Born and educated (ha!) in Stratford on Avon, a suburb of Birmingham. Left Stratford after 20 years in 1983 and after travelling for a bit, came to study in Oxford in 1985. Married the landlord and stayed. Subsequently divorced the landlord, and now live in a village 5 miles west of Oxford.
So far haven't found any where I like more. When I do I'll move there.
