Colorado Red Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 I was born in the front room of a house in Church Rd, Kingswood. Lived in that place until the mid 80's. Then moved all the way to the house next door. Lived there until May of last year, when I moved over to Colorado to get married to a woman I met online. If I have my way, we'll end up living in Australia. I've been fascinated by that country ever since I was a kid. I'd love to move there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
