This is in response to my blog. I live in the UK so I'll tell you all about where I live.

http://www.rfgeneration.c...ut-where-you-live-996.php

Royal Leamington Spa, UK
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leamington_Spa

  • The very centre of the UK
  • Third Largest Town in the Warwickshire County
  • Visited by then Princess, Queen Victoria twice (1838 and 1858) and Queen Elizabeth II (1980)
  • There are five video game developers in the Town, most famous being Blitz Games. Codemasters isn't actually far from from the town (my dad visited it a while ago).
  • We've held a yearly Peace Festival for over 20 years

We've been home to Sir Frank Whittle (Inventor of the Jet Engine), Nizlopi (Band with Number one hit "JCB Song"), Randolph Turpin (greatest Middleweight Boxer of the 40s and 50s) and others.
