Hello everyone I wanted to introduce myself before I asked you all for some advice.
My name is Glen and I moved to Fargo ND from Oxford England in June of last year.Before you all scream why would you leave civilization for Fargo let me explain.My wife Bernie is from North Dakota and after a year of living in England she became very homesick,this coupled with the fact that she was pregnant with our first child meant that we decided to move to be nearer her family and further away from England high cost of living.
For the most part Fargo is great it seems like a nice place to raise a family and the people are very friendly (as long as I don't mention politics or religion).
But as was the case with most of you I'm sure,I do get a little homesick from time to time and it was that fact that led me to search the net for all things British and stumble across this site.
I would like to thank you all for giving me a laugh and making me feel a little closer to home.
