Member Roll Call -- Countries of origin and residence

One of a hundred billion, but that's an under-estimate because it does not include "Dwarf" galaxies, and it's only what the Hubble can see.

 

Born i Ørsta in the western part of Norway. Have trotted around where the marching boots have taken me, and a spell at Aberdeen Uni. Now Im back to square one.

 

American by birth, 110% Texan by the Grace of God. Raised in Europe (Germany, Spain, Italy) now in Ohio as the Texas Ambassador. You'd be amazed at how many of us are up here.

 

Finland ( I suppose that´s enough precise ). Oh yeah, we have a huge neighbour country, perhaps you heard about it somewhere; Russia.

 

Born in Holland, grew up in Holland, Belgium, France , the USA , maried a French girl and got stranded amidst the smelly cheese.

 

Born and raised in Dallas, Texas. Now living just south of Raleigh, NC.

 

...view of the 'White Cliffs ...' from the road that runs past the bottom of my garden.

.. on the left on top of the cliffs is the Battle of Britain Memorial at Capel-le-Ferne . We are regularly over-flown by passing Spitfires, Hurricanes, Lancasters, P-51s ( I kid you not...)..Memorial day this year is 6 July

Can I interest you in a wee bit of a landswap?

 

The Preston-Chorley-Leyland area.
Well, just Leyland actually.
Thats in lancashire, England for those who don't know.

[USELESSINFO]The place of invention of the Double Decker bus, near the location of the first railway & British motorway, and near the city with the biggest bus station in Europe.[/USELESSINFO]

BTW, what do "code" tags do?

How can someone be born on a place called Diametrersta? Were you off on a tangent?

 

Born and raised in Kingsville, Tx. Moved to Harlingen, Tx (where the home of the Confederate Airforce, used to be) moved back to K'ville, then to Beeville for a spell, then to Corpus Christi (which means: "Body of Christ") and soon to be movin' on to H-town, Tx-which is now the ex-home of Astroworld.

In other words, American by birth, but Southern by the grace of God. ;-D

Now you try and find it on the map

 

Easy, just follow Santa on his way to the North Pole.

Za should be somewhat more complicated :

You go, down, down, down, turn at cape "Cod" take the trolley to Fado land, slip over some olives and end up near the Porto vineyards. If you cross some commie religious with Bob Marley dread locks, then you are pretty close.

 

ROFLMAO to both of you!

 

Born in a small college town in Oregon, spent my childhood on a farm in southern Oregon, school in southern California, then traveled the Pacific a bit....Thailand, Singapore, the Philippines, Australia. Met and married a Chinese girl from Borneo, then back to southern California for a couple of decades. Now back in the Great Pacific North Wet.

 

Born, raised, and still living in Stockport, England.

 

Born in Boston MA, USA. Still live here, but I still have a long life to live being only 16.

 

Wow, I used to live in Enfield and travel through Cockfosters every day to school. It is indeed a wild place, though there was a fantastic deli/grocers on the broadway last time I was there.

The Greek Deli is still there and doing very well
(By the way, as you can see by this recent pic, I walk most mornings in nearby Trent Park)

Cheers
