Just curious how spread out we are. I’m up in West Yorkshire myself.

Australia. It’s a fair walk.
Suffolk. Detectorists country.
The Detectorists is incredible. It’s my go to comfort watch.
Same. I love that show.
It makes me cry, in a nice way
Me too lol. Like, this is so wholesome and cosy I’m going to cry now.
Canada… This post appeared on my feed on kbin.social 🤷
I am addicted to UK panel shows and comedy though, so there’s a connection?
Favorite panel show?
I love QI and Cats does Countdown. And although it’s not exactly a panel show, I’m a big fan of Taskmaster.
I’m also from Canada (Southern Ontario) and love all those shows as well. Be sure to check out The Unbelievable Truth radio show as well. Currently listening through a second time I enjoyed it so much!
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check it out!
Have you managed to find a shred of info about why the latest season of Cats only did one episode then just… stopped? Whenever I try to google it I can’t seem to find anything about it
Not OP but 8oo10cdc and wilty.
Oh I love WILTY
Hi from Oslo, Norway!
Wyoming … shire.
Hahaha, reading through the comments, I was like, am I in a Brit-only sub.
New Mexistan here.
Edit: Ok, maybe I did end up somewhere I’m not supposed to be. Still don’t understand the Fediverse. 🤦🏻♀️
“Am I in a Brit-only sub?” - yes, welcome
We’re Brit-based not Brit-only 🙂

How on earth did you end up in !UKCasual? Not a criticism or anything, I’m just curious. :)
Usually people ask me how the hell I ended up in Wyoming, which is also a fair question. But, as 1st mentioned, you were on the front page.
Y’all are at the top of all right now on kbin. -coming from the northern territory of King Charles the first (North Carolina)

…take my upvote and get out of here.
Very kind, old bean. btw, West London originally, now tropical north Australia.
How are you enjoying the summer? /joke
In the tropics we only have two seasons, wet and dry. These are basically summer and winter. Winter, the good season, started a month or so ago but we’re still getting summer rain. In short, it’s cold, wet and cloudy so just like home in the UK.
I’m down here in Devon.
👋 I’m from Torquay originally. Living in Manchester these days, though.
Hertfordshire, in the Chilterns
Home counties represent!
Snorbins checking in.
Germany, now living in South East England. Not a fan, to be honest with you. I’ll have to stay a bit longer but I don’t see a future here. Housing, cost of living, healthcare, blatant government corruption (or, as it’s called here, “sleaze”, I don’t know why people aren’t calling it out for what it is), an out-of-control Met, systematic neglect of reports of domestic violence and the regular news of women who had reported it, got ignored and then killed by their abusive partners… The list goes on. I really love this country, the countryside here is stunning (especially in the south in the summer), people are so friendly, I have really enjoyed living here, despite lockdowns and the questionable food. But it’s just too much that’s going wrong to stay here long-term, sadly
A lot of that seems to be a London problem rather than a UK problem, but we’ll not discuss the P word here.
I don’t live in London. What’s the P word?
In UKCasual, discussion of p*litics isn’t allowed.
Ah gotcha. Will refrain from doing so
I thought the Met police looked after London?
Hello from Switzerland
Hello, I am from Switzerland too ;-)
I live in California, but I’m from Yorkshire.
There’s a local shop where I can buy mushy peas or scones when necessary.
Don’t buy scones when you can make them super easily

What about Yorkshire Tea? Please tell me you can get Yorkshire Tea and we don’t need to send an urgent food parcel! /joke
I can get it, but Tetley is fairly common in grocery stores now, at normal prices, so I can make do with that!
North London
Username checks out
Liverpool
I’m from Canada but moving to London in a month!
Pre-emptive welcome!
In which case, please allow me to pre-emptively welcome you to the UK! I hope you enjoy your time here. :)
