Current North-South membership results -
now when you take the info and normalize with the UK population distribution(sorry - I can't help analysing numbers ) the results are:
Order of density of UHM members per Capita:
1) South West - nearly 2.5 times as many members per capita then the 2nd placed location .......
2) Scotland  followed hot on the heals by .......
3) East of England 
Proping up the top 3 we have .........
4) The North  - bit of a shocker that!
Then trailing well behind is ......
5)Midlands and 6)South East & London
And well and truly last and picking up the pooper scooper is.....
7=) Northern Ireland and Wales

South West still leading with Scotland a few lengths behind in 2nd, but North is now up to 3rd by a head over East of England.

Hoovie, I was thinking whether we should have a poll on how many schools each member went to. I worked out once that I went to around 10 or so from the age of 5 to 15.

Did you move around a fair bit? I bet that's a record.
