What part of the UK are you from.
I've a theory that less people migrate from certain parts of the country than others. So I'd like to check that out. I could well be wrong, but lets just say I've hardly met anyone from my part of the UK since I've been here. I've been here a full generation now. I realise people move around a lot, but I'd like to hear from where people thought their main financial/family base was.

Re: What part of the UK are you from.
Personally speaking most of the people I've met, seem to come from Lancashire or Yorkshire and a lot from Scotland. I've hardly met anyone from the South East though, so thusfar I'm really surprised with the 33 pct. Unless they are voting from the UK, which seems reflected by the lack of posts on the board. Except for Sarah Lou, Portsmouth is borderline SE/SW I've got to admit.
