Any Atlanta People??

[ajames79 0]

someone might move this.

First question: We have a Biometrics in Atlanta on the 25th...I am wondering where the office is? I map quested it and I am not convinced it is correct only because they modified address in the end. Anyone been there?

Atlanta is one hour closer then Charlotte is. But I know where the office is in Charlotte! BUT we are thankful the meeting is before we leave for our honeymoonish.

Second: Where was that English Pub someone was mentioning to me in one of these threads? Was it Little 5 Points?? Thinking of going there as a treat on saturday after the biometrics. Also are there any British grocers fairly easy to find?

Okay so I asked all my questions in the Second one! But any help would be great!

Hope everyone else is doing peachy!

Well hello there!!

Nice to see you as well. Seems like you are moving right along in your time line. Ready for it to be over????")

I've been mostly lurking recently. Looking up questions on the AOS process...Ohh the paper work!

So how are ya?

Hey it was me!

I'm sorry I don't remember the directions that well, only that the pub was very close, like 5 minuets away. We used mapquest (or Yahoo maps, can't remember) and we just about got there ok

All I can tell you is the place itself is well labeled, a pretty big building and you need to go to the far end of the carpark and walk to the right, around the corner of the building is probably a sorry que waiting! For the love of gods BRING WATER because there is no shelter outside

Try not to come too early cause they let you in based on appointment times, once inside follow the other que to the left of the room, they will give you a clipboard and a form to fill out. Walk to next table to hand it in and take a seat further on, I think they either have someone calling out numbers or a display.

Sorry I didn't have the answers to the questions, it was a little while ago now and I don't drive so even when I'm concentrating I don't tend to take in routes and stuff.

I am just so relieved for our I-129f to finally be under way! Sad that VSC has slowed way down, but hey - we will get there!!!

Good luck with AOS!!

Hello!!

Im not sure what office you need to go to, as we havent received our biometric yet, but I know the Atlanta office where

Infopass appts are made etc is near Martin Luther King Dr. Probably no help at all, sorry!!!

The pub at Little Five Points is called the Brewhouse Cafe

Not sure if this link will work, but Ive signed up to be notified by email when Gunners are on the TV.

Check out the menu!!!, If you go, please let us know what the bangers and mash or fish and chips are like!

Good luck at your Biometrics!!

Hiya! Thanks that is it. Ate there before and the fish and chips were OKAY...nothing is like Englands. But I have only been there once. Just thought it might be fun to go after our interview! Will ask the husband. Thanks, I will report back!

KD: Good advice on the water. I don't have the address here at work with me but I am just cautious with what MAPQUEST brought up. Just fussing is all!

ANYONE LIKE Progressive Music? Going to see an English band at the Roxy in October!!??WILL BE FUN. (I like yelling today)

j-belle~ Thanks my dear! Good luck with your journey as well! It never is as bad as one might think! At least that was my experience!

whats Progressive music?

Is it a band?, sorry Im so out of touch, its not funny.

Me and the hubby are metalheads, with a bit of Radiohead / Siouxsie and the Banshees thrown in.

The only gig Ive been to in Atlanta was Nine Inch Nails last year, which was awesome and we went to see

The Cult in London, the last time John was in England.

I miss the london venues, the Camden underworld and the Garage, Ive yet to see small US venues, so thats something

we plan on doing the next time something of interest hits Atlanta.

HAVE FUN though!!!!

Ahh I got to see NIN in Atlanta years ago. Back when I was in high school!!

My husband is a metal head with a bit of prog rock. I like a lot of everything.

Welll this show is at the Roxy...and we are also seeing them in Asheville. We try to see them as much as possible.

Listen to a couple of songs on myspace or the likes...I really like them. Porcupine Tree is the name of the band.

I'd be happy to send you some songs if you can't find them!

We just bought tickets 10 minutes ago...as I said should be a good show, just sucks it is on a wednesday!

[chloe 1]

Ah Porcupine Tree, Ive heard of them but never heard them.

I'll check out my favourite website of ALL time...Youtube!!

Have a great time!!!

Beer and live music...theres nowt wrong with that!

You guys should go...perhaps you'll meet some other Brits!

You know me, Amanda - Rush all the way!

Chas and I just got back from seeing them in San Antonio. Sound in the venue was ####### but since I knew what I was listening to, I can tell you that they kicked a$$.

AOS has kicked our wallets in the nether regions (mine and daughters forms) so I don't think we'll be going anywhere for months!!

Have fun though!!

Im on a mission to shed the pounds Ive gained since being in the States.

Check this out..

Arrived 5th June, thats 10 weeks, Have gained 25 lbs!!! hmm...impressive eh?

shocking, none of my lovely clothes fit, even my baggy slobby jeans, fit like pantyhose..

Very depressing, but it was worth it..mmm 7 layer burrito and Reeses ice cream.

Enjoy the gig!!!

Oh lord, this made me laugh!!! NOT that I'm laughing at your weight gain, Chloe. But your description was priceless! Count yourself lucky that you didn't discover Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream or the sinful hell that is The Cheesecake Factory.

My hubby's downfall is IHOP.
