    Re: Where is everyone based?

    I am from what was once called Otergimele, the son of Grimm. where Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte lived in exile 1846-48 and then recreated the center boulevards of Paris based on the main Street in the town.
    so. just north of Liverpool a bit

    Re: Where is everyone based?

    I had no idea Hexus was based in St. Albans! I'm in St. Albans too (highfield park to be precise).

    I used to be fairly active on here, but turned into more of a lurker, but this has brought me out of the shadows

    Yep we used to be based in Elstree (near the studios) but moved to St Albans about 2 years ago - we have an office just off the Hatfield Road.

    I always thought it was Elstree Studios? Near Elstree Aerodrome (who often have a nasty little twonk on the radio who growls at a simple request of a transit well above circuit pattern, when their circuit is empty!).

    It's a great city, but the accent, not so much.
    I am from Liverpool and speak with that accent, I can't say I like it either. Hearing myself on the telephone is almost painful.

    I'm not far from there, currently renovating a house in Ormskirk.

    Yes that's what it's called but the town is called Borehamwood, it's where they film Big Brother and other BBC program's, Eastenders is filmed off 1 of side road's off the high street (village).

    For the radio i don't have a clue as never listen to it really.

    Re: Where is everyone based?

    I'm not casting aspersions Cougho, but I am putting my fingers in my ears. However, I'm hardly speaking with Shakespearean RP.

    My parents currently live in the wilderness of Banks, just north of that there Southport. It's a nice enough town, but I always feel like it only has one or two things to do. What do people do for fun there Stevie Lee? Apart from walk down the pier and peer at the sand?
