Reply With Quotethat sneaked South below the River Trent.
When I worked for the Yorkshire region govt people used call us up asking about Northants
They seemed to think, as it had north in it, that it was our patch
that sneaked South below the River Trent.
I followed the route of the Trent on a map recently. It seems to be an utterly illogical c**t of a river, it just meanders about all over the place and nearly doubles back on itself at times.
I don't really understand the north. To the layman, it would seem obvious that the country becomes more strange and barbarous the further up you go, but Birmingham is decidedly more third world than York, for example.
Also Chester seems remarkably civilised, yet lies only moments from Welshwales. Is that because it is of the west, rather than the north?
This is all most bewildering.
lucky they didnt throw him down the well tbh
and 8 children under 4 for the weekend.
Things momentarily picked up when we learned there was a fully-equipped games room in the garden, only to discover a broken baby-foot table, a darts board but no darts and an autobiography of Murray Walker
County towns are always county towns though, hence Chester, York and even Lancaster having relative airs of civility.
I may have mentioned the ex Barnsley miner at t'pit visit who, when asked of his views on Notts miners explained that he was not at liberty to divulge that information, as he had no idea who I was, and that I could be even a copper or something.
