Who's from Leeds?

Postby tomcat360 » Fri Feb 16, 2007 12:55 pm

So I had to do a little family tracing thingy for history, and turns out the furthest back we can trace it is 1587 or something in Leeds.

I thought I remember someone from Leeds. What's it like? Big place, little place? Got waves there?

Thanks for the offer, but I kinda doubt that I could find someone from 500 years back that would willingly take me in their house in a big city. :lol:
