Haven't lost it despite being away X amount of years - 80% somewhere near York, which is absolutely spot on.

60% for me, alright, but not pleased with being placed near Doncaster. :)
Bogdan - it could have been worse and assigned you to Chișinău.........

I like this one. :thumbup:

78% - not bad for someone who has to live in Derby.

15 years in Liverpool, 20 years in Leeds, 7 years in Lincolnshire, 36 years in Berkshire. I would work out the percentages but am just going to have a nap.
I once played against Don Revie.

RamseyWhite, in 1938, when I was 2, I spent the whole summer in Ramsey. My Dad was a pianist and did a summer season with a band. Don't remember much about it. :D Actually, I do have a vague memory of motor bikes and the noise which would have been the TT.
