Yes, you're quite right. I don't have any information about how people
in Norway have their browsers set up - do you know where we could find some?

We can do any; not have the English version viewable (very easy), give
you your own header/footer (easy), brand other pages as needed to not
have UK-based bits (not as easy but not hard either, we already have
branding for e.g. http://www.guardian.co.uk/edinburgh/fix-my-street ).
