Your so-called point being...?

YOU ARE A NORTHERN BASTARD

Flat caps, tripe, life down t'pit, black pudding, Grimsby. Just a few of the things that you hold dear to your heart, for you are now officially a Northern Bastard. Why not celebrate with a good ol' fashioned party in the street with bunting, flags and jelly and custard?

If you are, in fact, a southerner and are reading this then don't be too disappointed. You now have to be friendly to people, pronounce poor as 'poowa' and take baths in a steel bathtub in front of the living room fire. Not really. That would be ridiculous. Just move to Workington.

If you are in fact a true northerner, good on ya! And, we'll see you down south in a couple of years. Just you watch.

In conclusion, I'll si thi later, ya bastard!

Apparently I am also a northern bastard, but considering the furtherest north I have been has been your place. I consider that test to be flawed or I have been listening to you too much

You never listen to me. Nobody ever does.

aw, poor davywavy!
maybe you should invest in a megaphone?

[identity profile] davywavy.livejournal.com 2004-09-03 08:46 am (UTC)(link)
An ear trumpet, perhaps.

Well considering your family's history that may not be a bad idea....

Pardon?

lots of ear trumpets for those who never listen to you AND a megaphone to shout at them for their impudence!
:)

Harrumph.

True, then in that case the test is flawed!

Or those 2 days in Scotland effected me more than I thought!

Much amused!

I too am apparently a Northern Bastard - Although I do love black pudding :)

Mmmmmmmm...Black pudding.

I'm northern? Me? Bah. Apparently those years in Teeside count too much against me.

Ooh, a subject close to my heart!

I love the "now you have to be friendly to people" bit. It's funny because it's true.

Huizzah for the north!

Did you know that LJ won't let you list "the manifest destiny of the Yorkshire people" as an interest?
