Why do I have EN-US CultureUiInfo where everything set to UK?
My dev machine is W7 64. In Region and Languages I have:
- Format : English (United Kingdom)
- Current Location : United Kingdom
- Default input language : English (United Kingdom)
However when I query Thread.CurrentThread ..
CultureInfo is en-GB and CultureUiInfo is en-US
where the US comes from??

Assuming that you are referring to Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture this property defaults to the culture of the display language of your operating system which presumably is en-US.
Depending on your version and edition of Windows you can install additional language packs and/or reinstall another language version of Windows to change the display language.
However, as far as I know there does not exist a specific British English version of Windows.
