Forums mIRC Help How to join in/find UK irc servers?

Wotcha buddies ,
I'm asking this because I found hard to join (and finding servers too)in uk networks.
Sorry....I'm not British, but sometimes I'd like to get files in English language. Basically I need to find a search engine for eng. files or try to understand how can I join to Uk irc networks to get a chan list and then to do what I'm used to do in my lang ;O)

Any suggestions for an Italian man very addicted to British things? Thanks in advance;O)
