Hey there,

New here on the board. :D

I'm in the midlands as well!
Anyone heard of Loughborough?
It's about 10 miles north of Leicester.

Hi there!

I'll be moving to the Midlands in the Summer - just outside of Stafford.

Did you like Loughborough?
It's such a little town!
My uni was in Coventry, but I've moved to Lboro now.
Never been to Stafford either. Is it nice? :D

Stafford is a bit dull, imx. I did manage to get pulled over there once for running a red light. Which I didn't actually run, I think they were just bored, so I had an argument with them and they let me off. :lol:

Staffs. doesn't get interesting until you get down to around Lichfield and Cannock.

So its been a while but is there anyone still left in the Midlands? I've been here 8 years now and not sure why I didn't think of looking for a site like this before, it would be great to meet someone who understands my Tim Horton's needs and says EH. :wink:

Not quite Midlands, but Lincolnshire. Curious to meet any Canadians around here, they are few and far between since I left London. Nottingham, Leicester and Loughborough are all within an easy train journey for me if anyone else is up for some kind of social event?
