Barryman Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Living in Reno, Nevada, USA, been a Wednesdayite since watching Owls beat Spurs in 1960, my Dad's mate was pals with Bill Nicholson manager of Spurs (they were all from Scarborough and went to school together) so we got to go to the game, I had to support Wednesday just to make it interesting! The Owls won 2-1 and ended Spurs unbeaten run. We were 2nd in the league at the time.. The quality of my weekends have revolved around the Wednesday result ever since.. Very rarely get to see them live anymore but have the wins against Leeds, Barnsley and Reading saved on my DVR to revisit after a loss like they on Saturday!!

Mickjj Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Do you think you could make it permanent? Not sure Dave, that's what we are trying to find out. Hopefully being there for months instead of a couple of weeks should give us an idea if we could repatriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weshallovercome Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) Any Aussie owls out there near Port Douglas? My daughter and her fiance fly out tomorrow and need jobs. Edited March 10, 2014 by Weshallovercome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-Sole14 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Any Aussie owls out there near Port Douglas? My daughter and her fiance fly out tomorrow and need jobs. They will be fine, plenty of places to pick fruit/bend bananas up in that part of Queensland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I could go back, despite the frickin cold and snow here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyfoote Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 It's good to have that option. Not sure I could go back, despite the frickin cold and snow here Not sure if I could go back either. If I did it would have to be somewhere remote like Cornwall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kind of one of the things we are looking into. We have a place in Oxspring but we both like the "Escape to the Country" idea and will be looking around.

Utah Owl Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 That's kind of one of the things we are looking into. We have a place in Oxspring but we both like the "Escape to the Country" idea and will be looking around. If we ever moved back it would be the same, somewhere in the country about 10-15 miles from the nearest town or city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Owl Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Ahhh. Like me then. You can't be that bad. You follow Wednesday. Tempted to go work for Google Fiber because their vans are blue and white striped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go through Reno a couple of times each year on the way to San Jose. Always stop of at the Nugget Casino for the buffet. Strangely enough I was born just down the road from your dad in Bridlington. Think we need to get a Western US Owls group going! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malek Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) Å ibenik, Hrvatska. Playing 5-a-side in my Wednesday kit (shirt, shorts, socks), and wearing Wednesday pennant on my keys. Mostly everyone I know knows I'm a Wednesday fan, and it must be main reason why people here are more familiar with Wednesday then United. After few drinks I tend to bother people with Sheridan, and how awesome he was. I showed THAT Luton goal to almost 100 people by now. Btw. Heard about two other guys over here (city of under 40k people) who are Wednesday fans Edited March 18, 2014 by malek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Cobian Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Costa Del Sol Owl here, based in Duquesa and Sabinillas. There's quite a few Wednesday fans round here and in Gibraltar, where a number of Yorkshire folk moved over with the likes of William Hill, Bet Fred and other betting companies. wawaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
