I quite like the South West, but it's too crowded

The South-West is significantly less crowded than either the North-West or the North-East.

Cheshire may be geographically in the North, but judged by all other criteria it's basically Essex with a slightly nicer accent.

It f***ing is not Essex!

Surrey, maybe 🙂

every area has to have a place for lad-de-dah posh folk to live… oop North we call that place Cheshire more faux grais* than flat cap.

Exactly. The people who live in the other parts of the North generally clean the houses of, or work in the companies owned by, the people who live in Cheshire 🙂

Cornwall – 144 people per square kilometre.
Northumberland – 62 people per square kilometre. THERE IS NO-ONE THERE! 🙂

IHN,
Cheshire is renowned as the home of rich people with very little taste, typically footballers, DJ's & soap stars.
Apart from the various mounds of cocaine and silicone littering the landscape, it's basically flat.
It provides very little distraction when travelling through it to North Wales, which is probably the best that can be said about the place. 😀

AND you've got Stockport, a place that makes Mytholmroyd seem like Las Vegas. When the best thing about a place is a biscuit factory, you know you're in trouble.

Just been up to Halifax for the weekend (moved away 12yrs ago) heard about the asian v locals conflicts first hand. Wouldnt move back for all the bikes in the world.

I have lived in tottenham, Central Finchley, Streatham, Camden, Dalston, Wandsworth, over quite a few years. In fairly shitty conditions. So, I'd like to say, with proper exerience…

That I am happy Elfinsafety lives in London.

(love ya mate just kiddin)

aww. soz mate. better move up north eh? better for your health lol!!

are we gonna give this one up then? each to their own eh? eh? EH?

heard about the asian v locals conflicts

Wonder which "side " you heard it from?
Hope you dont have any trouble with the locals where you relocated too.

Yeah that's right it's jammed packed up here stay away.

Just watched Fred Dibnah, legend of legends btw, and reminded me of why I love northern people so much. 'Did yer lark that' Wouldnt sound as good coming from a southern shandy drinker now would it 😉

….wait …..wait …..wait….now all shout together…R

The comment was factual and only has some bias in your tiny mind.

asian v locals

I'm assuming the 'Asians' are just temporary visitors, rather than 'locals' themselves….

(Settles in for the night with a few beers and some sandwiches)

aww. soz mate.

No you've upset me too much.

And more pics? Din't get the pylon one. 🙁

Just watched Fred Dibnah, legend of legends

The Dibmeister cannot ever be bettered.

So after 7 pages we can confirm it is better living up North. Thank you and good night, time to go for a couple of pints of real beer and check out the fat girls.

Seems folk can't even decide what 'up North' actually is, so, erm, no.

asian v locals

Ah, i see sorry…residents of an asian heritage v everyone else conflicts.

If thats better for you, I'll be doing something more interesting whilst you lot do your stuff.

So aren't the 'residents of an Asian heritage' locals themselves then?

And what are these conflicts? I'm not denying there are some, as there are conflicts between different groups all over, just interested in the nature of said conflicts.

Got to be said, London is far better integrated culturally, ethnically and socially than the rest of the country.

The comment was factual and only has some bias in your tiny mind.

If you want to insult my tiny mind could you learn the difference between factual and hearsay first 🙄
Yes Elfin they were just passing through [like a crusade 😉 ] to enslave some white girls into the sex industry. they were then off back home to Bradford to oppress their women , impose Sharia law and destroy the fabric of Britain. Very parochial these northerners when they use the word local.

Apparently Fred was a wife beater. this is hearsay factual as a neighbour of his told me.

EDIT: residents of an asian heritage v everyone else conflicts aboriginal british …fixed it for you.

Seriously I have no idea if you are the R word or not but an us and them mentality does not help at all. Clearly the Asians you speak of are local as well. They are likely to be kids and possibly second generation British as well.

The north is anywhere north of the midlands.
Our intergrated culture in the north is second to none, we have sheep,cows,chickens,ducks, pigs and larmas.
Socially in the north we have bingo,pornshops and bar brawls (females normally) so sorry but the north wins again 😉

Hearsay? or Factual

Like I said tiny, blinkered, narrow and probably racist mind.

Ah, so that's conflict between narrow-minded racist bigots, and 'Asian youngsters and anti-fascist activists'.

Where are the locals? I'll tell you; the young Bradfordian Asians. The EDL are mostly racist thugs from elsewhere, intent on inciting racial hatred.

They tried to march in the East End, but shit themselves like the cowardly scum that they truly are.

¡No Pasarán!

(And besides, that article's about Bradford, not Halifax…)

😆

Excellent!

here is the opening line of your evidence

Violence broke out shortly before 2pm as chanting EDL supporters began throwing missiles towards Asian youngsters and anti-fascist activists who had been taunting them with shouts of "Nazi scum off our streets."

So you are scared of the white local sorry my mistake
Here have anbother quote from the article about Bradford 🙄

EDL activists had gathered from around the country for what they called 'The Big One', with many sporting the name of their town area on the back of their t-shirts, including Halifax, Southport, Wales and Scotland.

Oh that just smells so much of FAIL to me. 😆
Who were the locals again ?
Bloody imigrants fighting on your streets oooh cr@p that does not work either you dont live there

PS Your original comment is still hearsay rather than factual? Go on admit that you can google 😆

8) Always a pleasure to lighten things up a bit.

See, we even have much better riots in the North!

Peterloo was a cracker. Had a note from me Mam that day though, so didn't go…… 🙂

Northumberland – 62 people per square kilometre. THERE IS NO-ONE THERE!

I spent a week there in June this year, my third visit. I saw many more people compared to the first time I visited, some 7 years ago. In fact, back then when I rode the classic Clennell Street/Salters Road, literally I only a saw a couple of people … and they were farmers.

Please – stay away from Northumberland. 😉

Crikey still here?

North is better with our fat birds sitting on you maggots from South and with their melons on your face your will be grasping for air.

😆

hold on as Match of the day is about to start I feel certain that Elfin will agree we do have the best footie teams.

Good evening CG… you got your tat yet ?

I feel certain that Elfin will agree we do have the best footie teams.

stumpy – evening! No, bikes are always needing money spent on them. 🙄

I wouldn't disagree with much of that, but it's still in the North.

And Stockport has a hat museum too 😉

I still don't get the North vs South debate at all. I'm from South Wales. There's no rivalry between North and South Wales at all in my experience, even though culturally we are a bit different and have some North/South variance in the Welsh language. There's no real divide between Welsh speakers and English speakers. We're all Welsh and generally very proud of it.

can't speak proper Cymraeg down south! But that's another argument entirely!

Lufli!

Typical of a Taff to say that regards Gogs.

Don Simon to the thread please

There is no rivalry between North and South England the northerns know its much better up here and the southerners come to visit us and ride our trails. Perfect harmony 😀
