I'm around 100 miles from you, but if you ever find yourself in the Norwich area, please let me know, I'd love to meet up! I've been here 7 months (in 2 days) and I'm a housewife, so I have the days to myself (and our two bunnies). I'm really outgoing online, but extremely shy in person.  :)

Hopefully some Nottinghamshire/Derbyshire folks will turn up here for you, katmatutat!  I'm about 80-odd miles north of you in Leeds, West Yorkshire.

Moved here from Florida - last lived in Tampa Bay & miss the weather there.  But I'm not originally from Florida, was born & raised in Kansas.

Another thing you might try is this other website:  http://www.meetup.com/cities/gb/ -- it seems to have stuff for book groups, music lovers & other social get togethers.  Or alternatively, check with your local libraries, book stores, etc.

Good luck!
