Re: North versus South
As a general rule, it is true to say there are far more puffters in the south than up north......mind you, Manchester is coming up fast behind

Re: North versus South
Since I come from Southend, I can talk as an "official" southener. I don't know anyone who thinks Lancashire is full of industry and has no countryside and I don't know one gay person where I live at all.
Still, that doesn't stop anyone from calling me a "Southern Softie" when I'm up North and a "Northern poofter" down South. There's no pleasing some people...

Re: North versus South
We have steak and pepper pies. Down south they dont even have pie, peas and gravy. There must be more puffters down there.

Re: North versus South

Re: North versus South
There's more wealthy and posh people down South. They don't have time for pies.

Re: North versus South
I come from just outside the East end. Mind you, where I come from is scruffy and sells lots of pies.

Re: North versus South
Is mushy peas just a northern thing? To be honest I don't actually know.

Re: North versus South
I couldn't get mushy peas the last time I was in a chippy down south (Kent) It's happen as well really, as I was sharing the car with 3 friends and didn't really want to offend them on the way home.

Re: North versus South
Finding Mushy Peas in the South is like finding a Pork Pie in Pakistan....if you do manage to do it, you'll pay for it but you'll have to think twice before eating it. I would recomend instead a good potion of Jellied eel...lovely stuff...yummy yummy yummy
