I live in South Shields, which is a small seaside town in the North East of England, near Newcastle.
The first unsinkable, self-righting lifeboat, designed by William Wouldhave, was launched from Shields in 1790. Also, in 1977 the town was visited by boxer Mohammed Ali whose wedding was blessed in the local mosque at Laygate, which is opposite the Dolly Peel pub, where I run my buskers night! :-)
