Just resolved a problem where the "shop by category" and "domestic only" searches had appeared to stop working.
In the country settings, both "Great Britian" and "United Kingdom" appear in the listings. These are to all intents and purposes two names for the same thing. I had set mine to "Great Britian", as that appears first in the list. This then causes the "shop by category" menu and "domestic only" search to be completely blank. Seems this is due to all UK/GB entries being listed as "United Kingdom". If I change the country to "undeclared" or "united kingdom", all is well again.
When trying to work out why my "shop by category" suddenly dissapeared I searched the forums and found a few people with the same problem without a fix, I'll wager this is the issue.
I'd suggest merging both these categories into just the "United Kingdom" to remove any confusion.
(yes, there is a minor legislative difference re Northern Ireland, but in day to day practice they are de facto the same entity. Put it this way - 9 out of 10 people who live there problably couldn't tell you what the difference is)

Agree this is a bug - I had the same thing a few weeks ago and it took me an hour or so to fix it as you say by changing my location to 'United Kingdom' instead of 'Great Britain'.
Just need to get rid of 'Great Britain' as an option in the location list.
