I may as well pack up my showel and toolbox and go back down the mine.

There are no mines in the UK any more.

What about anywhere else in the flipping world?

Switzerland:

Ignoring the obvious (EPFL), there are a number of small startups in and around Lausanne interested in Scala.

For my part, I've used Groovy for peripheral scripts (groovlets for spoofing web services for testing), and some production code in limited areas:

1) Data migration
2) Functionality which needs to be flexible, before and after production. For instance we had to generate the text which would appear on an invoice, so we invoked a Groovy script from the server (see http://randomallsorts.blogspot.com/2011/02/replacing-properties-with-groovy-script.html). During testing, we could change the code rapidly without redeploying, and after production, the email addresses etc could easily be changed.

However, personally, nothing major in either Scala or Groovy.
