Oh yeah? Well my home town has ...

[Cheesus333]

Bradford reportedly has the best curries in Britain [footnote]Which I would equate to any town in Mexico having the best haggis in the country: it's just not what you go there for.[/footnote], and if you spend five minutes here you'll know why.

There are curry houses everywhere. I was in the car with my brother, and on a single street we counted no less than 23. They were all in a damn row, too.

A zoo. best in the north half of the Netherlands.
Only farmlands and small villages up there ( some cities, but they aren't big or important, or memerable I think.)

 

[Corpse XxX]

Houston has...has...damn, I don't even know. Lemme check.

Damn, I can't even find anything on Wikipedia worth mentioning.

Houston.. you have a problem?

This is something I've heard and have yet to really test out. Leicester curries are fantastic as well; due, equally, to our high Asian population - but then the English Curries are nothing like the real Indian Curries. Ours are realistically spiced gravy - and Dhansak is totally unrecognisable to it's original incarnation.

Maybe I'll have to pop up to Bradford sometime to see. I do know that I had a fantastic curry in Dundee one time. Little place outside the Uni.

*sigh* Columbine. I miss living in a mostly obscure town.

Yeah, Columbine's claim to infamy isn't your best export...

Houston has...has...damn, I don't even know. Lemme check.

I see what you did there.

This is just down the road from me:

as is Richard the Third

As is this:

Yeah, me neither.

 

[MrJKapowey]

Well, apart from Sir Humphrey Davy who no one will ever of heard of I think a staue of a pirate shooting up would represent where I live perfectly.

Wait, didn't he defend Darwin's ideas or have something to do with The Origin of The Species?


OT:
My town was the foremost manufacturer of chairs in England before World War one. Such joy...

If you do, bring a stab-proof vest. I wish I was joking.

It's great in places though, it just happens to be that most of it isn't 'places'... just rotting industrial estates and rundown residential districts.

Yeah...

We have that as well.

Must be a British human thing. Probably a human thing.

But oh well! Bradford also has (in the local area) Salt's Mill, which was apparently world-famous. Also, David Hockney was born here... I think. Might be wrong on that one.

Nope, I checked. He was.

He was a pretty important scientist in the early 1800's, president of the Royal society for a while, discovered various metals, made a lamp that was safe for miners amongst other things:

[Mr Snuffles]

We frequently have the cops from 'cops, camera, action!'

If you're looking more specifically, into the specific of where I live (It's a country village a few miles away from the town), we have several annual festivals, one which includes morris men hauling a massive cart full of hedges through the streets. Nightmare...

Damn, got him mixed up with Thomas Henry Huxley and I have no idea how...

I had heard of Humphry Davy though. I just thought he was Thomas Huxley...

 

[Hookman]

The Beatles! They were all born in my city, Liverpool...I think they already have a statue though.

 

[similar.squirrel]

WB Yeats. I think. That statue may have been taken down, though. Anyway, Yeats Country is where I am living. Shame I don't really like his work.

 

[Hero in a half shell]

Well, in Belfast we built a giant ship and it sank, and we were the subject of a Captain Planet episode. Yeah!

 

[SckizoBoy]

Woodford, so Winston Churchill. Personally, I don't like him, so I will go for his esteemed predecessor John Churchill, nothing to do with Woodford, I just think he's one of the most awesome British soldiers that ever served. *meh*

 

[ROTMASTER]

NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MrAkuma201]

My home town needs a nude Serbian women then more people will visit. Well now I live in Perth Australia so I don't really give a dam.
