Hey, anyone from Scotland around? Camping trip soon? yay? no? hehe is there anyone out there...??? xx
I'm in NE England, and certainly feel closer to Scotland than I do to southern England. You'll not get me on camping trips while the weather's this crappy like! Welcome to the forums
well I'm from southern England and always felt more at home in Edinburgh than in the north of England. Glasgow's pretty cool too. BTW I used to live in Embra, not just join in the annual migration of London's smart set to the Festie.
Why do the Northerners have such a grudge against the Southerners in England? It's not like the Celts and English grudge, is it?
I don't think I have the grudge personally. I'm not a London fan, it's far too busy for my liking and I avoid the place at all costs! But southerners in general are a-okay if you ask me. I do know people who openly admit to...not disliking, but certainly not admiring southerners. And I reckon, to put it in a schoolyard context, that they think northerners are the ones skiving and sneaking off for cigarettes and southerners are all swots, with snooty accents and sharp suits But I dunno, it's one take on it.
i'm form Scotland, was supposed to go camping at loch lomond at the weekend there but it was a no go due to the typical unpredictable weather.. that's one thing you can rely on is the weather being unreliable. I have no grudge with the English either and i can't understand why people can say in general that they hate the English, or vice-versa.. :/
yep i'm a scot going camping on friday, lots of places to go here in the north-east on the scotland/england thing: any kind of prejudice pisses me off, i totally fail to comprehend it at all.
I don't like southerners and I have no rational reason for this other than, HATE, HATE and more HATE!!!!! With a dash of jealousy.
arty: :H some one has to live there.(only joking) scotland is a near place.its where the best whiskey comes from.
Scotland is not a place I have been too often. I have been twice in my whole life. Apparently it is very cold but certain villages boast some of the best Lobster and fish one can get off british shores. I am young and may travel up there one day. It takes a day to get to Scotland by car and about 6 hours by train from Kings Cross or Euston. I am strictly in the Southeast part of England.
Its because northerners are just basically your average joe worker who likes nothing better than racing pidgeons, greyhound racing and a pint with a steak and kidney pie. they say "Eee bah Gum" a lot and they also talk shit about how hard they work and about how their dads would work from 6 in the morning till 5 in the morning and then would only eat at weekends etc They are workin class people with no aspirations, whereas southerners are sophisticated and not like those yokels and bumpkins
hamish fae aberdeen in scotland here. bloody love the scots, best hardy breed around. hate the english because theyre pompess fancy bastards. but mainly cos that accent has doomed the nation. (goes for welsh too).
