I was born in Manchester, England.
I'm born in Liverpool, I'm a Liverpool supporter.
London, thou art the flower of cities all!

Note for Americans and other aliens: Milton Keynes is a new city approximately halfway between London and Birmingham. It was built to be modern, efficient, healthy, and, all in all, a pleasant place to live. Many Britons find this amusing.
I'm from Southampton.
