Sometimes I feel like a single Browncoat in a sea of Alliance folk around here. (Don't get your boxers in a twist! Juuuuust kiddin'.)

Seriously... are there any European fans out there?
I feel downright lonely with everyone talking about American shindigs and all... *sniff*

I'll assume by "European" you don't just mean continental and say there are a reasonable number of British Browncoats that hang around here including yours truly

Hmmm... Last time I checked Britain was very much apart of Europe. Don't think I've ever heard anyone speak of Europe and not take it as read that the UK, Ireland... or the channel islands for that matter are a part of it. (O_o) Sorry, just giving you a hard time. Greetings from the mainland. Sweden to be more exact.

Loki: (One of my fave mytholiogical creatures btw) Hoe gaat het mit jou? (Sorry if my spelling is off. I can't spell in any language, never mind Dutch.)

Happens here all the time

(For the record I am a die-hard Pro-European who actually has an EU Flag hanging next to his Union Jack on one wall. Some here dream of being America's 51st state. I say make the USA the 26th state of the European Union )

European Browncoats unite!

There was a thread awhile back that was titled something like "Where are you from". Look for it in the archives. A lot folk respond to it and there were loads of Brits, Germans, Dutch,and Scandinavians. I've never seen anyone post that they were from Spain or from France. The French thing I've been kinda curiuos about since the DVDs come with a French language selection. Someone named Voss was on the board very recently and he was in Italy. Shiney!

This is actually my first post, (having signed on yesterday), although I've been lurking for a while. Another UK one (near-ish Oxford), and relatively pro-European (as said, a lot of people here might not agree, but I like the idea of the US as the 26th European state )

Hotpoint: You have GOT to be kidding. You were being ironic, right? Otherwise there's a whole other universe existing in Britain that I know nothing about. No offence to our friends, the yanks, but to rather be apart of THAT union than the European Union is just such a totally mind bogglingly stupid idea. I can feel brain cells committing hara-kiri in despair even thinking about it now.

Greetings AJ! Welcome to the forum.

Loki: Phew! It’s been a while since I used my Dutch. Glad I got through it ok.

oooo, don't call 'em 'yanks' they hate that.

However, you can call Canadians 'Canucks'.

Although, I'll never refer to anyone as 'Euro'! I mean yikes!
