Did you know Watford Gap was the first motorway services in the UK?
Anyone heard the song...."Watford Gap, Watford Gap, a plate of grease and a load of crap" Caused massive issues back in the day, I can tell ya :lol:
Anyway......
North = poor people, dirty black stonework, coal mines, fat women with bleached hair in short skirts, grating accents and stupid phrases;
"our kid"; "ee by gum"; "ecky thump"; "nowt"; "reet good that was"; "why eye pet" etc etc
South = stuck up arrogant people, narrow windy country roads full of caravans, inflated prices, tea rooms, women with pony tales in tweed skirts walking like explorers, Bentley's and Aston Martin's, more grating accents and stupid phrases;
"I say old chap"; "cor blimey govnor"; "ave sam olat"; words starting with wh being pronounced like fw (try it, you'll know what I mean) etc etc
I'm from the East Midlands luckily -)
