Born, raised, live (currently)?!

St Barts (Central London, apparently I'm a cockney?!), Finsbury Park, Nottingham.

The fact is we change, not always the person we're born, I've been and moved around often.

GO....

Tacopowell your not a cockney unless you were born within the sound of the Bow bells.

I think you will find that St Barts is within hearing distance of Bow Bells unlike a lot of what is called the east end.
