I'm from the rather unimaginatively but appropriately named Granite City.

i was at Munich station the other week and struck up a conversation with some girl. asked her where she was from and she said "Hamburg. Hamburg City, Germany". oh, as in Hamburg, then?

i'm from Thurrock, Essex. i'm told that thurrock used to refer to the cesspit in the old sailing ships. not sure if it's true, but would be quite apt.

currently living in Munich, which in german is called München and refered to by proper Bavarians as Minga, which is nice.

We used to say Shepton Mallet as if it were a French name. It's fairly amusing.
