Has Google changed? Lost my search...
Very recently when I searched from the IE address bar using Google as my default search engine the results would appear with an option to select results from UK only. Now the only option is "web" (screenshot hopefully shows what I mean) Has something changed or how do I get this back?

When you perform a search using google.co.uk (the UK version of Google), you'll get predominantly UK results. If you'd use google.nl, you'd mostly get results from The Netherlands.
After starting a search, you can click Search Tools, then use the country dropdown to select only UK results.

Of course if Google don't like your browser, they serve you a different page....
