Thank you for participating in our poll.

If you will go here, and start a new thread, you will get welcomed more properly. Please tell us a little about yourself, we're a nosy bunch, and love to know about our members! (this isn't mandatory..) I"m just afraid your 'hello' will get lost amonst these 'comedians'

Scotland - 5,000,000

(Wales - 3,000,000
N. Ireland - 1,700,000)

Ahh......so either England is ignoring our poll, (I know we must have more members that that!) or Scotland reads more?

Hmm, I'd go for the reading Scots... You see, it rains a lot there, and laying in bed doing other fun things will get boring at some point... So, you might as well start reading in bed.


Besides, wasn't the national past time of the English to steel sheep? Or was that the other way around?

I don't remember seeing metal sheep on either side of the border.
We have a lot of papier mache cows in Edinburgh though.

It says 2006 - are they still there?

Just spotted England have been overtaken by Canada - we're out of the medal positions!
Come on, England - get voting!!

Now we're level, oh the excitement! - well done, that last voter.

And, it looks like Australia/New Zealand have a combine approximate population (Wiki and Population Clock) of

25,574,957.

And they have 5 votes. Again, I'm just sayin'. Interesting, very interesting!
