Jules. Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 We are from Lancashire but our families still talk about us having moved 'down south' to Leicestershire! They are so right, too I think that where you are is south Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 26, 2007 Author Share Posted October 26, 2007 I feel Oop North in Sheffield, but when I visit my son in Leicester, I don't feel that I've gone Dahn Sarth as it takes no time at all to get there, and the local accent isn't southern, it's more Midlands. I saw Sheffield described as North Midlands recently. Never in a Million years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Many parts of South Yorkshire (classed as North usually) are level with many parts of Lincolnshire which aren't classed as North but Midlands.....or even South now in the new research! This topic has certainly created a good discussion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocolatedog Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I always find it amusing driving up from the in-laws (West Sussex) and seeing the overhead gantry signs on the motorway signing you to "The North" - I've never actually spotted the sign that says "The North - you have reached your destination".........

Richard Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 well my children are and I speak for them (well 2of 3) My Mum was from London, and I was actually born in Surrey before coming back to near the village where my Dad's family has lived for ages and ages - so technically so am I. But I am definately not a Southerner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
