wot about Norfolk!! We are sooooo full of soul here :lol:

Sorry Mobbsy

You will have to decide between the east mids or south east.

Think you should have split Wales up into North & South, as us in the North have more in common with the North West than South Wales, it takes 4 hours to get there, I can travel to Leeds, Sheffield, Birmingham in half that time. Never been to soul night down there, I know they do, but never really heard a lot about them, and never seen them advertised on soul source so I guess considering the population down there is larger than the north, there's not enough southern Welsh soulies to support regular nights, or am I wrong.

Sorry Mobbsy

I cant edit the poll anymore but your always welcome in the North West, we are all very friendly up here.

Be nice to see where everyone got their introduction to Soul.

Then I wouldn't have to be associated with the South East - even if it is the winning team (at the moment).

It Was a late request that has back fired on a few.

But still interesting results .

Yeah three options for the midlands has split the Midlands vote, i'll take it as 18 for the Midlands then. :)

Good idea this, how about one for age/sex etc... and gather all the finding together in some kind of census? Any data collection people out there want to take it on?

:lol::ohmy::yes:

Seriously though, Midlands is storming!

And who said there's no souls in the south!? :)

pretty much so Steve but it depends on what side of the street :ohmy:

Man of Kent or Kentish Man I guess? In my case neither as I am originally from sarf Lundun. :yes:

Scotland at 9.03% is about exactly right as a percentage of total UK population. Surprised I thought the north and midlands would easily outvote Scotland per head of population. Must be all the Hibees.

Yorkshire covers parts of the East Midlands, Humberside and the North East so it's difficult to fit it within the parameters that you have set.

Very few people from South Yorkshire would say that they are from the East Midlands, most people from Leeds would say they are from the North as its pretty much central in relation to the North East/North West....

Humberside doesn't exist anymore does it? It's the East Riding of Yorkshire :D:(

Hmm.........South East appears to be a real hot bed of soul.

So why is there almost nothing on down here............apart from the odd do thats often poorly attended.

Answers on the back of a 50 quid note pls.

Or if you live up north a potato.

I think the three Midlands options should be just the Midlands....... :D:(:P

Only the north side of the Humber, the south side went back to where it belonged all the time, Good old Lincolinshire. :P

Hi Pete

From the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary.

demographics

plural noun

the quantity and characteristics of the people who live in a particular area, especially in relation to their age, how much money they have and what they spend it on:

The demographics of the country have changed dramatically in recent years.

No one has exact demographics on (= information about the quantity and characteristics of the people who live in) the area.

Would have thought that part was easy for the Soul Scene :lol:

Can we stick to the subject in question please shades.gif

ps Bearsy - as it stands at the moment, South East + South West + London = 65 votes, East Midland + West Midlands + Midlands = 67, North East + North West + North Central = 69... mind you, it's only representative of the people who are on the forum and bothered to vote in the survey so.......
