Quote (ImAFoolAndImLaughing @ Aug. 30 2006, 19:40) | I live in Chesterfield, a pokey little town in Derbyshire, UK - famous for having a bent church and for being the place where George Stevenson - the man who invented the mobile kettle - is buried.
Oh - and I think Bernie Clifton (you know - that rubbish "entertainer" from the 80s who used to prance about on a pretend ostrich) lives somewhere nearby. That's as exciting as it gets I'm afraid...
Here's a pic |
Funny you should mention about George Stevenson, but I used to live in the same town, where George Stevenson used to live in Newcastle-upon-tyne UK. He used to live in Killingworth Villiage in a cottage. People used to visit it, but then they closed it for good. They still have his picture and the image of the Stevenson Rocket (steam engine) outside the cottage.
