HI to all brummies out there, I was born and bred in Brum (Inkerman St Vauxhall) but I have lived in Devon for 23 years, I am now back in Brum having retired. What my question is how long do you have to be in Brum to qualify as a brummie ? . Looking back at my family tree we first came to Brum in 1775 from County Durham. So What makes you a full brummie member?.
