The North-South divide - in verse

England's North-South divide has been the object of good-natured humour and debate for decades. And now it's being fought on a new battlefield - poetry.

Football, weather, food and life in general. Nearly all subjects have been covered in the endless banter between northerners and southerners.

But on Monday in Kings Cross, London - the gateway to the North, for rail travellers - the regional differences are being explored in verse.

Poets from either side of the divide - and some who have crossed it - are holding a recital organised by Poet in the City, in which they will be expressing their love or loathing for one side or another.

Yeah, so lets do the thread again, except in poetry form, rite?

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Good question.

I'm a midlander but regard myself as a northerner.

This has already been answered in detailed-map form several times in the other threads.

Midlands =/= Northerner. Midlands are like the ultimate mongrel-failures, complete with industrial wastelands, filthy cities and incredibly grating accents.
