| Brilliant, theres now a user outside the UK on the map still need more users on there though. If this was an m$ map sadly we wouldnt be able to the UK at all because fo all the little flags. |

Click non US.
and start writing the name of your closest city. And select from the dropdown list. Worked for me.
