'''Saga City''' is a [[wikt:pedant|pedant]] who was born in the City of [[Bath, Somerset]] (not [[Bath, Avon]]) on [[October 9]], [[1947]].
 
{{TOCright}}
His ''nom de wiki'' is '''not''' connected with the Japanese city of the same name.
== Intro ==
'''Saga City''' is a [[pedant]] and [[m:Delusionism|delusionist]] who was born in the [[City of Bath]], [[Somerset]]{{efn|Because his mother was there at the time}} (not [[Bath, Avon]]){{efn|Despite being told that this was so}} on October 9, 1947 and was christened on the first Sunday of 1948 at [[Church of St Andrew, Curry Rivel]]{{efn|Once the vicar had been woken from his post-lunch nap}}. After leaving [[Surbiton County Grammar School|SCGS]] his first place of work, in 1964, was No.1 [[King William Street, London]] where his boss was [[Peter Fleming (writer)|Peter Fleming]] who was not there during the early days of Saga City's employment as he was at the funeral of his better-known younger brother [[Ian Fleming|Ian]].
 
His first contribution to Wikipedia was on 20 November 2004 – about twelve months before he had a broadband connection; looking back he wonders how he put up with the slow access.

==[[George Orwell]]’s six golden rules==
#Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.
#Never use a long word where a short one will do.
#If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
#Never use the passive where you can use the active.
#Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.
#Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.
