On my old website I used to have a map of UK groups - you cannot see that now, but the list of groups is here.  No idea how many are active.

Sozzy I guess a lot of clubs have dissapeared, long before my time on the amiga scene. If there's ever a Big Bash 3 though I'm so there  :-D

Especially Peterborough, only about 70/80 miles from here  :-)

The Amiga user group scene doesn't look that good as it stands from the response to this thread!

Yeah, it's a shame. I wonder how many active users are around in the U.K still?

I would guestimate somewhere in the order of 500 "active" users...

But I wouldnt say those 500 all support Amiga things anymore, if you know what I mean.
