In Surrey, we treat Northerners in much the same manner that the Brotherhood of Steel treat Ghouls and people with pre-war technology.

Yeah, I think the biggest difficulty for me is going to be backstory- I know fairly little about the UK, but I guess I'll just make a generic wasteland background and see where it goes from there.

It's really not the exotic - it's a western country with a mixed economy. Day to day domestic life would be exactly the same as anywhere else in the developed world, even after a global nuclear apocalypse.

Lol, its not the culture of the UK thats stumping me, its mainly the geography. I'm currently searching up cities nearby Surrey that my character could've been born in or in the ruins of.

That being said, have any major cities survived/been rebuilt? Sort of like how New Reno was built on top of Reno?

There are no cities in Surrey (it's a county) - London is on the borders, Southampton and Portsmouth are Nearby. There are lots of motorways ("highways") nearby, though, so you could have come from any city you ever heard of (Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, York etc), or any small settlement.

Yeah, though as a previous West Yorkshireman (or Yorkshirewoman? idk how you'd put it), you do not wanna come from Bradford. *shudders*

I know I am not Wade, but generally we use Stone for weight. If you didn't know, a stone is 14lb or thereabout.

People use stone for weighing people, anything else is usually measured in kg. Trust me, I'm an Engineer, we specialize in pedantic, boring details like this. Using imperial units is rather unscientific.

That's what I meant by my post. I do not believe I've ever seen Stone being used for much else, all else is Kg or appropriate metric unit (or imperial one, in certain cases.)
