i used to live in Stockport, then I went to Northumberland for a year when AWP got popular -I came back and couldn't understand how they couldn't get what Os was saying because he was speaking so slowly :lol:

It seems fairly clear to me. Now, there were times when I had to ask D to repeat himself several times in a conversation because he's full on geordie.

The whole package is brilliant, she looks fantastic.

I have always said that here in the States, we make fun of the state directly south of us. I don't know who Texas makes fun of.

Bri, did you like the ones with stars upon thars? :)

All y'all.

:lol:

For PA, it's the state East of us. :haha:

I think you have that backwards.

Ha, I am from that state too.

Waitamin Shawnee, does that mean you make fun of West Virginia, or Kentucky? Because we here in Pennsylvania make fun of West Virginia, even though it's only south of 1/3 of us.

We don't make fun of Maryland. Sometimes we mock Baltimore, but so does everybody. We do make fun of Delaware, but not very often since it has better beaches than Jersey and no sales tax.

We make fun of Md a little bit... for being all KKK around Rising Sun. Although it's gotten better, you'll still want to paddle faster if you hear banjos...

I met some folks from Missouri who talked about a local vigilante Christian group which called themselfs "the word, the sword and the arm of the lord" Others referred to them pejoratively as "The sword, the lord, and the boys in the Ford"

here in Mich, we go for the canucks, eh.

...even though we're north of all y'all so obviously most superior...

We make fun of Kentucky. Of course, I'm on the west side of the state, so KY is south of me. I don't know who they make fun of in Youngstown. :p

In Maine, we made fun of the Frenchies to the north.
In Virginia, it's West Virginia you make fun of, but honestly, even West Virginia is becoming a bit more sophisticated. So we don't joke about them like we used to 15 years ago.

Hoosiers cant get away with making fun of Kentucky... so many of them came from there.

Didn't notice you were a Hoosier! I love me some Indianapolis!

Come on, now.

Yeah, I know.

Indy is nice (and has vastly improved itself in the last decade), but I miss Chicago. I came from the northwest corner of Indiana and have never really considered myself a Hoosier because most of our media was basically Chicago-based.

You're not near Cincinnati are you? I worked there for two years and adored it.

Not really near Cincy, but close enough I've been there a million times. Cincy is my favorite city in Ohio.

I lived near Eden Park on St James...the road that leads directly into one of the parks entrances...where the old tower is. God, I loved it. I was walking distance away from a fantastic view of the Ohio river.

Sounds like it's time for an Ohio gtg.

Why would anyone want to live in Ohio?

5 out of 25. ;)

I would!
Seriously, it's not the weather, the people or even leaving England that means I wouldn't consider living in America (after all, I could always go back!)

It's the fact it's so damn hard to do it legally.

Maybe if I was Mrs Bruce #4....?
Go on, take one for the team :)

As much as I love you, I'm not moving to Ohio for anyone. :headshake

I'd bring you in, but I'm not sure how you'd take the winter months and french fries & cole slaw on your sandwiches. That, and all the Stiller talk. ;)
