Spurred on by a friend's posting (who may disagree with that assessment) I wanted to remember the place and order of places I've lived. It's quite a list.

Ashford, Middx (Born). Moved when 2.

Calverley, Leeds. Moved when 7. Parents split up.

Idle, Bradford. Moved aged 10ish

Garforth, Leeds. Moved aged 12ish

Micklefield, Leeds. Moved aged 16

Bethnal Green, London. Moved aged 16. Sharing with parent.

Walthamstow, London (6 weeks). Sharing with sibling.

Gants Hill, London. 6 months. Sharing with sibling.

West Norwood, London. 1 year. Sharing with sibling.

Totteridge & Whetstone, London. 1 year. Sharing with 3 blokes.

Southall, London. 1 year. Sharing with 2 blokes.

Norbury, London. 1 year. Sharing with parent.

Hounslow, London. 9 months ish. Sharing with parent and 1 bloke.

Minamisunamachi, Tokyo. 1 year. On my own for the first time.

East Dulwich, London. 7 years. Or something. Still here. Shared with partner and a few other transients.

12 places since I left home 18 years ago. Holy removals. I've only lived alone in Tokyo and East Dulwich (ignoring some periods my partner may have spent elsewhere).
