Sandy, Beds? How can Bedfordshire be East Anglia?
A propos Derby: Is the Peak District not Derbyshire? That surely is The North, albeit the southernmost of the North. Making Derby itself unequivocally Midlands.
I then started wondering what comprised the South-East, but I realised that that way lead to madness, so I stopped.

Dvorak, it's simple: Inside m25 - central London South of watford gap, east of bristol - greater london West of bristol - Wales North of Watford gap and south of derby - midlands North of derby to newcastle - The North North of Newcastle - Scotland North of inverness - there be dragons

Little Chef is already in.
Love the Fetch Mile definition of East Anglia.
So Braintree (and thus Chelmsford) is/are in. Ipswich (and thus Woodbridge) is/are out.
This makes me most happy.

'south east' is daft as previously stated. Some definitions exclude Kent which is both. Most include Bucks which is neither.

We had a student working with us years ago who claimed Oxford was in the Midlands. Ludicrous

Well East Angular was just one part, albeit a very tiny part

Anyone who's ever attempted the last 20 miles of the Stour Valley Path will happily push those who deny Suffolk has mountains into a cow pat.
