Where are you?

I agree wholeheartedly with having our country next to our name. I've read so many posts where they say 'here it's blah blah whatever' and I have no idea where is 'here'? It doesn't seem to be the UK, and they have given some very interesting information about something in their country, but where on earth are they?

Hampshire UK ?

North Devon

East Hertfordshire

DorothyGlamour, the post was not really asking people to reply with their location, but it is lovely to see how many are happy to give their area. We are a virtual community, friends, confidantes, advisers, jokers, sharers, and it doesn't matter where we are, but sometimes it would be useful/interesting to know a location.

Nancat, I read your post that you meant it might be helpful if we included our country in our posts so that others knew that we were providing information based upon our home countries. Was that your intention?

I'm confused by the posts above where people have simply posted where they are from although those do answer your question.

Wales

Kent.

Surrey England last 6 years before that S Wales

Boston, Lincolnshire

I'm in the Cotswolds. I agree with PollyDolly, I'm not suggesting that responses be limited to our own Country, but think it could be useful to know that advice offered may be different elsewhere. I totally agree that kindness and friendship should be, and mainly is, regardless of location.

Currently in a chateau in Bordeaux but back home to East Yorkshire next weekend.

I am in the East Midlands. I don't think it matters where we live, if we need advice or support then reaching out should not restrict responses to our home country. Legal information might not be the same worldwide but kindness and friendship should know no borders.

Several of my longstanding friends are from the USA. I have never had a problem with their nationally. One cannot and should not generalise about any nationality.

You can always tell a US poster by their terminology.

I am not sure about this idea. There was a somewhat hysterical and deeply unpleasant post on the thread about Meghan Markle towards an American poster. Responses like those may put off others from giving that information.

I was going to say, as long as it doesn't say US all will be well.
