Re: Anyone from the WEST MIDLANDS?????
Nobody from Nuneaton? 
I'm surprised at the amount of hatred Redditch seems to generate, almost took a job there with AT+T and visiting for interviews found it more of a leafy gem after the train ride through Eastern and Central Birmingham.
... lots of chavs on the streets though..

I'm a former Edgbaston girl - but only until I was about a year old! Then my parents moved to Buckinghamshire and I've been there ever since. So not sure I count really?!?

Coventry girl, born and bred.....
Lived on the outskirts in a commuter village (Balsall Common) until I left home at 17 years old. Parents left there last July to move to France. I hopped up and down the country, now in Oswestry, Shropshire. OH moving to Ontario in March, children and I are following in August.... Unless I get a better offer???

Re: Anyone from the WEST MIDLANDS?????
Great to see the Villa boys mentioned. I made my final pilgramige to Villa Park for the 2 - 1 victory over Tottenham New Years Day - too scared to go again just in case my final game isn't a victory. How do i get to catch the footie on TV then? is it through Fox Sports?

It's on Setanta. Virtually every game is shown - some are actually live and some are "delayed live". "Delayed live" means it is shown a few hours later. All the matches are also repeated at least once.

Re: Anyone from the WEST MIDLANDS?????
Hello,
I'm originally from Yardley, Birmingham.
May be moving to Waterloo later this year - have had a tentative job offer from a high-tech company, but nothing official yet.
Just browsing these forums doing some research?
Is anyone else here living in Waterloo? Opinions?

Hi everyone!
Were orginally from the midlands, near Willenhall/Wolverhampton. After a 4 year stint living up in Newcastle (two kids are official geordies!) we finally made the move over to Vancouver!
Good to see so many midlanders all the way over here
