Home towns.

Post by danny109 »

Hi guys,
I don't know if this has been done before. Post on here where you were born and if you have any family ties form a certain area. I'm from Leicester and am proud of it. I have strong ties from Newcastle, Hartlepool, Folkestone and Devon (not sure where).

I'm from Coventry (unfortunately). I'd love to say I love it here - but I hate it.

No real family ties elsewhere. All of the family were born in Coventry but they're not all spread out around the country - mainly Devon or spread across the West Midlands/Staffordshire.

I'm originally from Cricklade, Wiltshire (born in Swindon) however both of my parents hail from Coventry. I know that there are recent family links (ie grandparents) to London and Middlesex (Borehamwood, St. Albans area), Scotland, Northamptonshire, and more of the Birmingham area.

I was born in the City of London. Most of my family live in London but I have family ties in Taunton, Hoddesdon (Herts), Canberra (AUS) & Montreal (CAN). I also lived in Birtley Green (nr Guildford), Stafford, Cannock, Great Wyrley (nr Walsall) and now reside in South-East London.

I've certainly been around but found that London is in the heart :lol:
