Vynrigg: I live at Ambleside in the English Lake District, which has poetic connections with Wordsworth. My favourite poem of his is "Imitations of "Immortality".
Origially I am from Skipton in Yorkshire, which is near the Bronte country. Emily Bronte's "Last Lines" is another of my favourite poems. I lived in many places inbetween some more literally famous than others.
    Border Reiver: Cool! I'm Cumbrian, but I've migrated down south. Still, I love to head home. -
    Cumbrianlass: My mother was born in Ambleside. My grandparents owned The Epicure years ago, and my uncle and aunt still live there. Tyson's shoe shop ring any bells?
