Question for the U.K. By-toreans

Post by rushlight »

I dunno if you'll have the info but I wanted to try. How does one become a native of the U.K.? (Other than being born there) :-D I'm heading over there in October to be with D.A. for a holiday and we'll be checking into it anyways. 8) I work at a phone company around here and they have a location in Cardiff Wales which is one plan for me, but do any of you have suggestions? Spill your haggis please. :D :-D :-k
I love my Welshman.

I have a friend who may have the info you need, as soon as I get in touch then I'll share what I learn.
Another friend's son is studying at Cardiff. I'm visiting towards the latter half of the year. Would be nice to meet up?

Wales is a seperate country and the delicacy :cry: that is the haggis is distinctly of Scottish origin :-) . Ask Schu'.

Make a completely bogus claim of persecution in your own country. Then you'll be able to live a life of luxury at the British tax payers expense

Thank you very much Oggy. :-) And yes, it would be nice to meet you. I'm leaving on October 13th and staying until November 3. And yes haggis is more of Schu's territory. I should have said spill your steak and kidney pie please. Something more british. :-D

Strictly speaking, Wales is not actually a country anymore - it is a principality of England. I use this fact to annoy any obnoxious Welsh people I come across as it really bugs them. :twisted:

pfft. The Tudors were Welsh. So "your" monarchy is Welsh - and have been since the days when the monarch had some actual Power. England is but a province of Wales.

I havent any dates as yet but to meet up with your goodself and DA would be cool.

Lol, now if you mentioned the 'pastie' I'd be convinced and offer you citizenship asap. Ironically an 'Oggy' is local dialect for the king of meals 'the pastie'. My name derives from a comic fantasy novel not the foodstuff.

Actually, our current royal familly is of German descent as, until WWI they were called Sax-Coburg Goethe and changed their name to Windsor. In addition, the father of the current heir to throne is a bloody Greek. Why do you think I want to get rid of them.

My trip is getting closer! :-D Only a few more weeks to go. Already, I have been buying a few things to wear over there. (No, D.A! I didn't spend over a million dollars shopping! :P ) And sometime around September, I will sign up for vacation time at my job. And hopefully when D.A. and I reunite, we'll have a plan for me to stay permanently. :)
I love my Welshman.
