Hello everyone~my name is Jan. I found this site just today and am thrilled to see all that is going on here. I live in NJ but have always said my heart lives in England. My dear Mom was English and came to America as a "war bride" after marrying my Dad who was from the states. So unfortunately, I do not have the priveledge of dual citizenship since it was my Mom who was from England. I am currently beginning a search for a small condo/flat near my family in Cambridshire as I want to spend more and more time there as my own children are pretty much on their own.

If anyone knows of a site or any info on the process of purchasing from overseas I would be delighted for the advice.

Thanks~have a lovely day.

Ha, you little devil Stephanie  .

Don't mind us Janice, we just like to beat everyone to be the first to post a welcome. It's become quite the tradition and it's the second time today I've been pipped at the post (so to speak).

This is a GREAT site, the pictures are indescribably wonderful and the forums are a blast.

We look forward to getting to know you and having you join in our banter.

Good luck in your search for a flat, someone here may  very well be able to help you.

Oh my gosh! Thanks for such a warm welcome everyone!! I see everyone is so warm and friendly here and that is just lovely.

John~I have bookmarked that site and will take some time to explore it. I have called my cousins and asked them all to look for any publications they may find and send them to me.

I am planning a trip over in the fall sometime. Not sure when yet, but will be able to look for real then.

A million thank yous for such a warm wlecome :)
