You should find a link at the bottom the that Google page to go to your local Google site in case Google detects your location.

Ye it says Use Google.co.uk but when I click that and go back home and then search again in the search bar , it goes back to Google.com

And how do I create a cookie?

Google should create those cookies automatically.

You can inspect and manage the cookies for the domain in the currently selected tab:

• Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
• Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
• Click "View Cookies" to view the cookies for the domain in the currently selected tab
• Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

Oh okay, I deleted the google.com cookies and it doesn't change? Do I have to do something else to get it to change to UK?

I don't know whether the English (British) installer has a google.co.uk search plugin or uses the same google.com search plugin as the English (US) release. Perhaps it would be easiest to add another search plugin instead of fighting Google's scripts. There are some choices on this page: http://mycroftproject.com/google-search-plugins.html If you find one that works well, you can promote it to default.
