Hereabouts

...Northern when:

You say "I like that, me" as though you're talking about anyone else

You have gravy on everything. Including gravy

You more often find a ferret in your pocket than a phone

You smile at strangers in the street and they don't look at you like you've flashed your tits

You find The Lancashire Hotpots less irritating every day

Add your own!

The general view was a number of years ago, when a Scottish Chippie was announced in the media as having Deep Fried Mars Bars and Curly Wurlies on their menu.

Then other chippies across the UK have followed suit.

They are two different things. A buttie is made with bread slices. A 'barm,' or barm cake, is a bread roll essentially. However, usually leavened with barm, foam formed on fermented alcohol, like beer or wine. Also the correct term to use, as declared by Mr Warbuton, a Lancashire born man, on his packaging

When everyone you know is called "hinny"

When you ask "Ya al'rite"

Its a buttie if there is sliced bread, a soft barmcake is a barm, a cob is crusty and a roll is like a mini french stick

We have brews and yes we take bloody sugar.

If you havent had black pea's and vinegar on bonfire night then you arent northern.

Dinner was acceptable to call any meal bar breakfast.

Real mancunians support united, city can piss off they are the pretenders (dont argue this with me I will bite)

We talk to random strangers even if its old men walking their dog at 5am when you roll in from a night out you still say Mornin' and comment on the weather!
