The only problem I can see is if a new member was to sign up, and didn't know where Stevenage is, they wouldn't know which section to look in for local meets.

I'm ok though cos I'm a Letchworth boy :D

Anyway, if it was to change, it should be Milton Keynes and surrounding areas :thumbs:

I know what you mean. Home counties though is Herts, Beds and Bucks. I'm now 40 miles away from Stevenage. When people here at work ask where I'm from, and I say near Stevenage. They look at me blankly :confused:

I think milton keynes and sorrounding areas would be best, it took me ages to find this section, home countries is not really very precise!

If it needs to be changed, then Herts, Beds & Bucks would be more suitable.

Why is Cambridgeshire in the Home Counties? It's in East Anglia:wack: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Anglia

Have highlighted what half your problem is, you all seem to be looking for countries instead of counties :wack:
