More recently Stafford was the birthplace of ''[[Men Behaving Badly]]'' star [[Neil Morrissey]] and where [[stand-up comedian]] [[Dave Gorman]] was brought up. Author [[Storm Constantine]] is a long-time resident. [[Ozzy Osbourne]] lived nearby. ==Economy== A major activity in the town since [[1903]] has been heavy [[electrical engineering]], particularly producing [[power station]] [[transformer]]s, exported around the world. The works have been successively owned by [[Siemens AG\|Siemens]], [[English Electric]], [[The General Electric Company plc\|GEC]], GEC Alsthom, [[Alstom]] and most recently [[Areva]]. Every so often a delivery takes to the road. Each transformer weighs several hundred [[ton]]s and so a sort of [[road train]] is used. The weight is spread by a 160-wheel cradle, pulled by an 8-wheel drive [[FAUN]] ''[[Goliath]]'' tractor unit and pushed by two more. -->▼ == ~~Nēah~~Nēa Stedas == * [[Cannock Chase]] * [[Shugborough Heall]] ▲--> == Ūtanwearde Hlencas == Line 23 ⟶ 26: * http://www.transportcafe.co.uk/britain22.html - Photos of the road train == ~~Source~~Glēsing == * (11th century and earlier) Staffordshire Newsletter [[1994]] Guide * [[Etymological list of counties of the United Kingdom]]
