i would like to see if a search function could be created to search members in a specific area. ie i choose cardiff and a scroll down menu says nearest first and stating miles away that would be very helpfull. i understand its not a 5 minute job just a idea.;)

Dont quote me on this, but i think its something the committee did look into when the new website was being built.... unsure why it never happened... think it was top of the list.... but defo a handy feature.

thats very well but for example i typed in cardiff and nothing comes up but i know members live very close so there profile location may have a different name within cardiff if you get what im saying;)

yeah a postcode search would be a better option with a distance selector ie 5 miles 10 miles etc.....
