Hello all you people in the UK forum...

[ajames79 0]

Morning...Brits..or people married to Brits.

Just saying hello as I've not been around for a while!

So my thread today will be about *drum roll* Your favorite thing that has happened this summer?

Fall is approching...winter will follow! But what happened to you this summer that was just fantastic!?

For me...without a doubt...Our Wedding. Was fantastic.

Next...Chris and I took a camping trip together. First time for him...and we just had a great time. Just the two of us! So now I think it has started a thing with us. We will try and go as much as possible. So we found yet another thing we like to do together.

Anyone want to come?

Best thing? Seeing my Dad; he came over for a month in June/July. Hadn't seen him for nearly 8 months.

Edit: Oh and...*waves* to OP!!

Can I have two?

Absolutely number one: moving here on August 19th. Overwhelming, exhausting...amazing!

Number two: floating in a pool in San Diego, CA with the boy at 9 at night, staring up at the stars and palm trees, and feeling that London was about a million miles away. It was the most peaceful I have felt in years, and I got to share it with the person I love more than any other.

For me it is definitely that we ffianlly were able to file our I-129f petition. Sure we'll wait an eternity more, but we're in the game and will see it through to the finish!!

P.S. Great to see you Amanda - glad all is well with you and you husband!!

Realising that I had met my soulmate and getting engaged and buying a stunning wedding dress......I would say filing I-129F but in no way is that a pleasant experience just nessecary means to a very pleasant end!

Just being able to see stars without the light pollution of London is fabulous anyway! I lay in bed at night, looking out of the window thinking, wow, I never knew there were so many of them. Wonderful!

'Nothing' nice happened to me this summer - it was the pits..

the worst summer of my life from every angle...

Is 'nothing' - 'something' ?

sorry to inject a hint of the real world - I am a bit of a 'social realist' you know...

Living in the US, I probably wont see rugby ever again....just those big fat guys with helmets and foam strapped to them and little white tea towels hanging down the front of their licra pants...no blood to speak of at all - puffs

Dunno about the no blood thing. A boy on my son's school's football team had his shoulder dislocated and the skin ripped open. That was pretty bloody...

Gordon Brown lost an eye at rugby - just losing an arm or something is pansy stuff

Well, there have been a few American football players who have ended up as quadraplegics from injuries sustained while playing the game. Is that manly enough for you?
