think Jen wins at the 'how far away from your birthplace do you live' top trumps stat.

I don't know, if there's anyone originally from Australia or New Zealand they might double it!

Ronnie_Pickering · #6 15th December 2022, 12:38

18,000 miles to New Zealand. That's more than the circumference of the Uk.

I currently live about 800 metres from the hospital I was born in although the majority of my life has been about 12 miles away.

BFG_ · #8 15th December 2022, 13:14

About half a mile from the hospital I was born in I seem to have moved closer as I've got older. Growing up I lived about 15 miles away from it.

About a mile from where I was born. Though I've spent years living hundreds or thousands of miles away from here.

Appear · #10 15th December 2022, 14:45

120 miles.

Mr. Nobody · #11 15th December 2022, 15:21

I don't really know, I haven't measured it lately,

I'm guessing it's around about 2 feet, or perhaps 30 miles, depends how you look at it.

biscuits · #12 15th December 2022, 17:55

Not far at all! 25 minutes in the car.

humphrey · #13 15th December 2022, 18:53

I'm 7 miles away as the crow flies.

Amara 94 · #14 15th December 2022, 18:58

About 1.6 miles

Sunrise · #15 15th December 2022, 19:06

132.9 miles according to Google. That distance spans 2 different countries so do I gain extra points for that?

Ronnie_Pickering · #16 15th December 2022, 19:16

no

Indigo_ · #17 15th December 2022, 20:34

About 250 miles.

That's quite some distance to run. Can I offer you some chickpea water to quench your thirst?

Ronnie_Pickering · #24 16th December 2022, 21:51

there was some picnic mini sausages just now in Lidl, checked the ingredients 58% CHICKPEAS. NOPE, someone else can have that.

T · #25 16th December 2022, 21:55

Where i was born sadly no longer exist.... still live in the surrounding area!

cymruambyth26 · #26 16th December 2022, 23:41

So according to Google Maps I live about 5 miles away from the place where I was born.

That makes sense I was born in Cardiff and I travel into Cardiff fairly often.

Where did it go?

Percy · #28 17th December 2022, 17:55

Giving birth to T was so traumatic it ran away

Percy · #29 17th December 2022, 20:29

Where on earth were you born neverwas?

humphrey · #30 18th December 2022, 12:10

If I had half a million, I could live in the hospital where I was born and spent the 1st 3 months of my life, it has been turned into mega luxury apartments.
