There's certainly less actual difference in terms of people in the north and the south than some on both sides would like to believe - usually by never leaving their small hallowed patch of either. Needless to say, this statement doesn't apply to Mancunians or people from Cornwall. I was once shot at in Cornwall. Not by some yardie gangster but by some old man sitting on a stone wall. People now think Padstow and Rick Stein when they think of Cornwall. I think of old blokes with rifles taking pot shots at me. The chips there were average at best.
