I was born in Scotland and lived there till I was 5. My Grandfather on my Dad's side served on the famous british Battlecruiser HMS Hood that was sunk by the Bismark. Luckily he wasn't on it when it got sunk or I wouldn't exist.

I am also a distant relative to William Shakespeare. My Mother's last name, Arden is of the direct line of Shakespeare's Mother, Mary Arden.

Yep. First year I lived there it snowed and settled on the ground 17 times during the winter. Ive since lived in Parts of Scotland and Canada and Guyra still rates up there for coldness.

My great grandfather, was the treasurer for City rail sydney, and the designer for the plans for pymble stationo palm beach station. The only reason it didn't go through wqas because of the great depression and the greed of the people running the rail ways at the time.
