[LockerbiteReiver]

Hello Everyone

I just thought I'd start this thread in this informal section of this lovely little forum because similar threads have gone down well in other forums I've posted in.

Basically it's very simple.  Where were you born, where have you lived, and where are you now?

I shall lead by example!

Born in Lockerbie, Dumfries & Galloway
Lived In Stockport, Greater Manchester
Lived In Leicester, Leicestershire (University)
Lived in Venice, Veneto, Italy (Bizarre couple of months where I thought I was a poet)
Moved back To Lockerbie
Moved to Glasgow
Rescued from Glasgow by my girlfriend, now live with her outside Falkirk.

How about you lot?
