dunno about SJ but when I check the “users online” logs here there are a lot of Northern UK users on the boards (as many if not more than southerners) – maybe they just lurk rather than post..
in case anyones wondering how I know where people are from in some cases their ISP names their webcache after the region in which they are in; in others they use work or uni accounts which give clues…
it seems easier to put on parties in the north than south at the moment though (here our cops are really clamping down) – this wasn’t always the case IIRC though…
