Thanks so much for the awesome replies- Sorry I touched a nerve. I've read a little bit about both now and feel pathfinders seems a little cooler and more malleable, so we could be exactly what we want to be instead of cliche barbarian orcs, but still, it's no good liking a game better if you can't find anybody to play with anyway.
What I shall do is I shall buy the pathfinder book for us as well and then we play with whoever wants to play with us. That way nobody's feelings are hurt and I can keep my testicles.
we're both Nottingham based, Martin, so we might be a bit far out I suppose. However I know somebody else who'd be willing to play if you wanted to do a monthly game? I suppose it's not too regular but it'd be good to have a few guinea pigs if you're practicing DMing and we'd love to help out I'm sure.

I'll look into the pathfinders organised play a bit more because that sounds like it'd be good for us- Ginga mentioned it and it seemed the cleverest option to get into it. He says the whole community's nice and cool with noobs which is reassuring.
how often to places for beginners come up at vague connections? Every few months or so?
Also: where's the best place to get miniatures for the games?
Sorry I'm peppering you guys with questions after apparently poking a festering wound but this kind of information is hard to come by!
