    No they're posh brummies along with the Silhillians, or as Jasper Carrot described "Two cars in the drive and nothing in the fridge."

    Hall Green?


    Or alternatively I could say Aston, Erdington and Ladywood (if the posh bit was sarcasm)

    No, that's just where the Dudley Brummies live, not to mention being north of Birmingham, which mid-Warwickshire isn't:D.

    Haha...ok, but he grew up near Birmingham? Whatever hamlet he grew up in for a time, that is where Mr Ejmaztec was born. I can feel it. The One Ring doesn't lie.

    Ejmaztec, Chelmsley Wood?

    Back here again. Is that still the suicide capital of the midlands, where people would rather top themselves than live there? No, that's not mid-Warwickshire either.:D

    Dudley was a joke (but you knew that anyway) ;)

    I decided to drop the "Royal" as I don't think Queen Victoria will be visiting again, anytime soon.:pac:


    You won't get me as I'm in the Eagle's Lair in Kerry, named after the birds that are being poisoned by those sheep-shagging farmers in the Killarney area.:(

    I was going to say "And don't call me shirley" but it sounds like the tail has been pinned on the donkey.

    Walking down the road to tesco, I noticed 3 chickens in the front garden of a (what looked like) council house. I live in a city, is it me or is this odd?

    maybe they fell for those google adds!

    there are only 6 things you need to make a chicken coop

    If you'd ever met me, you'd know I was the donkey...



    So now we've got your place of birth, do we get to guess your mom's maiden name?
