    As a Mancunian, let me tell you they're fucking "muffins". Fuck yer "rolls" and yer "barms", yer know nowt.

    Nah, in all honesty, it's a bone of contention between different areas of Manchester as to the barm/muffin controversy.

    I don't fucking think so, battyman. But this does have the potential to be a good thread, so here's my contribution - Only women from Harpurhey have a look and facial structure that some would unkindly describe as "hardfaced", but which I'd say is indicitive of intelligence and character. Now this look and facial shape defies all races and yet does seem to be largely confined to the North Mancunian suburb of H/Hey. Not collyhurst, not Monsall, not Moston, not Miles Platting. Fuck knows why.

    One thing I do know, the North Mancunian people, well, you'll never find better.

    It has, we can mention the Smiths and the Mondays but who could forget hidden gems like The Chameleons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwxkLByt68"]YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. and then there's people like Liz Naylor and Carol Morley who you're unlikely to have heard of.
