Scotland - 2 addresses in Fife, 4 addresses in Moray, Highland
Wales - South Glamorgan
England - Yorkshire, Wiltshire, West Midlands
Germany - 2 addresses in Niederrhein
Hong Kong - Kowloon, New Territories

So, 15 different addresses, I think. Actually less than I thought! Longest stay at an address is 14 years, shortest less than 16 weeks (we moved in after "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" was at No.1 and moved out when it was still there).
