Congratulations! Made it to the UK from the US yesterday myself. Let's hope our new lives will be great!

Damn, that's great to hear. Welcome in Europe comrade.

Welcome! Weather's a bit shite at the moment and monsoon season (February to May) is just around the corner, but it'll brighten up for 2 weeks in June and for the last 2 weeks of August.

Drop me a DM if you're heading up Manchester way and I'd happily give you a tour and you're more than welcome to come over to my family's place for a Sunday Roast.

You should have seen what it was like when we left the U.S. in terms of weather. This is far better. Thanks!

You'd better have a tv license or your going to jail

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Or learn the old "eat the TV before the inspector arrives".

I guess I'm showing my age, but hopefully enough old folks get it.

Hopefully OP can live with trading "needing a TV license for a TV no one uses anymore" and "actual healthcare" for a "failing democracy turned Christian nationalist oligarchy"!
