Just added my rough location to the map. Should have stayed in Malaysia, would have been more interesting :D

Should this topic be made sticky? All our new members may not be aware of this map...

Only just discovered this map ... and I've been hanging around here for years!

Pin added in glamorous Burton-on-Trent. Even my pin smells of Marmite.

Added my pin, chosing my Parisian home (I keep my Acorn vault safe not revealing where the treasures are).

Hungary looked a bit underrepresented on the map, so I've fixed that now.

Not true - you must have missed Phil in Leeswood.

And I'm down towards the other end of the A55 from you, only for tonight though!

Anyway, glad to see you're a 'blue' (willing to travel) - there are still some places left for November's Acorn & BBC Micro User Group meeting in Bolton if you'd like to come along?

Didn't see Phil (sorry Phil) so that's a bit better :)
I was thinking seriously about coming along to Bolton...

Very odd; I just checked the map and my pin had been moved to another town nowhere near where I live. I wonder how that happened! I delete the rogue one and replaced with with a good one.

I lived in Tarland a few years ago, so just a smidge further north. ;)

I'm not the furthest north. There are others, especially in Norway, who are further north. They just haven't put their positions on the map. :)

Germany seems to be severely underrepresented at the moment, so I have added myself. Now we can start organizing a meeting of three!
