Hi all! Just thought i'd put a thread up to see where everyone is from? chances are we probably drive past most of each other on ways to work, home, about, etc!

I'm from near Chepstow in South Wales

Check out the members world map linky on the menu at the top - and make yourself known!

I'm from an ickle village half way between York and Harrogate.

I see an black S60 pull out of the cattal junction most days with me on my daily commute.

I pass/see loads of Volvo's daily as I go pass Mill Hill Volvo of Knaresborough.
