I believe that's how it works. It used to be if you were born within the sound of the Bow Bells, but that's more cockney I think.

Ok, Ok, I stand reasonably corrected..... :whistle:

But 6 and 2 ishes (your word cheeky wolf :P ) so far, is not a vast number.

Maybe I was just expecting floods of people to be leaving London!!

I agree essjay. It always seems to me there's more people from the North than the South too.

Once I have time and map everyone out, it'll be interesting to see.
