I find your snotty Southern slur on our ethnic Northern methods of naming districts offensive :P

What did your school report say? Perhaps:

Geography: She does well to find her way home.

I don't live in the South.

Jennie Rigg said...

Market Harborough isn't South? Bwahahahahahahahaha you're deluding yourself, mate! Anywhere South of the River Calder is South. You're DEEP South.
