It is absolutely inescapable. <br /><br />Amy, I agree that the women are less "uptight"...once you get to know them, which is a different story in itself! (Although that said, I've met a lot of great women - problem is they all live in different places around London, and it is such a pain to do so much travelling!)<br /><br />P.S. Go USA hockey!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07392247180847914974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777989946968963256.post-40717134238363014292010-02-21T00:22:41.299-08:002010-02-21T00:22:41.299-08:00I love the bread here!

I'm not sure what's in the water around here, but the ladies in my village all seem to be pretty raucus and exhuberant in all they do. We hang out cackling in the school yard, hold our PTA meetings in pubs, drive others from restaurants when we go out in groups, and break out dancing and singing Wii games when we stay in. <br /><br />Compared to the women here, I feel like all my old American friends are pretty uptight and reserved, if you can believe it! I hope you are finding your tribe there!Amy Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15137265140715548518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777989946968963256.post-35814391190709492932010-02-20T16:58:06.520-08:002010-02-20T16:58:06.520-08:00Funny -- I tried to post this before, but I'd ...Funny -- I tried to post this before, but I'd really like to say I truly enjoy your blog and love this current post.
