A few days ago I posted about having a steem meetup in Bristol.
I didn't get any takers 😢
But I wasn't wholly surprised. I haven't been looking hard to date, but I can't recall actually seeing any people on steem from the Bristol area.
So where are all the active steemians in the UK now?
And I wonder how many there are?
On my radio show last week @rea estimated that there are about 25 active steemians left in London.
I am guessing the biggest cluster of active steemians must be in London.
In Wales I know there are only half a dozen or so.
So for the UK as a whole... maybe around a hundred?
That's not a lot so we'd better stick together.
Many moons ago, when I was still a baby steemian, I scratched a mark in the sacred ground of steem when I initiated the list of Homesteaders and Preppers on steem.
It proved to be fantastically worthwhile and useful. I got to know every homesteader and prepper on steem and the seed of that community aggregation was born.
Maybe I need to make another list. This time of active steemians in Britain.
For networking, for meetups and just generally for getting to know each other.
I think I might segregate the list into broadbrush geographical regions. Maybe starting with :
- London & the South East
- The Midlands
- Wales & the South West
- The North
- Scotland
- Northern Ireland
So I will throw a few together from memory for starters and see where this takes us.
If you would like to be on this list comment below or message me on Discord (@Pennsif#9921). If you don't want to be on the list let me know likewise.
I'm guessing some of the regional placements - let me know if I have put you in the wrong region. Active I'm loosely defining as posting regularly - at least weekly?

Let's see how big a list we can build...

@perceptualflaws is in Devon. @digitaldan was up north somewhere but may have jumped ship. I can't get my sister in law on Steemit (she's near Radstock) as she is a Facebook addict. A shame as she would be a really interesting steam person. If I was there I would meet you in Brizzle.

No. She is very stubborn. And she has a huge friend network who mostly are on Facebook so I can't see her changing her mind. She just laughed the entire concept out of the water. Like many people do Kama they just shut you down and when you mention the word cryptocurrency and don't want to hear about it. Whatever haha xx
