    We live in civilisation in Yorkshire; not relative civilisation. Relative civilisation doesn’t say much; even Lancashire is relatively civilised. ;)

    Just remember how we see your type.

    (And to be honest, I'm not even fully convinced that that bit of southern Essex should be below the line ...)

    You can talk. I’ve stopped in the ‘Palace’ at Rolvenden. I even helped put the roof on to make it more habitable. ;)

    This just goes to show how wrong the southern perception is. Got to agree about Essex, though, having been there once.
    (With apologies to John Jolly who was very welcoming and friendly. );)

    It is compared with what it used to be. My wife is from Lancashire. I took pity on her and took her in. Now has honorary Yorkshirewoman status and is proud of it. ;)

    The line is too far north!.When you approach the Dartford crossing the signs say 'To the North' and then you reach Essex.

    No, but when I worked in East Grinstead, I was told it had the highest concentrations of paedophiles and cult members of anywhere in the UK.
