Intermittent postings from now
Today I move out of my house! The emigration process is truly underway now. There will be very intermittent postings for some time, depending on my ability to get near a computer while staying in a rented flat in central London between now and my departure for the Land of the Free, Home of the Brave later in the summer.
Once ensconced stateside I will return - but under a new name - www.helloamericans.com
Hope to see some of you then!

Hello,
Good luck on the great adventure. I came to the US in the fifties with my husband (part of the brain drain, I guess). It has been well worth while -- though of course there were times when I missed the UK tremendously (heart-rendingly, in fact). I am sure you well realise that the US has its problems too, but it also has a culture and a population that is, by and large, optimistic, welcoming and polite. I have been very well treated in this country and it has had a great and salutary effect on my outlook on life. Best wishes to you and your family.

Best Wishes to you and your family and and Good Luck on your move to the US and thank you for running an informative and eye-opening blog!
The US is not perfect by any means, but you're definitely doing the right thing in leaving Blighty.
Keep us posted with your observations on life in the New World
