth with respect to a source of heat and light, freeze it at both ends and roast it in the middle, cover most of its surface with liquid that constantly feeds vapor into the atmosphere as the sphere tosses billions of gallons up and down to the rhythmic pulling of a captive satellite and the sun. Then try to predict the conditions of that atmosphere over a small area within a 5 mile radius for a period of one to five days in advance!

I make great curry!!! (Just ask Mags. lol) One thing I love about our move to Metropolitan DC is the plethora of ethnic restaurants. We've already found an amazing Indian restaurant here. I just can't find amazing Fish and Chips. :(

I use Mrs.Patak's paste as my base (I'm an OK cook, not brilliant), but the end result is always pretty good. When you can make the hardened youth of America break a sweat just eating, you know it's good :devil:

I just wish the other half liked curry :(

Patak's is awesome! My husband had never had curry before he met me. He wasn't too keen on it, at first, but now he loves it. Yay!

My friend's husband wouldn't even allow her to cook it in the house so she used to come over to mine for some. lol. But now he not only lets her cook it, he's even started eating it!
