I am, you may be surprised to know, about 60% Northern. Somewhere near Doncaster, as it happens. Which is odd, as I lived there many, many years ago!
🙂
I'm 5% Northern which is probably quite enough, tbh.
Phew 10%
100%!
25%! I blame the parents-in-law's influence who originate from Harrogate/ Knaresborough...
Cheers,
Jamie
12%. Thank goodness.
Only 10% poor effort
100% Northern
85 % but i dont drink alcohol and I dont eat chips and gravy
97%
I feel ashamed of the 3%
it's a f'in yorkshire/lancershre test, the north start above there...
I am 79% Northern, which apparently puts me somewhere around Hull. While I am proud to come from the salt of the earth, northern working classes, Hull FFS, the shame, me mum will never talk to me again.
25%! I blame the parents-in-law's influence who originate from Harrogate/ Knaresborough...
If they had come from the North, rather than a southern enclave, you could have scored higher.
ONEHUUUNDRED!
Somewhere around Newcastle. Spot on, but living in Scotlandshire.
60%, and I'm south of the Surrey Hills
Only 90%! I am outraged!!!
"23% northern: Somewhere around London"
That's [i]scientific [/i]accuracy, that is! 😀
Its pretty accurate, I'm from Stockton on Tees
90% northern
That's somewhere around Middlesbrough
70% Northern (Hull-ish). I've said before that Cannock has northern aspirations. That's why everyone rides orange 5s
55% and ashamed as I'm southern as they come!
5% and that's only because I've seen pictures of an 'oat cake' in a magazine so knew what it was.
My mum considers herself 100% Scottish which is odd as her father was from Accrington..
Needs 'Other' options 🙂
37% which put me 'somewhere around Oxford' which is actually where I live. Can't argue with that really.
7% - which I reckon is purely as a result of having ulcerative colitis which caused me to try oatcakes and drink bitter instead of cider
I feel sick.. The ways this disease can rob you of your dignity know no mercy

100% northern,Newcastle apparently
85% Northern - Somewhere around York.
Well, as I originally came from Yeadon, it seems pretty good to me!!
Rachel
that bloody test is clearly devised by a southerner.
it's pie 'n peas w'mint sauce roun'dere, not gravy.
100% and proud - but being a Mackem (now living in Leeds) a bit miffed at the Newcastle reference!
30%
90% northern
That's somewhere around Middlesbrough
90% here too. I'm from Middlesbrough.
I haven't lived there for 15 years so I'm pretty glad I'm still a Boro Boy.
Whilst I know what an oatcake is, I don't like them. And I don't know what a pie barm is.
Now, where do I get my certificate and White Rose sticker?
100% northern, which isn't quite right as I live in Worksop, north Notts!
10% because I know what an OatCake is?
Pathetic..
I know where H'rogate is dontchaknow.. 🙄
0%
5 years living in the desolate North did me no harm it seems.
Anyway, aren't Oatcakes a midlands thing?
I remember picking up my Roadrat from Swinnerton's (on the way up to the proper noth) on a Saturday morning, and seeing a [i]massive [/i]queue, right down the street, for the Oatcake shop a few doors down. Thats about all they sold, oatcakes- needless to say we tried some and they were alright, not as good as the ones in the cafe on the Hardhurst Farm campsite in Hope tho...
Cheers,
Jamie
Wow, 100%, somewhere around Newcastle. Not very accurate.
70%, despite being Southern.
75%
I blame the missing 25% on Thatcher.
100% - Newcastle ! ......
T' bl**dy cheek, I'm Yorkshire born and bred not a Geordie !
Off topic!
which I reckon is purely as a result of having ulcerative colitis which caused me to try oatcakes and drink bitter instead of cider
Yunki, I was diagnosed earlier this year, been taking Asacol and seem to be able to eat & drink whatever, tho I wasn't too good after a curry recently 😳 Have you changed your diet drastically? I ask because I've not been feeling as healthy as I did a few months ago, wondering if getting much more fibre in my diet might help?
Cheers,
Jamie
77% Northern, grew up on the Channel Islands...
85% Northern - Somewhere around York.
Grew up in Wakefield, so I can cope with that.
Interestingly, the big arrow on the map is pointing nearer Tynemouth which is nearer to where I live now.
Disappointed, born and bred in Cumbria (although technically it was Lancashire when I was born) and only got 83%.
85%, somewhere near York.
That'll do me, born and first decade in NornIrn, then Middlesbrough, Nottingham, Worthing(sorry) and Doncaster.
The question about bread goods could put folk off though, see:

Aye hmmm 100% tha'knows !
100% (unsurprisingly). But somewhere near Newcastle? Thats in the north, its not 'northern'. Bloody stupid inaccurate internet game thing.
100%, somewhere around newcastle. spot on, 6 miles east of the toon
80%. York. so not far off 🙂
I blame my southern other half for extracting 20% out of me.
I'm more worried about at the age of 2 years 2 months my son is 100% born and bred Brummy and already speaks with an accent I don't understand 😀
Since when as a Scottish City ie Newcastle been classed as opp North.
100 😆
'arrogate apparently
No, just kidding, Doncaster which seems rather odd......now where's the map?!?!
P.S. do they still serve mild these days?
It's really funny listening to my wife's uncle and cousins converse, he's broad Yorkshire and moved to Solihull where his two girls grew up!I'm more worried about at the age of 2 years 2 months my son is 100% born and bred Brummy and already speaks with an accent I don't understand
Cheers,
Jamie
Born in London
Drink bitter
Scored 5%
Phew!
75%, not bad considering I was born in Warwickshire. I have lived up here for longer than I lived down there though.
100% Northern. Which is strange because I was born in Swindon and have lived in Sutton Coldfield for about 25 of my 31 years.
[url= http://www.nenevalleybrewery.com/NVB/Our_Beers.html ]They even do it darn sarff[/url] And a very nice pint it is too.do they still serve mild these days
Cheers,
Jamie
100%. 'appen! 😀
97%, get in!
Middlesborough?!!>?
🙁 there was no need to be rude....
Southern nancies....
100%, and I originally come from a place so far south th'animals have pockets.
I love the tube talk thing, and have chatted away quite happily to whoever sits next to me when I visit. Some of the reactions are funny.
2%, somewhere near Jersey...
London born and live in Spain, so that's a relief 🙂
southerner (with a good stint in the north though)
drink mild when its available
scored 65%
100% - Newcastle. I live in Cumbria and am from Lancashire, so I'm 'appy wi' that, me.
90%
"somewhere around Middlesbrough"
Yes, Eston.
100%, expected nothing less!! Yorkshire born and bred.
50% - clearly a mongrel from the South. Adopted by nice Geordie in-laws.
30%! Oxford, I feel Dirty! 😉
North of Winchester's up north round these parts.
I love up north really, except the grim bits, not going back to Rotherham in a hurry again, sorry Rothermites, was proper grim in places.
100% and near newcastle, which is total tripe........ 😀
90%"somewhere around Middlesbrough"
Yes, Eston.
did you rob my mate's bike when we were up the hills?
89%, do fairly accurate.
90% me, would have been more if I'd known the playground games. No time for skhool me. Not bad guess the family are from South Shields even if I'm from Yorkshire
92% 🙂
97% northern
That's somewhere around Middlesbrough
Cheeky bastard. I'm from Darlington.
0%, lovely jubbly
Born and bread in Oxfordshire.
Apparently I am 90% Northern.
Maybe 10 years living in Manchester has had more of an influence than I realised. However, 'tea' has always been 'tea', not dinner or (heaven forbid) 'supper'.
100% - somewhere near Newcastle. not quite, but mrs_d is. I'm southern compared to her
Bratfud
95% Northern. No way that 5% is southern, probably Scotlandish.
Zero. But as I have always lived within a spit of the Solent and my family comes from the Isle of Wight isn't that great a surprise.
I did venture North of Winchester once, but it was grim.
88%. Rubbish - I'm a midlander who has gone native in Zummerset 🙄
A colleague has just explained that pie barm is a pie in a sandwich!! WTF!!! 😯
Ha! I was actually on Ilkley Moor a few days ago.
70%. Northern roots and some sympathies, but pretty much southern.
100% northern is accurate, but I'll batter the coder who reckons I live in Newcastle...
