Mine's spot on too, both birth and residence.

Shropshire lad born and bred, strong of arm, weak of head.
Apparently this is also said of Cheshire folk but as the historian in the family has researched, Cheshire born, Cheshire bred, strong in the arm and weak in the head.

"weak" has been corrupted from "wick" from "quick".
Strong in the arm and quick in the head.

Cornwall is accurate for me but I'm here on a very long working holiday and so far so good.
Thanks for that Doug, you learn something new every day!

I much prefer quick to weak, even if it may not be true of me!
If you can't say something nice about Pentax, you won't say anything at all.

Apparently.

I always thought it was Yorkshiremen who were strong in th'arm and weak in t'ead.
My brother always says that of his two Yorkshire born sons.

My location is also accurate .

I have brought this up before a few times and there have been discussions that some people do not want to say where they are from, but It would be nice if they would just say what Country they are from,

Mine is accurate, too. I was born in Montréal, Québec, grew up in Laval (just north of Montréal), spent my summers in the St-Lawrence river estuary, and finally settled for Ste-Anne des Plaines, about 20 miles north of Montréal.

Now, you all know the story of my life (almost!!!).

Just a country's fine Jack.

I know I keep raising this and location is optional but it is nice to know that when we recommend SRS(for example) the person we're trying to help is in the same time zone!

Apart from that, where's all our Canadian, Australian and US friends at the moment?
Cheers, HG
