Neville , good morning from a sunny Charente.
There's no problem with E-Bay U.K.
It's E-Bay.com in the U.S of A that has changed the designations. It's dead easy to access the U.K site as normal.
We were all over the UK going from London , up to Yorkshire where we lived up to leaving the UK in '97. Went to Cleveleys on the Fylde coast for a night with friends and the fish n'chips !!
Not been back for many years. Very expensive , especially to eat out !!
Motorways were a nightmare for an old sod like me. Too many 'cones' everwhere.
Robin.
