This debate is nothing new.
There's an Anglo-Saxon charter from possibly Æthelræd Unræd's reign that mentions someone as bishop for Oxford and the North - or it runs along those lines, anyway.  |

"Northerners who like to complain about Southerners using a r sound in ‘barth’ & ‘parth’….. tell me….. how do you say can’t?"
The "harf passt" people I find odd. Shouldn't it be either haff passt or harf parst? |

Very English thread, you lot have a weird obsession with all that. Personally we know we live in the south of our country, where the middle,North and West are. But it doesn't matter all the same. |

Historically, the River Trent is the beginning of the North.
When Richard of Gloucester (Richard III) was Warden of the North for his Brother Edward, his writ began on the North bank of the Trent.

"If it has more Greggs than Pret it's North. Although the map is more of a diagonal than a straight North/South divide."
What if I am in the south, but I prefer Greggs to pret? 🤔 Outrageous I know. |

That's your choice. I'm not a fan of Pret myself. Overhyped and overpriced. |

You remind me of that time at school when you pick football teams and there's always one kid at the end, that neither side wants. That's you lot in the middle 😂 |

I would say Coventry.
Why? Because like some Southern men on here I am beset by The Fåb Curse™. Most, if not all, of my dates have been with women from Coventry upwards (Birmingham, Manchester, Stirling, Fife...).
The south eludes me. So, yes, Coventry is the demarcation point.
This is a mystery. But then so are women. |

In the Great British tradition of divide and conquer (yes, other nations have also done the same) I have drawn a line. Leeds is now the divide between the North and the South. There is no Midlands. Anything below Leeds is the South. Anything above Leeds is the North. Leeds itself will be split into North Leeds and South Leeds. Enjoy the civil war. May the odds be ever in your favour. |
