hehe - I know! I'm always a bit torn about saying too much though... after all, everything that we post remains in the public domain... and should anyone be bored enough to piece everything together, I dare say they'd have a very good idea about my/our life.

Born in Guildford, moved to New York (city), did a stint in Fulham, back to New York (Westchester county suburbs), back to UK for schooling, back to USA for university the same year the folks returned to the UK (rural Somerset), then Edinburgh, then London, then Washington, and now Dubai.

Where the hell am I from?

Even though I have no real friends there, "home" is where my parents live in Somerset. I have a stronger cultural affinity to that part of the world than any place else.

hey, I met someone a few weeks back, and when she asked my username, she actually knew which building I lived in! I've never mentioned it specifically, but she deduced it through odds and ends I'd mentioned and a mutual friend.

That is a bit "fatal attraction"! I think that would have spooked me.

I once had a famous run in with a wench on EW. I listed everything I knew about her, it totally freaked her out to see HER life on paper :thumbup:
