Where in the world are you from?

[TheTomG]

So voted where I was, which is the US (East Texas), but where I am from is the NE of Scotland. There is a slight temperature difference in the climate, more noticeable this year which has been insanely hot, getting up to 115F on occasion and being consistently over 100F for many many weeks.

I have just about grown used to metallic objects in my car burning me when I return to it after a day at work though I still forget on occasion (but get reminded very quickly.)

[P.G.Bell]

I'm from the UK but, more specifically, Cardiff - centre of the Whoniverse!

[Abernovo]

I live in Bulgaria, South Eastern Europe. Born in England, spent most of my life in Scotland.

[bedlamite]

Wales: in the sticks, Outlying districts north of Swansea.

[odangutan]

A surprising amount of Scots in the last few post and, although I'm not a native, I'm going to have to add myself to the list.

Edinburgh, Scotland.

[General Tyran]

I am from Lewiston, Idaho, USA. A small town that thinks it's a big city. Surrounded on two sides by National Forest and the other two by grass and cows.

Though the place does get famous people. Hemingway had a ranch close by, and I had classes with the kid who's family now owns it. I eat at the same restaurant as Harrison Ford (though never at the same time no matter how often I eat there, so I have never met him(very good food though)).

[David Evil Overlord]

Australia, the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, capital city of the south-eastern state of Victoria.

*waves*
it seemed apt to use this as my first post on the Boards...

I'm from 'smalltown England', to quote New Model Army.
aka Stoke, which is in the middle of nowhere on the way to everywhere!

[Warren_Paul]

I'm from that little country right in the corner of the map, way down there past Australia.


Palmerston North, which I am sure is one of the most boring towns in New Zealand. No wonder I write!

[Bowler1]

I had to pick the United Kingdom, which for an Irishman stung a bit - fume.

Current in London (Ealing, West London), so ok, UK. Born Dublin, and in the UK for 15yrs or so now.

I think I'm the only regular from Northern Ireland. I'm from about 15 miles from Belfast, at the start of the Antrim coast road, in a very, very, boring town. Even by Irish standards (although, technically, I'm not Irish, it just saves a lot of very boring discussions).


@Bowler, how could you? Hide your head in a pint of the black stuff and repeat: once Irish always Irish. Then drink it.

[Bowler1]

I know, I know Springs, but the options on the poll were limited.

I like your proscribed punishment, as its friday afternoon and I'm the only boss in today, I'm off to do just that minutes from now! Why else be the boss!!

I have been very bad Springs - can I repeat the punishment a numbers of times?

[springs]

work away, Bowler, have fun. But, when you get arrested for disorderly comments, blaming it on me will get you nowhere.

It was only a matter of time, I always end up on a list because of Irish blokes getting drunk and getting me into trouble. I grant you it's normally one of the brothers, but still. Hrmpph.
