Re: Where you grew up, where you live now


I was born in Queens Park, Paddington, London, W10. Moved to Ealing/Greenford area when I was 6 and stayed there until I married, didn't move far, to Harrow. In 1994 moved to Leicestershire as OH's company was moving here. Never lived outside of London area and hated the idea. Although I still consider myself very much a Londoner, I do quite like the peace and quiet and open spaces here now.

Born and brought up in Glasgow, Scotland until aged 11. Since then I have had 12 house moves but none of them further that 50 miles from my original home.

Lot of changes down Ibrox way these days, a lot more to be happening soon as well from what I hear. Sir David Murray (owner of Rangers) has been talking about major redevelopment around the stadium, new hotels, shops etc.
