Good enough for me, I’m adding both countries to the list. > [@vontsira](#): > > Me likewise (though it’s sunny as I type this). If appropriate to this thread – I’m a lifelong UK citizen, of the English variety. Absolutely appropriate. People should free to post whatever they want about where they live now and where they’ve lived in the past. I enjoy hearing about all the interesting places people have lived. I’ll only add the country where you live now to the list, however. ---

> [@Bumbershoot](#): > > Thanks for the link, **Zeldar.** I hope we get that kind of response here- and we’re off to a good start. Thanks everybody. > > Since it has been several years since **Zeldar** ’s thread I think a new one is in order. I’ll do occasional updates but they won’t be as detailed as **Zeldar** and **Antonius Block** provided in that thread! I did a lookup on **Antonius Block** not long ago and it would appear he may still be active. He did all the work in that old thread and might be approachable to redo his thing. In any case, you’re doing a good thing, **Bumbershoot** , and it’s good to know how widespread the SDMB base is. Tally Ho! ---
