over a year ago

Moved here from London in February.

Hmmm my thoughts. The people in the main are friendly enough. Everywhere looks abit like detroit and could do with a coat of paint. One request, pick ya fucking up. Oh..and who the fuck thought it was a great idea to build the trafford centre next to a shit pit..sigh..ya have to wonder at what the convo was at the planning meeting.....eeee lads n lassies..l ave an idea..thy knows we need somewhere for t' folk t' go and get pissed..ow about building a chav looking shopping mall next t' local shit pit.

I notice trackie bottoms are still top fashion up here and that most of the men either have that gypsey five o'clock shadow or a 50 inch waist line from beer or barm cakes.

Not sure who Jessie is or pal. My name is Adam you northern monkey.

Quite a few women up here, especially Wigan with their scraped back pony tailed hair hooped earrings and see through black leggings look like they would chop your head off and spit down your neck but to be frank l kinda like their straightforward openess.

Let the fun begin..

You know full well. Its one of your teacakes, but it has to be flat and cooked in the bottom of the oven. Our teacakes have currants in them. We only do it to confuse you. At least on both sides of the pennines you can get gravy or curry in the chippy.

"Shows how bad your view of southerners is if you chose to move to your idea of hell.

Given you call Cheshire north my guess your level of iq equals the number of friends in jolly old mary poppins cor blimey guvnor town.

and no I'm not a defensive manc. I grew up in a posh southern town and have lived in Newcastle Leeds london.

I wish I was as broad minded and adventurous as a southerner.a day trip to oxford would be a safari!

If the south truly does not value anywhere north of watford, tell your Westminster chums to cancel HS2 and save billions.

Watford is north to us Londoners. "

"i took it to be light hearted banter !!

strange how some people post very contentious posts and everyone is rolling in the isles getting the joke and an unknown does the same thing and we need the firing squad on speed dial to deal with it "

Always happens. It's why people say there's a clique.

If you're not a somebody, you're a nobody.

"I thought northerners were meant to be friendly and have a sense of humour.

A few have treated the thread in a light hearted way but others , blimey . "

Lol..they are..in all honesty l love it up here. I love the honesty of straightforwardness. Lol is that a word. Sure you are going to meet twats up here. But l haven't and l go everywhere l like including pubs where it goes kinda quiet with that " your not from around here are you look "

Love it. Yeah it has a hard edge..but the people just crack on. I get called treacle, cockney bastard, southern softy and when they hear l support crystal palace..most fall about laughing and then show a kinda sneaking support lol.

My whole view of the north has changed..hard times over a very long time has created a very proud people, hard, tough, humourous in adversity. And frankly they are the first to offer a stranger a hand when help is needed. Sorry to those who didn't get or understand the intended humour..l sharn't give up the day job..or tread the comedy club circuit up here lol

Where in the thread does it say the north is undervalued.

Our description of anyone north of Watford is a northerner, it's not a derogatory term it's a fact. You are north from us.

"I went to southern bit of the Oop North this week. It was fine. They even had cocktails.

Watford Gap services do cocktails?

I ordered a Cosmopolitan in Manchester and the northerners with me kept asking what I was drinking. I let them have a taste and then they all ordered them. I might have started a trend in the Oop North.

"

Named after the cosmopolitan hotel in Leeds where it was invented* they serve other cocktails as well. such as lager top and bitter shandys.
