I would say Brown Ale for my home town and was amazed to be served this in our pairings once at Victoria & Alberts 🙈

Currently it would be submarines where We are now.

The oldest stone castle in Britain and a racecourse both of which I can see from my bedroom. Also you can stand on a bridge and have one foot in Wales and one foot in England!

Yes we can hear the track when it's live, which is usually several times a week (albeit not currently) and we get residents passes to lots of events each year (not the GP!) What seems like the entire village walk up to the bridge over the A43 every year to watch the red arrows fly over, it's an amazing place to live, we also get to see all the cars driving through when events are on like classic cars etc.

DS works on the track when he's not at school so gets to be a part of all the big events, lucky thing! Both him and DD were working GP weekend last year and got to watch Lewis Hamilton win.
Yes Sorry, I didn't hit the quote button oops.
*sigh* I'm turning a very unflattering shade of green reading your description of your hometown lol.
Your village sounds like a lovely place to live and your children are lucky to share in the excitement first hand.
We are avid tv formula 1 race watchers

Place of birth : take your pick (London)

Place I’ve lived since 1993: the invention of the radio, one-time home of Britvic mixers etc and awarded city status for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.
