North/South divide

I'm originally Grimsby. People there tend to live on Fish n Chips.

Mushy peas with your Fish n Chips are fantastic. Peas were designed for this purpose.

Although its a well known fact that a Yorkshireman is nothing more than a Lancastrian with his brains left behind

And North >South FACT

Mushy peas.... bleeurgh. In the North, you don't get them here! Oh you mean in the middle of the country

Is that like Edinburgh? Its above borders and below highlands.

The middle of our country is Notts and the black country

Aye, might as well. The only people that would disagree are untrustworthy anyway. They'd be one of the following:

Foreign (inc. skirt wearing jocks, micks/paddies, taffs)
Dirty reds on't wrong side o't 'ills
Southern softies

No point bothering any further

Dorothy Perkins? A game shop? Not sure about that, but i can be fun flicking those 'size cubes' at unsuspecting women.

Just remind me... where did Fred Dibnah come from?

I grew up down south where the chippies had onion vinegar, never see it in Yorkshire, not for the lack of looking. Plenty of black pudding!

Exactly. Legend

You've got nobody on par except maybe Compo, Foggy and Cleggy.

I can trump Dibnah with our boy Parkinson, or maybe Dickie Bird

daz · 4 Dec 2006 at 22:44

Northerners think we're southeners, southerners think we're northerners... so where does East Anglia come into it (the good part... Cambridge etc...)?

BigToe · 4 Dec 2006 at 22:45

Fish and chips just isn't right without mushy peas, bits (that's right - bits, not scraps) and a nice cup of tea.

I'll give you them.

What about, say...decent football teams?
