    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:

    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 😀

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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’.

    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.

    100% northern is accurate, but I’ll batter the coder who reckons I live in Newcastle…
