    I
    I've been to both Weobley Castles, though there's not much to see at the Herefordshire site.

    And I've experienced the glory of Pennard.

    I've visited every castle in Great Britain. :)

    I existed in Thamesmead for 16 years.

    And then I existed in Edmonton, followed by existences in Ponders End, Waltham Cross, Wood Green and Enfield Lock.

    I no longer exist.

    Pennard is on the 7th hole of where I play golf, the finest place on earth.

    The hole is called castle, which is fair enough. Overlooking three cliffs bay, magnificent.

    Never been to Weobley.

    Is that what you/he said? I pay little attention to your alter egos and their castle fetish.

    With Russian ancestry, I was born in the northwest of England during the early 1930s
    I left school at 14 to work at a greengrocery, and then a tobacco factory; I sang popular songs for soldiers while serving with the British Army
    My greatest success came during the 70s, when I packed out clubs and theatres, and regularly appeared on TV; even Madonna attended one of my shows
    My wife died of a heart attack in her 50s; I was a teetotaller and diabetic, and I was a subject of This Is Your Life

    The child of musicians, I was born in the USA during the mid 1920s
    My first professional performances paid just $1 a night; I left home at 15 to join travelling shows, yodelling and playing guitar for one meal a day
    I sold 25 million records, earned a place in the Grammy Hall of Fame, performed for the Queen of England, and had one song sit atop the Billboard chart for eight weeks
    I was a heavy drinker, which seriously affected my mental health in later life; an asteroid was named in my honour, and I had at least ten children

    With Irish ancestry, I was born in Great Britain during the second decade of the 20th century
    I started performing in music halls at the age of six, and by my teens I was known for my popular BBC Radio broadcasts, which usually ended with me playing my trademark instrument
    I won a Tony Award for my work on Broadway, and earned an Emmy nomination for my TV work; I once shared top billing with The Beatles
    I saw out my days in Florida, having spent the later years of my life appearing in variety shows and on panel games

    I do love maps especially ones of the treasure variety. I would however have to question the scale of the maps. In the first one the size of the shovel, bone and volcano don't correlate. The second one, the size of fish, mountains and snake don't make much sense either. Why did I not get a "like" for getting the quiz right today?
