I've been here for 12 years now, originally from Bolton, and I'm finally realising that what I am missing is some good old British friends. I'm looking to meet some Brits I can chat with and maybe get a pint with once in a while - My yank friends just don't cut it sometimes. Anyway, I live in Discovery Bay (bloody dead out here) which is about 1 hour east of SF, 1 hour south of SAC, and 1 hour NE of San Jose. Anyone up for a chat or to meet for a beer...?
Thanks,
Lee.

Hi there! welcome to the board! I'm a long way from they bay area but there are a lot of posters down your way and some get together occasionally.

Are this lot near you? I'm not too well up on Californian Geography

Meanwhile, you'll have to make do with us virtual pub companions! :grin:


Thanks for the replys guys. I checked out the San Jose link and it looks like it could be a good one for me.
Hey, I just found a TV show on cable called Trigger Happy. Have you seen it? It cracks me up and reminds me of the good old british humour. My girlfriend, US, supposedly thinks it's funny too but I don't really see her laughing when it's on. I think she's saying it to appease me....heheh
Lee.
yep, seen Trigger Happy (saw it in the UK). There was some talk about it on the main Britnet board click here and here . Come on over and join in the fun!
