Where in the world are you?

Apart from the obvious that there are contributors to ABCTales living in the UK and USA (plus I spotted 2 in the Netherlands by their proxy ending .nl) I was curious as to what other nationalities are contributing to this site?
So to kick off.. I'm a Brit living in the US.

Huh!! and I thought this thread was simply asking where ABCtalers originate from and where they are. But what do I know? I only started the thread! Many sincere thanks to those who responded... Gleaning through the replies, the answers seem to be: Britain, Belgium, Netherlands, Australia, Canada and the USA. Any more to add to the list?

Yeah, not all of us are from such obvious places! We are from South Africa!! Amazing isn't it? how many people are from so many different places! Of course, we're probably the only people from Sunny SA huh???

In a wee village south of Bath, not far from Jennifer (Wicked Wiltshire) and David (N.Somerset). Having said that, I'm spending most of my weeks in Livingston (near Edinburgh) just now which, to be blunt, is a bit like Milton Keynes with an accent....and less soul. Yum.

Whereabouts do you live, David? I spent seven years in the USA. Two in L.A. and five on the road. I've recently returned from visiting friends in New York and Chicago and my wife's brother's family in Montana.

Fragrant my dear, you never noticed because you are just like your spouse, INSENSITIVE. You probably wouldn't notice if the entire British Lions team had been there! Or were you eating your chips at the time? Mary sweet lady, I have never read any of your old man's tripe, I based my remarks on the opinions of a high percentage of the millions of 'pleasured readers' that you seem to be so proud of. Your judgement isn't any better than his is it my dear?

Just think, Andrea. If you had omitted that last comma, that sentence might have been quite surreal.

Blimey, yes! Just goes to show that punctation can come in handy, sometimes. The image it conjured up of HRH in a headlock with a carp just doesn't bear thinking about... Er...is 'headlock' a correct wrestling term? Good ol' Eric, eh?

I live on Spentcoon Island, off the coast of Tasmania. I drink wine while I write. My favourite White is 'Bondi Bleach' and my favourite Red is 'Kanga Rouge.' I hear their flip-flops flapping with low sounds by the shore... Can you guess what it is yet???

I live in the salubrious harbourside suburb of Mosman, Sydney, Oz, where there are no ghosts because they can't afford the rent. Hmm. And re "ern mali" on Spentcoon Island, I was wondering where Ern Malley had got to.....

Don't bother Jeffrey, the last dozen or so have been shite. It's just as well they got you for perjury because if it had been crimes against literature you'd have got life. By the way since you've been locked up me and my mates have been round yours screwing the wife. A little bit of poetic justice that, don't you think?

my husband is very pleased that, despite the fact you think he is shite, you have still read his last dozen or so novels. myself, if I read a novel that I consider to be shite, I never read that author again. I suspect that all you archerbashers here in the phorum can't distinguish between the man - and all that he stands for - and the writing, shiteghosted though it may be, that has sold in it's millions and given pleasure (ho ho) to as many readers. by knocking the books and not the man, you alienate his readers......and writers without readers......are shite! I'd rather go down, if you pardon the pun, as a writer who sold a million crap stories to Sun readers and died wealthy than the attic bound poet that once sold a brilliant sestina compilation to ermmm..... I forget where now a.....nd died poor. but then I'm just shallow.
