Born, bred and still living in Prestatyn, North Wales.

Beautiful area, I have the beach just a stones throw away, but if I look over my shoulder there are mountains.

Does it get any better?

No.

The whole of Wales is definitely God's Country.

We now live in a rural area (population density roughly 1 person/sq.km) about 100 km from Darwin,  Australia.

Came here via Japan (where I was born), Brisbane, Canberra (several times), Darwin and Humpty Doo.   

Don't know where's next - hopefully somewhere with broadband access.  ;)

And now I'm off to check my profile. ;D

I am Canadian.  Can you see my flag? ha ha  I am also 11th generation North American in several branches, and my newest immigrant was my grandfather an Englishman.  Would you believe his ancestors have proven to be the hardest to find? Darn shires, hundreds, parishes, civil registration districts....it baffles me.

Hi, I'm originally from Bolton, Lancashire, but came to Australia in '74.  Live in Jimboomba which is south of Brisbane west of the Gold Coast, Queensland.   It's a 'half horse' place and if you blink, you miss it.  But it's great.
