Barnehurst (which sounds like a maximum security prison...!!), but this place doesn't actually exist on the map - it got swallowed up some time ago by nearby Bexleyheath...

More confusion - officially Bexleyheath is in Kent, but not according to ye politicians who, after a bit of goalpost-moving in 1974, decided it was actually a district of London (eh?)...

So, somewhere in no-man's-land on the London/Kent border - Clear as mud, everyone...?!!

My road atlas only lists Bexleyheath and gives it as Greater London.  Though the map of Greater London doesn't go out that far, it stops at Woolwich.

And if you've ever been to Woolwich, you'll know why it stopped - the mapmakers probably got eaten by the locals...!!

I'm racking my memory like mad, karen...but I'm not sure if I've ever passed through Leicestershire in my life (!) - I think Norfolk was my nearest shot (which is nowhere near it, but is somewhere 'that way'...!!)

Going back to the concrete slab that is Milton Keynes, there's also a fair population of life-size plastic cows (yes, you read that right...!) dotted around the town...the reasoning of which remains a mystery - even to my mate, who's lived there quite a while...

I live in Cheshire, England, U.K.

It's a nice area, fairly green and pleasant, but I yearn for the wide open spaces. In my fantasy I'd like to live near the sea where I can also see snow capped mountains, somewhere like Vancouver perhaps. More realistically I'd like to move to Shropshire, which is just south of Cheshire but much less densely populated and rural. However, the combination of work, school and family logistics make it unlikely that we'll move any time soon.

It is-and we try to keep it that way. In order to build, you have to go through so many hoops. Right now there is a fight going on for a wind farm-the arguement is that it will obsure the views and hurt birds who fly into them. Me, personally, would like to see a wind farm go in-it is much better than Vermont Yankee (our state's nuke plant where the fish around it has three eyes and the cows have two tails-ok, I'm exaggerating just a bit  ;))

The joke is when you say you are from Vermont, people ask "What state is that in?"

Thanks Paul.  The spot is in between my eye and nose so I have to see a plastic surgeon.  It has only come up in the last month so it should be okay.  I just hope the pathology comes back with no nasty news.  Ah the joys of English skin in a tropical climate!!

Oooh hope its all OK J - stay out of the sun.  I had three removed off my neck when I was 18 and have several that are currently being "watched" carefully.  I avoid the sun totally.  Hard to do when you live in the sunniest place on the planet.

Hope everything goes well for you. I had one removed from the side of my nose a few years ago.  Everytime I go to the Dr. for anything now, if I see a suspicious looking spot, I have him check it.  I get paranoid about every little spot I see now.

Thanks BMG.  I do try to avoid the sun but with the family and all their sporting commitments etc. it's not so easy.  I've now developed a sensitivity to a lot of the sun block creams which makes it even more difficult :P

A friend of mine found it was only the waterproof ones she was sensitive to.  My daughter was also sensitive to a particular brand we used.  When I swapped her to one of these "apply once, lasts all day" brands she was fine with it.

Same here, I have to work in Houston but I live outside of Houston in a little country town. Even though it's an hour drive to and/or fro it's well worth it when I get home. :) When I was growing up all I wanted was to get out of Nacogdoches (the town I grew up in) and since I've grown up (sorta grown up ::)) I just wanna go back to the farm!
