there's a good gang of us from Ireland.

but moving back to the UK in July (after 4.5 yrs in Oz): can't wait!

I've lived in Dubai for the past 10 years.

but I live in the middle of nowhere, a small village in Castilla la Mancha, Spain ( Olè )

Living in Singapore! I lived there for a while when I was younger, and it's a great place. I have only been awake for about 15 minutes and I am already pissed off, looking out of the window at grey clouds. Still, at least I can go to the Sunderland game on Sunday, so there are some plus points.

I'm also in Singapore, living in Choa Chu Kang, working in AMK (and sometimes Science Park). Been here 17 years now.......

If I'm not in one, I'm in the other.

A Dubliner through and through, but living large way down in sunny Melbourne. The only downside as far as I can tell? Just received the Bob Dylan cover Word issue today.

In a city called Växjö. I can´t pronounce it either.

I'm in the South of Italy, where I've lived since leaving uni 25 years ago. It's racist, corrupt, small-minded, backward and culturally dead... but the weather's great!

People saying a hung parliament leads to weakness in government, just look at Belgium. Well, we've had no governement for the best part of a couple of years over here and doing just fine thanks Mr Cameron.

Lived in Tokyo for 17 years now. Has a few downsides (like anywhere) but generally a nice place to live.

I believe there are a few of us here from China

Dublin to be precise...

Toronto..although I must admit to the odd pine for Stockport!

Southwest corner of, deep in the rurals. Less than thirty miles from where "Crazy" Ed Gein lived. That's how we roll around here, yo.

not as far, nor as exotic as some of you ..

France for the last 21 years, though I first lived here in the mid-seventies.

It's like everywhere else, some good, some bad, some infuriating, some baffling.

Am 60 miles south of Paris, out in the sticks, but still within striking distance, should there be a good reason - like a Richard Thompson or an Orchestra Baobab gig.

Was listening to the commentary on the Somerset v Essex cricket match today and there were e-mails from San Francisco, Istanbul, Australia, Spain etc. and it made me feel good that technology had enabled us all to follow our passions & get in touch with like-minded people, much like the Word web-site (even though some members have less than reverence for Richard Thompson or Capt. Beefheart or other old Zigzag faves.)

Am on holiday for the rest of the week, with a big list of stuff to be done in the garden & temperatures due to be 26C for the next couple of days - wonderful.

Goodnight all, wherever you may be.

Detroit, MI - originally from UK but now a US citizen.

..well that's where I live.
(Not in the pig, obviously..the location)

...Stockholm that is; the capital of Sweden.

but I'm moving to Oslo this year.
