How Far Do You Live From Where You Were Born?
« on: 11 July 2009, 12:02:33 »

I was just thinking.

My Mum was born in Aberdeen, also gave birth to my sister there.  Mums Sister gave birth to her 2, 1 in Sinagpore (Army Wife) and 1 in Aberdeen.

My Dad moved down from Consett and married my Mum and set up home in Rotherham.  Both my Brother and Myself were born a Listerdale nursing home in Wickersley.

My Brother (youngest of us all) has allways lived in Wickersley, so has my Sister.  My Brother has Moved twice, My Sister 3 times.  Dont think Either will ever move again.

I then realised I have moved 8 times, but maybe not more than 6 miles from where I was born.  I wont be moving again. . . .Hopefully. ::)

Have lived further afield but am currently less than a mile from where I was born ( when I am here I want to be elsewhere ... when I am elsewhere I want to be here ) ::)

Is that a Services trait, d'you reckon?  Liikewise, while in the RAF dad moved around Lord knows how many times -- then retired to the house he's still in now, over three decades later.
