why the fuck have you all heard of Pontefract ffs? 
Steve Lamacq lives in London I think.

Torquay is either in the south west or somewhere near Newcastle

50/50 - my four grandparents were from Redruth, Saltash, Devonport and Ottery (and they were both Cornwall / Devon pairings). Fucking nightmare when the jam and cream comes out.

Or named after Eastenders characters. Barry, Pat, Wellard, Gita etc.

Big fans of liquorice.
Might complain about Hay-on-Wye actually. Wales my arse, it belongs round here next to Bourton-on-the-Water. Get back here right now.
