I'm from Stoke, seems a fair few traders are pretty close. I noticed somebody mention this recently on Twitter & suggested meeting up at a racecourse. Whatever is decided, i'm up for it. Lets get it done!

Strange, I would have expected a fair spread.

BA have got everyones postcodes so could map it fairly easily and presumably it would correlate with population density.
What's being layered on top of this map by this thread is people's tendancy to be sociable.

I'm a geordie which counted against me a few years ago when I was mulling a Trading Masterclass tutorial.....too much a palaver & expense Newcastle to Hook!.....so I went the cheap route and read every single post on this forum as an alternative.

I always said dedication was my main edge, not many others would be prepared to do that.

Perhaps people are friendlier in the north. ;)

Not a bad way to pass the time :)

If anyone is to do this journey there is a Train direct from Newcastle to Basingstoke then 1 change to the next stop Hook, takes about 4.5hrs but its the easiest way from NE & Eastern side of Scotland
Or go via Kings Cross then tube to Waterloo then out to Hook which is slightly faster but involves 3 changes and the fun of the underground and friendly Londoners

I did once go via bus from London Victoria out to Hook - never do again lol!

Buses are so fast time actually slows down as they near maximum speed!

I've lived in both and I beg to differ.
It's just in the south people are getting on with things instead of chatting, it's why London is a global economic powerhouse and in Eccles they sell cakes.
