Sean Hampsey Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 You know Sean..you are probably right . tend to think of the east Midlands as lincolnshire way if any one asks me ..Im from the midlands Bazza No, I think you're right mate. Couldn't get any more 'Middle' than Chesterfield way... but at the time I voted you hadn't asked for a 'Midlands Only' category... so I went with East Midlands (purely cos if I'd said West Midlands it would make me out a Brummie... and who'd wanna be one o' those!).

Guest Netspeaky Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 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.

Simsy Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 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? Seriously though, Midlands is storming! And who said there's no souls in the south!? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Steve G Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 pretty much so Steve but it depends on what side of the street Man of Kent or Kentish Man I guess? In my case neither as I am originally from sarf Lundun. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
soulfulsaint Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Scotland at 9.03% is about exactly right as a percentage of total UK population.

Chalky Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 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 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soulsmith Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Hmm.........South East appears to be a real hot bed of soul.

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