    Born in Southern Rhodesia before the family moved to Upper Volta. The old man got a job in Burma before being transferred to Zaire. Short stints in Burma (again) and Swaziland.

    Melbourne, All Blacks.

    @ACT-Crusader fair play had to look up Upper Volta.

    as you relish pedantry it's actually Okiato that was, briefly, the capital.

    Okiato being Wellington to Russell's Auckland.

    I won a tie break in a quiz in Sydney by knowing the capital of Burkina Faso is Ouagadougou.

    One of the few countries anywhere I wouldn't want to visit. Most are in West Africa

    Ok.

    Had a book in the deep dark distant past that describes Russell, then known as Kororareka as "The Hellhole of the Pacific", which has stuck with me for 40+ years.

    Happy to be advised of my error..

    Born in Welly and spent my first 20 odd years there, then moved to Auckland and lived there for over a decade. Now back north of Wellington up the coast to be closer to family. Also spent a lot of time as a kid (months at a time) in England as that's where my Mum and all her family lives. Support All Blacks as my first team, England as my second. Locally I am a Canes man through and through but support the Blues as my second team as my oldest boy is a Blues man after growing up there.

    was there a bonus point on offer for spelling it?
