Hi all, I'm interested to know where the highest concentration of people with SA is? There seem to be very few people from my area which is really frustrating. I understand that a lot of people with SA just haven't discovered sites like this one, but they're still out there. Has anyone found a more...

Good day to all my fellow Brits!!

I am from Leeds but my heart is still in Manchester (where I went to uni- lots of fond memories and happy times...)

Oh - jolly good - my region has the most people here.
I'll be keeping a closer eye on the neighbours from now on. Get my SPW radar on.

So, I spent my very early years in N. Ireland (born there, moved to America when I was about 4) but I only just, in reading this thread, discovered that I've never pictured the rest of the UK as anything other than one giant London.

As in, I've never pictured it as anything else when thinking UK, in my head I always see my home and then a giant ****ing splot that's meant to be london. Everything else was just grassy hills and rain while London was just some gigantic zit of asphalt and bricks about to pop and spill urban all over the countryside.

Hmm

I am surprised at the results. No offence but I thought everyone on the internet was Northern (from experiences on Online games).

Portsmouth, South-East / or right in the middle of the South

So did I...well certainly on SA sites lol

I live in the South East I've hardly ever met any other SAers from this region (excluding London). All the meets and large groups of SA people I know of are from up north or in Scotland.

I said I am from London & I was originally but I now live in Bucks so I suppose that's SE. 🙄
