I asked about Hastings UK and Marvi asked:
> Yes. Is there another one?
According to Wikipedia, there are seventeen of them, all in nations that used to be British
colonies - the US, Canada, Australia, Barbados, NZ, etc. Eight are listed in the US alone. I knew
about the one in Ontario and suspected there were more. The English one is the most famous.
Possibly the biggest. And there was that darn battle.
> Hastings was pretty small and I've regretted that I didn't have enough money

I loved in London for a year when I was a graduate student. It was dirty and noisy and crowded
and utterly wonderful.
namaste,
Elizabeth
