The English invade!

I'm a member of a British expats forum, and while I don't post there a lot, there are sometimes some interesting threads. Recently someone posted looking for people who lived in Western Massachusetts, which happens to be the are I lived in.

So I responded, we exchanged a couple of private messages and set a date.

So last night saw myself, and two other English blokes, they brought their wives (mine was busy), one of whom was American, one German.

We sat down in The Peoples Pint in Greenfield, MA and we had some of their lovely micro brew beers. We chatted, we exchanged immigration stories and situations, we discussed how much we have changed by living here, wether that is our accents, our lifestyles.

We're hoping more people can join us next time, as it was a fun time. I also got to buy a real, honest to god round of drinks for the first time in over 4 years, which was rather amusing.

It's been a long week, we're both looking forward to being in bed before midnight, and not up before 7 for a change! I know I'm starting to run on fumes.
