When you say that you value the sense of community here ,it seem to equate to the fact that you are saying `in the UK community, people matter` .
If it is so different to what there is in the USA, that's quite an indictment.
Is it that the necessity to drive everywhere keeps people apart, do you think? On public transport and out walking one is right next to strangers and it seems to work well ,here and in Europe.
I think there’s just an overall sense of individualism in the US-every man for themselves
@@TheHicksonDiaries Ah, I see, the good ole frontier spirit still lives!
It's going the American direction in England
Americans are trapped by their cars, from home to work and back, from home to supermarket and back. Meeting no one.
These are things that we Brits take for granted. It is nice to remind us how lucky we are. Glad you are enjoying them.
Yes we are. Thank you!
Also unlike in the US the weather is not extreme, so no severe hurricanes ,tornadoes earthquakes
Yes. 💯. I mentioned that in a different video.
Especially Yorkshire puds.
😋
Glad you like our country, we need more people like you 👊 respect.
Thank you!☺️
Thank you for your comments ,it takes somebody from overseas what we take for granted .Enjoy your time here .😊
Thank you! 😃
This is so lovely for an English person to listen to. The good features of our culture being explained to us in this way are really enlightening. Thank you.
My pleasure and privilege to have the opportunity to experience them
We certainly have our faults but compared to some countries, it’s pretty good 🙂 welcome, I hope we treat you well ❤
Thank you! So far, so good
There is nothing better than to be sat on a clean and quiet train, watching the beautiful countryside going by. We moan about the price of our journey now and then, but I think it's worth it.
I agree. I love it
If you think the cost of our train services are worth it, then you are being taken for a ride. It`s a poor service at a very high price, unless you live in certain huge urban areas.
I’m not sure about the cost yet, not enough experience. But I’m happy to have the access right now
It has got ridiculously expensive but I do agree, nothing beats a train ride through the beautiful countryside
It’s cheaper than having a car tho
Interesting to hear of the differences between USA and UK. Glad you like it here.
I love it! Thx. 😊
It's so lovely that you're enjoying living here. Honestly, it really is so great to be able to just go walking somewhere or hop on a bus. I love this myself because I don't drive. Life is about being happy and enjoying whatever time we all have ❤ hope you have a wonderful life here too ⚘️🌷🪻
It really is! Thx so much for your support and encouragement
The most unexpected item in your list was the skies, the cloudscapes, but as a meteorologist I can understand that. What surprised me was that you didn’t mention health, not being terrified of getting sick and unable to afford healthcare.
I healthcare is one of the reasons we left (different video-why I left)
@@TheHicksonDiariesI hadn’t seen anything else from you, but I have now subscribed
OMG-thank you. Appreciate your support!
@@TheHicksonDiaries Got a feeling you are in for a huge shock in the next year or two!!
@@garyfryer5334 Why do you say that?
Just a side note.
In the UK, we don't " bring" something to the " register". We TAKE something to the TILL.
She has yet to learn about the pedantic nature of us brits.
Not anymore. 600 shoplifting incidents per hour in the UK...
@enemde I was quite American with that one, huh?
Is that stat for real?
@@TheHicksonDiariesYes. Source: Daily Mail online. Figure is for 2023...
Brit here,I lived in NJ for 2 years but could not get used to it so went back home
I grew up in NJ-whereabouts did you live?
So pleased that you now feel comfortable about living in Britain. Hope you have a wonderful springtime getting out and about. Has your daughter found it easy to assimilate?
Yes, she’s doing well, fitting right in! thx for asking.
When I was a child Yorkshire pudding was always served with gravy as a starter to a roast beef dinner on a Sunday.
Peter Darley, Holmfirth, Yorkshire, England.
A starter? Interesting…
@@TheHicksonDiaries For economic reasons Yorkshire Pudding used to be served before the main meal. Because they are very filling, the thought process was that you wouldn't need so much (expensive) meat to eat if you ate a Yorkshire Pudding first. This was the norm back in the 50s; not long after the austerity of World War II and with many food items still hard to find on the shelves or very expensive. Yet another good example of how mother's ensured their children didn't go hungry despite little money coming in - how times have changed!
That makes sense
When I was a kid I used to have Yorkshire pudding with sugar and vinegar on after dinner, try it ???!!
Thank you for your appreciation of our country. In my opinion, the sense of community helped us through the pandemic better than most other countries 🇬🇧
❤️❤️❤️
This is a good video. I sometimes forget the things you list about the UK just because its always been like that here. Thank you for reminding me not to take it for granted 🙂
You are so welcome!
Glad that you enjoy the uk 🇬🇧, you need to get about a lot more to catch up with all you really need and want to see and enjoy, good luck on your time here and welcome 👌👌
Thank you. Can’t wait to see more!
I was lucky enough to go to the USA in 81' on a school trip in new England. All the towns were named after English towns. And drinking coffee as a 13 yr old in the states made me feel old
Many of them were named after places in East Anglia, where I live. Friends of mine who visited New England said it felt strange seeing familiar place names in an unfamiliar place.
Yes. Anymore many town names are repeated throughout the various states as well
You are so right about so many things, especially not taking ourselves too seriously. If you want to see beautiful skies go to the East Coast, especially Norfolk and Suffolk. Loads of artists live there because the light is so good.
When I was a child, in the early 1950s, we'd have Yorkshire pudding twice in one meal. The first time, crispy with gravy, vegetables, and a scrap of meat (wartime rationing didn't end until 1954) as the main course, and the second time, less crispy (spread with a bit of jam and kept warm in the oven) and served with hot custard, as the pudding course.
I’m gonna try it, sounds delicious
@@TheHicksonDiaries It's certainly filling! I also remember having it with no custard, just a drizzle of golden syrup. It was a way to cheaply and easily 'fill up' growing, energetic children in difficult times. Are you aware of that wonderful dish made with a YP batter, toad in the hole?
sounds great. I love YP. Maybe I should move to Yorkshire
@@grantbartley483 You don't have to go to Yorkshire for really good YP, don't worry - although it is said that it's always best when made by a yorkshire cook!
@sine-gl9ly I have and thoroughly enjoy it 😋
I’ve just discovered your blog. It popped up on my feed. I work in property here in London and the Southeast. I’ve noticed recently, a lot of Americans have moved to London and other areas and buying property. Brighton is another popular place. It’s also close to the continent, an hour away to Paris and other places in Europe etc .
America is getting harder to live in by the minute, I’m not surprised
We have a sales tax (VAT), but it is always included in the price.
Yes. That’s what I prefer.
Hi,
Glad you like it here.
Just need to correct you on 'no sales tax', we have a sale tax (VAT) but as you said its in the advertised price, I think this is true across most of Europe, it makes things so much easier.
Yes it is.
I’ve got a 9th century Anglo Saxon church less than an hour away, it’s very plain & square but so spiritually calming inside. St Peter’s in Barton on Humber
You forgot to mention John Harrison the inventor of the timepiece that calculated Longitude
@@johnbell-yn5xe did he help build Anglo Saxon churches too?.
Nope, why would a genius , who spent years of his life , overcoming the considerable challenges of creating the Worlds first marine chronometer , do a job a brickie could do
I prefer the calming spiritual energy I find in the 1,200yr old Anglo Saxon church, no chronometer of any kind can do that. The place has a calming energy in its ancient roof & walls & I’ve always been very atheistic in my beliefs, but this place effected me in a way I can’t put into words, it just is.
I understand, but the Kingdom of God is WITHIN YOU
Learn to meditate, no I'm not advocating Mindfulness , thats ok if you are a monk up a mountain , and then enjoy the silence and solitude whenever or wherever you choose
Happy your happy. We/ i forget those good things sometimes. Thanks for the reminder.
It’s my pleasure. ❤️
Good on you, love. Nice to know that you like being in blighty 👍
Yes. I’m enjoying it
Having lived here all my life (56 years) - but visited USA 8 timed on holiday - I agree that History is the thing that sets us apart from most countries - even small villages have something there going back 300 years.
It’s such an amazing privilege to have this stuff at your doorstep
Wonderful video, i always enjoy the perspective of someone from another country. Glad you like it hear and i love your Channel 😊
Thank you so much. LMK if there’s anything specific you’d like me to talk about!
Thank you young lady,with so much negativity being bounded about,it's nice to hear positives
Thank for your kinds words! Much appreciated
I've literally just had 4 Yorkshire puddings with my Sunday roast 😜🤘👍
Love it….🥰
Looking at some of the comments posted here, it would appear that there is a small number of us Brits that are arrogant and lack patience. May I apologise on their behalf. I don't know how long you're staying with us - whether it's for a finite period of time, or whether it's for good - but I hope you see loads and do loads and enjoy every minute of your time with us.
TY. I appreciate that. I hope to stay for a while!
Since I have started watching your earlier videos, I'm pleased to see the change in your mood in this video. You seem so much more settled now. I hope that this continues for you and your family. ❤
History is everywhere where I live, in Oxford. For example, literally at the bottom of my road is the race track where Roger Bannister ran the four minute mile. Come to Oxford, you'd love it.
It’s on my list
@@TheHicksonDiaries Make sure you come when it's not raining. Also every year, In September, I think, they have open doors for a week-end, where they open up a lot of otherwise closed facilities to the public. It gets quite busy, but is otherwise a good time to come.
I’ll remember that. Thx
@@TheHicksonDiariesgo to the Cotswolds it’s nicer than Oxford. I work in both. 👍
Welcome to the UK. Glad to have you here.
Thank you! ☺️
Hi. I recently found you on here so catching up a bit it’s so interesting listening to people from abroad coming here. Telling us their experiences . Xx
Thanks so much! 😊
Fun fact: nobody knows how Yorkshire puddings are actually made. Legend has it that at night while you sleep, Yorkshire pudding fairys sneak into your kitchen on Saturday nights and present them on plates ready for sunday lunch. Strange but my wife always seems to disappear when theyre being delivered.
I love it-perhaps the fairies can leave them as a nice treat when they’re done cleaning my bathroom?
The fact that the US dont put the actual price on stuff is just ridiculous, so far behind
It’s bc the sales tax is controlled at the state level. But it makes things more annoying
As with so many things in The USA it’s opaque so you can be fleeced more.
Lovely to hear how you are enjoying living here, I think we taken things for granted how lucky we are even if things seems grim at times! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.
It’s my privilege. Thank you for your lovely comment
Re: Yorkshire Puddings being a “Substance”😂😂🥹😋🥰
I couldn’t think of another word
Gonna have to binge watch your channel now lol. Glad you are happy here.
Thank you. I appreciate your support
Working full time minimum paid leave entitlement (by law) in the UK is the 8 days national holidays (bank holidays) plus 20 days. It's usual that you're still paid in full when on sick leave ( before I retired when sick I would have been paid in full the first 6 months and half pay the next 6 months. Also had 38 days leave).
It’s amazing that you get pay for being sick. There’s a concept
Same here, initially, I had four weeks paid holiday plus eight Public Holiday days. After five years I got five weeks annual holiday and then after ten years six weeks plus Public Holidays. Sick pay was six months on full pay then six months on fifty per cent.
In America I was lucky to get 2 weeks (10 days) vacation. I know someone who had to work an entire year before getting any paid time off
Same here. In The USA people are seen as expendable. It’s very uncivilised.
Yorkshire's pudding can't beat it love your videos
Take on the UK as a English person my grandfather was a American so always had a interest in America and American culture
Thank you. Appreciate it!
I am a UK/US dual national. I am always interested in what others see / appreciate / hate. Skies, though? It has been grey in the UK since November. And the rain, oh my goodness. Things will get better soon. I like your take on things. After healthcare, fresh food quality - vegetables, bread, cheese might be next on. my list. Long summer days are up there too, though. You make a good point about communities. I wonder what brought you here? I lived 20 years near Philly. You may be from somewhere near? Good luck. Edit: I just watched your "Why we moved to England" clip. I totally get it and agree - guns and healthcare. Unfortnately for us, while our daughter is here, our son stayed with his partner in PA.
Some of the best skies are with clouds, IMO. What county near Philly did you live (if you don''t mind me asking)
That church looked like the one I sang in the choir yonks ago.
😛
Love watching videos like yours, it’s refreshing to get other peoples views on where you live.
Thank you. I appreciate your support!
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm glad YT suggested your channel to me. I have just spent a happy hour or so following your highs and lows. I have enjoyed your gradually more optimistic adventure in England. I hope it continues, that your determination is rewarded by your finding more and more to enjoy, that your daughter's experiences enable her to grow in the way you hoped for when you made the Atlantic leap , and that your (obviously supportive) husband can handle your increasing fame 🤣.
Good luck with the driving. A good instructor is a boon.
Go girl!
Thank you so much for your kind words and support! Hope I get to talk to you again soon!
Interesting views. Wish you well in England 👍
Thanks 👍
I moved to the UK over a decade ago and I love the pace of life here! When I first moved I was in awe of London (as most people are) but moving around the Country has been a real eye-opener. The people, culture and lifestyle is "lovely"! (Also I love Castles and they are everywhere here.)
Can I ask if the awe has fallen off at all the longer you’ve been here and the more you’ve gotten used to it?
Pleased you like our country, enjoy your time here, you’re very welcome.
Thank you!🤩
Yorkshire puddings are amazing with gold syrup 👍🇬🇧
Syrup-gotta try that
Nice to hear you're getting to like our lovely country.
I love it!
Yorkshire pudding is made from a batter of flour, eggs and milk or water or a combination of the two and seasoning. Beaten enthusiastically together to the consistency of double cream and poured into a smoking hot tin containing oil or (preferably) beef dripping.28 Nov 2021
Thanks. I haven’t made any from scratch on my own yet
Public transport is what it's called.
Ok. Thx
Well, perhaps not thousands of years unless you include Stonehenge and other ancient stone circles. There's dozens of them in The British Isles.
Thx for the comment
Well, as a lad from South Hampshire, we lived very close to Porchester castle, which dates from the 4th Century AD. So not quite "thousands" plural, but "almost" 2000 years old. Our nearby Saxon church was over 1000 years old, too.
Half of my family comes from near Maiden Castle in Dorset, which is definitely over 2000 years old, and the other half from near Avebury, which is several thousands of years old.
I get your point about the buildings, though. Unintentional hyperbole.
☺️
I love you babe,I am now giving you a big hug ,your comments are ,well sweet really!!
Aww. Thx. That’s so sweet! Xxxxx
Easier way to describe Yorkshire pudding is that is a batter mix similar to pancakes. Unlike bread there is no yeast and sugar 😊
Thanks for the tip!
Aren't popovers the same thing but smaller?
IDK-
@@rosemarielee7775 No :)
Thx for clarifying
Britain is Great
edit: there could be some improvements made.
Everything can be improved upon but it’s doing ok
Individuality has its drawbacks.
Community is very important.
I like the hybrid version you have…you get on with it but there’s a community foundation to help you get there.
We do have sales tax, it's just added onto the advertised retail price by law.
Yes. I prefer that
Just a few years ago I was attempting to catch a train from Valencia to Alicante in Spain. It was a Sunday as I arrived at the ticket office and I was told that the train about to leave was full.
At first I didn`t understand how a train could be `full` on the grounds that here in the UK they pack the passengers in like sardines in a sealed tin. The office explained that there were no more seats available...... it was then that I got the picture !
If you board a train in Spain you are allocated a seat, just as one would be allocated a seat upon boarding an aircraft. Return rail ticket was about 15 Euros for a journey of about 156 miles. `Left each station bang on time and arrived at our destination bang on time.
Of course we who created the Industrial Revolution couldn`t possibly do that today. I reckon this must be on the grounds that there are some people in the way in this country - called Preferential Shareholders.
Welcome to Britain sweetheart ❤😊
Thx you! 🙏
Oh yes, I love Yorkshire pudding! But I like it just plain, nothing on it. My English partner thinks I'm nuts, but there's nothing like it in the States. When I was a kid, we had something called popovers which I suspect may have been based on Yorkshire puddings.
And I totally agree about the sense of community, it's really great.
I agree. Yorkshire is a one of a kind. Are u American
Lovely to hear what others think of England, we hear so much negativity aimed at our country that you forget what a great country we live in. YES we have problems, and a rubbish government, but I still love England and am proud of it 🏴❤
It’s a great place!
My wife is American so we can live in the USA or GB. We live in GB . . . No contest
Ditto! ❤️
I love our skies.
After my own heart
If there were any yorkies left we used to have them with jam for tea.
Oooh. Yorkshire and jam….gotta try it
Try Yorkshire pudding with ice cream or jam, or both, lush...
OMG. I am definitely going to try that
Thank you for that.
My pleasure!
Please use wide screen from now on, found this fascinating. More like this please❤❤❤
I will do my best!
Im glad you like the UK even if it's just England
Where are you?
We have the working time regulations here, which is complicated, but protects employee's max you can work in a day is 13 hours, there must be 11 hours off between shifts, the most hours you can work in a week is 60 hours, but, not every week, we have the wroking time regulation, that you can work 60 hours this week, but over 3.5 or 4 week period, it has to average 48 hours, so if you do 2 60 hour weeks, your cut to have to cut the hours for following 2 weeks, to bring the average to 48 hours over that period, there are little ways around it, not for now lol, you also cant do more than 6 days in a row, ovr a period of time, you have to have a day off, so really only allowed to work 6 days, thats the short version
There’s no national mandate for time off n the US
Of course there is the nice little Working time Directive opt out form that lots of us have handed to us when we have our contracts so the rules dont apply.
Several industries also have working time directive exemptions which mean your 48hr working week can be the average over a rolling 17 week reference period, the gap between shifts can be cut to 8hrs etc.
Yorkshire pudding is made from batter. Pretty much identical to pancakes - just cooked differently. Edit: Turner painted a lot of skies, in the fog too - madlad Brit. Edit: We do have sales tax - shed loads of it - 20% on most luxury items, but 0 on food and kids clothes etc). It's just an all inclusive price on the shelves.
The inclusivity is what I was commenting on.
The original idea behind Yorkshire Puddings was to help fill you up because the roast beef was very expensive and so only a small portion
Makes total sense
welcome to the UK
Thank you
So glad you've settled.
Why take things seriously when you can have a laugh?
Yes. Agreed. Always thought the Brits were more uptight but it turns out to be exactly the opposite!
The minute you take yourself seriously, your in trouble, you'll be mocked, scoffed and buns thrown at you
I’ll keep that in mind
@TheHicksonDiaries your welcome, we Brits are known for not talking our selves to seriously, underneath the reserved nature are layers of sarcasm, irony, double entendre, and understatement... you'll be fine.
@@davidhoward5392you are shortened to you're not 'your 'which denotes possession eg your luggage😂
Food comes from the food bank (charity) for many working or not working poor there...
U mean the US?
Lovely ❤❤
Thanks!
It’s funny because most brits are very quick to run down the UK but as I’ve said many times before you have to leave the country before you realise how lucky we are actually are. one thing you forgot to say is that we are very good at slagging off, another bit of slang for you, and putting down our own country for personal or political reasons not realising how good it is over here
Very true…but it’s hard to imagine life outside of what you’re used to sometimes!
In Britain we have the trades description act ,which is if you advertise it that’s it without any add ons ,that’s roughly it I’m no lawyer ,it’s to stop you being ripped off.Nice comments .😊😊
We have something like that in the US butit’s not really enforced
You should visit Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire ❤
I’ve added it to my list. Thx for the tip
Outside cities in the UK there's little or no public transport.
Even in some towns, life is difficult without a car.
Public transport can be expensive too. We're I live,for two people, it roughly the same price to get a taxi 3 miles to the nearest town as to walk 3/4 of mile and catch the bus
We’re not in London but close. The transport here is pretty good. But I’ve only been here a year
@TheHicksonDiaries people who live in the southeast of England don't realise how dreadful public transport is in other areas of the UK. I live in a very built up area, our one bus per day was scrapped 25 years ago we now have to walk Three-quarters of a mile to catch a bus
Ugh. Yeah. That would bother me too. That sounds like America tho. Unless ur in the city-no public transit available at all
im a brit living in the US for 40 years I miss the free healthcare. I broke my wrist. it would have cost 1000s to fix. I dealt with the pain for months. I now have a deformed wrist
This makes me so sad for you. I’m sorry for your misfortune. It is a common occurrence in the United States I’m afraid. Thank you for sharing your story
Welcome
Xxx
The sales tax always used to catch me out when travelling to the USA
It’s a nightmare.
Very glad you’re enjoying being here. Having done the reverse (lived in the US for 4 years) I fully understand the points you make, particularly the last one.
With your surname it’s likely that you have British ancestry, which means any history over 250 years old (ie most of it), is as much yours as ours.
It’s my partner’s name, they’re English. Where in the US did you live?
Sales tax…is already added in, but it is 20%!!! (It's called VAT)… And you may not be benefiting from this as an American national, but we have a free health service. So visits to a doctor, hospital visits, surgery, childbirth, chemo…is all free.
Yes. My point was that it’s not added on as you’re checking out. And it’s a national thing rather than varying from state to state. I’m happy to pay to get benefits for it!
The sales taxes in the various states we travelled through (me and the wife like motorcycle touring in the US) were bloody confusing, in the end, I stopped really looking at the price other than to know it was the marked cost and a dollar or two. The other thing was chatting with the locals when our accents and the bikes drew their attention always was the really poor pay in the service industry and how much they relied on tips. In the UK you'd have the employer in court for some of the stunts they told us about, like finding someone to replace you if you were sick... Mad I thought that what managers were supposed to do? That said I do love how bonkers the US is. Couldn't live there but it's a smashing place to visit for a motorbike holiday.
It’s great to visit, and if you have money. But that’s pretty much it. Service industry workers are increasingly more exploited-unfortunately! But I worked a corporate job and I had to find my own cover when I was out also.
@@TheHicksonDiaries Thats mad didn't they have a HR department?
Yep. But it was in the handbook so if u agree to unemployment that’s it
Bummer! @@TheHicksonDiaries
Yea. It’s a tough situation
I don't make Yorkshire puddings because I'd eat too much and just looking at the recipe really unhealthy, yet, somehow , frozen Yorkshires seem OK when looking at ingredients.
That’s weird. Hmmm
What’s up? Sky! Always thought our skies were the same as everybody else’s, though I’ve heard of American ‘big’ skies? Whereabouts are you living?🙂
Kent. I’m from NE of the US so most skies are filled with Light pollution buildings in the way of the view. Further west do have better skies, I believe
Yorkshire pudding made from batter, similar to pancakes.
Definitely tastes different
Welcome.
☺️
I thought Americans have pop overs almost the same as Yorkshire puds. Ours are very yummy with gravy on a Sunday roast!
I think they might but I’ve never had them-or if I did they were nothing like Yorkshire
A yorkshire pudding is technically a kind of popover
That’s a good way to describe it to people, TYSM!
anything i have with gravy comes with a yorkie
and "chippy curry" is like NOTHING else on the planet
Is that the curry sauce?
@@TheHicksonDiaries yep in the UK we can Buy "masun" paste that makes chippy curry
Nice.
Yorkshire puddings are made of batter.
Yes, I’m learning. Thx for the info though!
Public Transport: yes, it exists in the UK. Compared to Japan however, the UK has no public transport.
The US wouldn’t either. 😜
I'm British and would way prefer 3% or 7% sales tax added at the till, rather than 20% sales tax (vat) already having been included on the price tag.
As an American once told me, if any state in America tried to charge 20%, there would be riots!
My village pub is 800 years old 😄🍺🍺🍺
What???? Which pub is that (if you don’t mind me asking)?
Yorkshire pudding is a batter (eggs and flour), it's not a bread.
Got it thx
Take a weekend break in Ireland, you will love our vibes
OMg. I’d love to visit Ireland
