What % of Dopers are Brits?

Maybe it’s the time of day that I happen to browse the boards, but there seems to be a reasonably high percentage of British or ex-British dopers here?
Is it just me?
Why so many?
How many are there?
Enough for a London Dope-fest?

Line up for a roll-call!

There’ve been a few gatherings in London already. I’m sure you could get people interested in another one if you like.

And its probably because of the time of day - don’t forget those damn ex-colonials are 5-6hrs behind us - so they don’t really hit the boards until much later.

Its why the boards really slow down if you try and log on about 8-9 o’clockish GMT.

There’s none for late night surfing… darn 'merkin bandiwidth hawgs!
Guess I should look a page or two back and see the posts of the night before ere I be befuddled by the beaucoup british brainiacs!

Lessee, a short list would include Francesca, SteveWright, and RickQ. Alas, RickQ was snatched up by an American bird so he lives in the U.S. now.

Well I’m 100% British, but being an ex-pat I won’t be up for a London dopefest for a while.
garius if your not on a diet, eat a cake at Cafe Valeries for me :wink: You can’t get decent french patisserie food over here even in San Francisco.
Cheers, Bippy

I’m a brit, but I’m an expat too

I’m a Brit, and also an ex-pat.

Maybe we should form a support group, chaps.

Cricket on the village green? Warm beer? Pork pies? sniff

There is one - its called “Gibraltar”.

And i know Valerie’s well - i don’t diet but i do go to the gym every night which (mentally) allows me to justify it :slight_smile:

You can also add Lobsang and Everton to the list.

I’d probably be prepared to do the London DopeFest thing - as long as we could agree on a decent pub :slight_smile:

Brit, but temporarily Stateside…

And casdave, and London_Calling, and SirDoris, and Gartog, and kferr (kind of!), and AlexB, and ianzin, and Fierra, and Tansu, and I’m sure I’ve missed some people out and to them I humbly apologise.

I’m in the Uk, but I wouldn’t go to London if the streets were paved with gold.

Well, no, they’d be really slippery then.

Another Brit ex-pat here, so unfortunately I won’t be much in evidence at a London DopeFest.
But make sure you raise a glass of Theakston’s Old Peculiar and think of us.

But what if they were paved with velcro?

There’s Kabbes too, of course, and Kal (and Washte in the same sort-of vein as kferr, and curly chick is a fellow Brit in Dublin.

And Gary Kumquat too, in Scotland. There’s someone else from Scotland as well, and someone from Cardiff, too.

Come on…which one of you is it?? Own up!

just kidding - it’s one of my favourite places

I’m a Brit…

Celyn is in Glasgow.
Ryan_Liam is in Manchester
Lobsang and Oblong are both on the Isle of Man
Tir_Tinuviel is in South London (Tis South London, isn’t it?)
Nostradamus is in England somewhere, I think
Gartog is in Wales
