So, beginning of a new month (sorry I am a couple days late) and another installment of 'Where are you from?'
Without further ado, I give you ...
Ramsey, Isle of Man
The Isle of Man lies in the Irish Sea, between England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, less than 60 miles west of the Lancashire coastline. It is 33 miles long, 13 miles wide and covers an area of 227 square miles. More than 40% of the Island is uninhabited.
Ramsey is a town in the north of the Isle of Man. It is the third largest town on the island. Its population is 7309 according to the 2006 census (7,322 2001 census). It has one of the biggest harbors on the island, and has a prominent derelict pier. It was formerly one of the main points of communication with Scotland.
I have to say it looks beautiful. The climate sounds perfect, cool summers and mild winters. I always wanted to live somewhere that was always spring or fall. Considering there were places that were always summer and others that were always winter, how hard could it be, right? This place sounds like it would be almost perfect for me. So if you are one of the 7309 people living in Ramsey, give us a wave, eh?

Any place where the population is 7039 people, sounds heavenly right about now...as I struggle to get home from Downtown Vancouver in 2 hour rush hour traffic.
Sigh.
