How many of us still live close to our place of birth? I sure don't. Enlarge the map below and follow that scratchy white line from Illionois to Maryland to Georgia, where I live now. Long story. And there have been some detours along the way.

I've lived in London where I was born then Maidstone, Odiham, Torquay, St. Albans with my family. Then Erith, Crayford, Sidcup, Luton, Bedford, Batley, Dewsbury, and now Leeds.

Let's try :-



That's Brynmawr (South Wales) to Rawtenstall (Lancashire) to Leicester to Manchester to Leicestershire to Hertfordshire to Leicestershire to London - anyone see a pattern developing here?

Born in Chester which is Cheshire, lived all my single life in a little Village in North Wales 8-12 miles from Chester, now I live in a different village but its still 8-10 miles from Chester:D Oppps did live in Spain for nearly 2 years too:D

About 2700 miles from my birthplace, and cannot wait to go home one day, when I retire.

Just as soon as I can retire I'll be back there :-6

Born in NSW Australia.

I am about a 7 hour drive from where I was born.

Not to far away.

I have been back a few times to visit,but this is home for me:-6

Born Nuneaton Warwickshire..Staffordshire, Cornwall, Devon...Back to Staffordshire/Warwickshire border...

Okay, Clodhopper, but where was this gooseberry bush located?


:wah:

Ok, I'll do my best!

I was adopted from London, somewhere, though I have an impression that it was within the sound of Bow Bells, which might make me a Cockney. But my birth name had lots of "Mc" and Northern English names which suggests Borders/Scottish. I was raised from a baby by parents born in London and Eire in the County of Rutland, which was absorbed into Leicestershire and after a vicious terrorist campaign (involving signposts) regained its independence. I spent a lot of my childhood and youth in Devon and my Higher Education in Fife and have walked over large parts of Cymru. By complete accident I now live in the Royal Borough of Kingston-upon-Thames.

If you can work out anything from that, please let me know! :yh_rotfl

I'm English.

She doesn't live in Hollywood. Anyway, Hollywood is undergoing serious gentrification at the moment, so it'll be nice again when she retires and moves back. :p

I thought you said this was easy, Along-for-the-ride? The first part is easy... I currently live 4363 miles (7021 kilometres) from the city where I was born. The second part... where else have I lived? ...now that'll take awhile! :wah:

Oy! We didn't want you snooty buggers - 'twas just the government foisted you upon our long suffering heads. We were trying desperately to put the Rutland signs back up as quickly as the council were taking them down.

I was born at home in Southampton, Hampshire, UK at 1am.

I grew up in Southampton but lived and worked in New York and San Francisco for a while, lived in London for 10 years and now living back dahn Sarf (down South!) again. :wah:

I put it in brackets just in case you didn't understand the Hampshire Hog accent! :wah:

It sounds like you have moved around a bit!

Oh, so it was you, was it?

The signs always amused me, but it did make sense to join Leics and Rutland from administrative and financial points of view. I was surprised by the strength of feeling against it - and it wasn't just the posh folk, either!

I have a bit. Though I forgot to slip another stop at St. Albans between Sidcup and Luton. My time in Bedford is the longest I've stayed anywhere. I'm looking at two more moves to come yet at least. Possibly three.:rolleyes:

I've got to say though that I'm glad to be in West Yorkshire. It's a truly beautiful part of the country.
