Hello,

This is a new experience for me, but here goes anyway.

My name's Azeem and I'm originally from Middlesbrough (I know that doesn't sound anglo-saxon but I'm definately red/white/and blue!!).

I'm and Electrical Engineer and worked out in the far east before coming across to Pittsburgh in the Steel Industry. Things went to pot in the world of Steel last October and I was laid off and had a bit of a dicey time with the INS until I could get another job, swap visas from my old company and move to Chicago to take on a job in the wonderful world of Water Treatment Plants.

Divorced and living the American Dream (or just dreaming), wishing I was home and then realising it's not so bad after all! If only I could find a pub with no televisions and good non-cliquey crowds. We live in hope.

That's it in a nutshell.

If you're in the Chicago area, look me up.
