Just been wondering,

how many posters on here, or the other boards, are scousers or ex-scousers?
How many Mancs?
how many Brummies?

Probably not many responses because there are quite a few other places in the world than those listed!!
An 'other' option might have been a good idea?

For most of the country anyone from south of Watford is a cockney icon_wink.gif

Here's my favourite Scouse joke of all time:

I've always considered the north/south border as watford gap, not watford. One thing is for sure midlanders don't like being called either. I'm happy to say I don't fall into any of the poll categories icon_smile.gif
