Once you get through Clayton Tunnel you are in need of a passport.

The midlands is a corruption of the mad lands,a mythical zone peopled by odd folk with bizarre accents and a belief that Alton Towers is the new Camelot.

The north exists under snow drifts,gloom and glaciers.Here folk adhere to the rule that drink is the cheapest way out of Manchester.

You are joking? I might have to gird my loins and brave a trip to see for myself *shocked*

Thinking about it, if the 'Midlands' do exist surely they are the area of land sandwiched between the North and South Downs; The Weald as we know it?

This would mean that anything south of the South Downs is south and anything north of the North Downs is north?

Makes sense to me? ???

We usually sing.."We are Alba, we are Alba, BHAlba from the .. North" :blush:

But it says on a roadsign in Perthshire "Gateway to the North"!

So really .. We are Alba, we are Alba, BHAlba from the .. South. :lolol:

.. except of course for Tony P, Zed Seagull and the Dundalbas.. who really are from the frozen northern wastelands .. :eek: :lolol: :blush: :angel:
