I'm UK based too, currently I see no UK nodes.

@abit what other types of broadband are there?  Are you suggesting a dedicated line just for a block producing node?

Thanks for the reply @abit. 
Is 350Mbs download and 20Mbs upload good enough?

Can someone recommend some links to suitable spec'd hardware.

Would two desktops do, if they are spec'd with top end CPU and 64GB, with two 300+GB SSD's?
Or are proper servers the way forward?
