Got me wondering.
Southerners- how far do they have to live from say... London before they're regarded as 'northern'
Northerners- How far south do you have to live from say... Manchester, before they're regarded as 'southern'

Birmingham is crap.
I have heard anything north of Watford Gap is north. Though I would say anything north of Amersham is north.

A lad i know is from Nottingham, and we always used to call him southern, although he insisted Nottingham was not southern and used to get annoyed with us
