    My list is pretty boring compared to some of you, spent all of my life here in Illinois. Lived in Aurora, Oswego, and Yorkville. All of them not even 20 miles apart.

    Never lived outside of England - or even Yorkshire. Born in Halifax West Yorkshire, moved to Withernsea in East Yorkshire, back to Halifax for a few years, back to Withernsea for a few more and then back to Halifax where I've been for last 32 years. Bit like a yo yo!!! (o:
