What's the distance between where your mum's and your dad's from?

[ThatGoldEagle]

10 miles

A few feet. Apparently they lived next door to each other. Adjoining houses.

Birmingham and Glasgow they met in Manchester when they were both living there my dad having come back to UK because of Mau Mau uprising in Kenya and my mom working there

35km.

5 mile5

Same town about 1 mile apart. Quite a big age gap though so would have been at school etc at different times and didn't cross paths.

8 miles.

About 150 miles

160 miles

298 miles by land and then a sea journey.

they then meet in a third place which was 400 miles approx away from both.

Singapore and London.

3 streets away, five minutes walk if that. All their lives.

And yet they never met, apparently, until they were 18 on the same bus and my dad saw my mum stab her boyfriend with the needle she was using to sew up a hole in woolly tights.

Not a red flag from her there at all.

Half a mile to my mum and dads, about a quarter of a mile to my in-laws, half a mile to my sisters and 2 miles to my sister in laws. Wouldn't have it any different.

221 miles

Ignore me! Gin has made me read it wrong!!! Doh! Anyway, about a mile!

Not far

birkenhead and Liverpool

less than 2 miles for dh and i

About 900 miles.

60 miles, dad used to cycle there on a weekend to visit.

Couple of miles at most, they met as teens.
My grandmothers both went to the same secondary school, but not at the same time.

Nearly 300 miles

About 4 miles. Both north London.

560 miles, within the UK.

Brecon Beacons/ Lake District

2 miles. If that. My dad was at school with my mums sister but they only met at a local dance.

Both grew up in London. Probably a couple of miles.

I've just worked it out for the first time, 4600 miles! In stark contrast to my in laws who were about 30ft
