From Martin Fowler’s home page:

I was born in Walsall, England and lived in London for a decade before coming to New England in 1994. I enjoy living in the US even though I miss the beer, the deep pointlessness of Cricket, and the English countryside.

I like that – deep pointlessness – I’ve only been in the UK for 2 years and I definitely miss the ballet that is Australian Rules Football and the ability to get yourself to places where you can feel completely alone.
