Yes. I recently found myself in a hotel bar just outside Pretoria, with eight 
South Africans, one of whom had never left SA, but the other seven of whom 
had all (at different times) lived in what they affectionately called 
Wimbelfontein.

I told this story at a dinner party a couple of weeks later, and all four 
South African guests had also lived in Wimbledon.
