Welcome from Maryland! I used to live in NOVA too. Leesburg to be exact.
Welcome. I grew up in Malaysia but followed a woman to Oregon where I remain. If you are ever in DC, you might want to pay Georgetown Tobacco a visit. I'm particularly fond of its Old Georgetown Blend.
Also chuffed to see the word chuffed used after a very long time.
Spent 8 months with the NI Squadron myself. You a squaddie then? With what unit? If you don’t mind me asking.
I like it well enough. Pretty country, especially the Chesapeake Bay area. Would like to visit the west coast someday.
Yes, Free Presbyterian. Afraid it didn’t stick with me. And yes, my Scottish burr does seem to have a positive effect in my interactions with the opposite sex. Now I’ve been to North Carolina and I’ve fallen in love with the pork BBQ there.
I was with 1 KOSB based at XMG a long time ago. Very memorable days and I was always glad to see you chaps?
Happy puffing

Hello there. Very nice to see another Brit on a forum otherwise 'saturated' with yanks. Lol. Although, seeing as you're living over there you'll have a foot in both camps.
Welcome! Another expat here. Living and working in India but from the US. In my last job in Latvia, I knew a guy who was half English, half Chinese and had spent time serving with a Scottish regiment. He was an interesting guy to work with and had high opinions of his Scottish mates who would occasionally drop by for a visit and when hey did, they partied hard. I didn't even try to keep up.
Another welcome from the middle coast of CA!
You can put your location in your Profile—(please!—because people will forget!) That will save questions in the future as to where you live when you later mention local stores, weather, tobacco prices, availability, regulations, location of photos, wildfires, air quality, etc., etc..
Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down. Whatever you're comfortable with- town, city, county, state. Just country if you must.

Yes! Georgetown Tobacco is still in business and IMO well worth the effort to visit. For my part--I LOVE "Night Owl" by Georgetown Tobacco. Still tastes good and I think it hasn't changed much since the late 1970's when I first puffed it! Mmmm good
