This is the way to go.
I download the UK from download.geofabrik.de once a week or so. Then use
osmosis to divide the UK extract up into the smaller regions as required.
In my case I use poly files (derived from the UK region boundary
relations) to tell osmosis which regions I want.

If you are needing that much data I would strongly recommend starting
off with an extract of the whole country and then trim out what you
need using osmosis. Extract providers can be found here:

And osmosis docs on trimming an extract are here:

I have been struggling to get a largish chunk of open street map
covering an area from the Isles of Scilly in the south west to Bristol
in the north east using commands like:
wget -t 0
http://xapi.openstreetmap.org/api/xapi?map[bbox=-6.41,49.85,-1.68,51.56]
-O souwest.osm
but all I can get is an error - 'connection reset by peer' or 'timeout'
I also tried:
wget -t 0
http://www.overpass-api.de/api/xapi?relation[bbox=-6,49.8,-1.0,51.6][natural=*]
-O souwest-relation-natural.osm
but this required dozens of individual transaction to get results
osmosis refused to read.
am I biting off more than the server can chew or using the wrong
procedure?
could some kind soul point me in the right direction
