oh how fucking hilarious.

perhaps you could splash out a bit more and make him board somewhere more - well - central? the less time spent in the north the better. in fact you could probably hire someone during exeat to take him so he need never go north again.

Hmm....not the funniest bit of play-trolling I have seen, sorry!

Calm down, calm down. Speaking as a Scouser who has a dh with a posh BBC accent, and dd with a posh BBC accent (boarding school), I feel proud of my northern heritage.

Up the Northerners!!! (Even Mancunians).

Northernlurker · 13/01/2009 21:24

Mancunians live on the 'wrong' side of the Pennines dontchaknow?
