Potsy, Arch, Speich, Jo.. are you all out enjoying this glorious weather. Apart from Jo you are all oop norf aren't you? Where it rains every day...

Speich a northerner?

 

[Speicher]

No, I am a person from the South Westershire.

Beautiful weather here today, thank you. But dark clouds were gathering just before dusk.

 

[ianrauk]

Sorry Speich for lumping you in with the gloomy norf!

You need to change the settings to make sure you only get admin messages coming to you

Gloomy! Gloomy!

We were too hot most of last week, and this afternoon.

 

[Speicher]

I am wondering why Ian thought I was from oop norf?

Whats wrong with living up here everything is really cheap compared with down there, if I lived down there I would have to actually do some proper work bollocks to that

It's probably a Born and Bred Londoner's 'Watford Rule' - anything north of Watford is considered Oop Norf.

How can the South west be north of Northampton? Northampton being the biggest town nearest Watford Gap.

Or are you suggesting that Hemel Hempstead is also in the norf?

Young Henry has been wearing out your brain cell then?
