>My main comment was that the proposal didn't 'sit' well with the government regional structures.
I do have to make the comment though that the government regional structures are rather arbitrary and do not reflect real cultural regions. Where I am in Southampton, I'm supposedly in the same governnment regional area as places 100 or 150 miles east of me, yet places just 10 miles to the northwest are in a different regional area. Thus if we are to organise English regional chapters, they should revolve around real population centres (e.g. Southampton/Portsmouth/Bournemouth, Bristol, Newcastle, etc) rather than arbitrary and meaningless government definitions.
