Can't change Google to regional results on brand new Air

Hi, I can't seem to get my google search bar to search google.co.uk instead of US version on a brand new machine. This seems a basic need to me. I don't want a plug in or work around to fix my issue to clutter up my machine, I would just like it to provide results relevant to me, as I'm sure everyone else would.

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.6.8), 11 inch

If you want to fix your Google search to a specific Google location, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:

which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff! Such as enabling Safari to run full-screen, and more.)


(It adds items to Safari Preferences).


Not only does it already list a number of search engines and regions, but you can also add any other search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:

Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field.
