Any Germans here?

[Ulysees]

My mate is looking to befriend German parents. She's married to an ex soldier and now lives in England. Any help re: expat sites much apprecitated thanks xx

Can't help, but will give a mighty BUMP!

ACHTUNG!!!!!!!!!

Does she want to chat online or meet up? If she wants to meet up you'll have to put her approx. location too. I once asked on here if there were any chat/forums in German and I found quite a few nice ones (but never join in as it's hard going writing in German) also there is a good online forum of Germans in London i think. Would that be what she is looking for?

germans in the UK
This looks quite good for finding Germans in the UK.

Isn't Emkana german? Or am I completely wrong?

Hi, thanks so much for the bumps and information.

She wants support from other german mothers mainly. Her dd gets bullied by kids for being half German plus she just wants to contact mums who are in a similar situation as her.

I'll show her the site you've linked admylin, thank you xx

Oh she is in North east England like me

the kids get bullied at school for being German?!? Oh that's so sad! DD has not had any jibs/bullying so far about it, all her classmate think it's cool . They're only in Reception though so it might change. The teachers though are really good in supporting multi-nationalism (is that a word???) as they encourage any foreign language speakers to bring in some of their own books to introduce them to the other pupils which I think is great.
I'm in Marlow if that's any help

hi MrsD, her dd is almost 10 so that may be why? It probably depends on the school though. She also has 2 younger sons.
If you would contact her then please email me at goldenbrownand @ hotmail.com. and I'll give her your email. Don't want to put hers on here iykwim?

whoops, it's goldenbrownandi @ hotmail.com
sorry

emailed you if you don't get it check your spam folder ;0

thanks MrsD, is it you or dh/dp who's German?

I'm the Kraut and dh is a Kiwi

Wow what a lovely mix! She's German he's english (ex army)

dh used to be in NZ airforce

i've emailed you. You'll like her, she's a sweetie

just had to verify that my email as my email looks like it's been delivered

she just texted me and said her internet isn't working for some reason? She'll email as soon as possible. Seeing her at Church tonight though. take care

MrsBigD, we have the same constellation in our family.
I'm a Kraut, he is Kiwi.

I know loads of German-Kiwi couples, seems to be quite a popular combination.

Hi, I am German married to an English guy, we live at the London/Essex boarders. My sons are too young to get bullied at school but they grow up bilingual and hell if one little bugger dares making stupid comments I'm gonna come after them! My FIL (he is 70) once was concerned about me enjoying "the walk" in Fawlty Towers and he got a right seeing-to as well. He was banned from getting any of my German Xmas biscuits that year - he deeply regretted his comment after that!
