Waiting for a NOA2 from CSC for your I-129F?

Oh I know! But they make you pull the snaps at customs if you declare them so go careful!! First time Jeremy came over we sent him home with bunches of them for his family and things and he had to pull all the snaps - only when he brought out the third box did the customs lady let him just keep them as they were! :lol:

It has a snap in the middle and one person grabs each end - when you pull it you get a paper hat, a crappy joke and a piece of tat toy you don't want!

Gor blimey, ladies -- no wonder the sun never sets over the waves that the Britannia Empire rules! We Yanks across the pond should indeed feel inferior, verily, wot, si man. God save our gracious Queen's choicest gifts in store, particularly the Christmas cracker.

or, as I posted in the Christmas Cracker thread (yes, there is one ), according to Fortnum & Mason there's an 'item of amusing headgear' inside, which is entirely too toffee-nosed for any right-thinking person

Crimbocrap, piece of tat toy, toffee-nosed... can we please speak ENGLISH here? Methinks that someone has adulterated your spots of tea, verily, wot. (If so, it sounds promising, and I want some, si man.)

And everything you ever wanted to know about Christmas crackers.

Right, Mox -- Christmas crackers, si; chop-suey roosters, no!

Lol - I think they just dismantled the snaps so they crackers were still in one piece but he had two mini boxes of nine and a big box of six... something like that

I think they realised he wasn't going to try and blow the plane up with them in the end

well, old bean, that's about as English as it gets

[TBoneTX 48,212]

But I, a mere Colonist, can speak "east-Texas Redneck." To wit, wot:

"Gitchurass over here, Verleen -- yer late fer yer nahn-uh-clock whuppin'. Ah'm gonna smack yew flush upsahd th' jaw. An' fer th' LAST COTTON-PICKIN' tahm, Verleen, Ah am NOT takin' mah transmission OUT uh th' bathtub! Now shut yer yappin' mouth an' brang me anuther case o' beer."

We who speak in this fashion are graced with such names as BillyBobBubba, and our family trees have one branch (the trunk). Can the U.K. top THAT? Ha!

I dunno - I am sure my OH has a family fit for Jerry Springer...

That's UK by marriage, not by innate quality.

You've obviously never been to the east end of London.

innit

You've obviously never been to the east end of London.

I would almost rather first visit a place allegedly called (heaven help me) Leighton Buzzard. Why is this buzzard different from all other buzzards?

[StillThePrettiest 4]

if you have to ask, you can never understand

east end is the BEST end

[TBoneTX 48,212]

if you have to ask, you can never understand

I intrepidly performed a Google search and have learned all that anyone would care to know about the charming, well-organized (whoops: -organised) towns of Leighton Buzzard & Linslade.

Forget an NOA2 -- my NEW goal is to receive the Title of Dignity of "Burgess of Leighton-Linslade" (a great honor... whoops: "honour"). Maybe I can bribe their Town Crier (they have one) to sow the political seeds for me.
