You know, I was born down south- Surrey, as it happens- and lived in Wales for a long time before moving up here, north of the Tyne, to Newcastle, but I think the anti-mackem comments here are borderline offensive. Take it easy chaps! Plenty of good folk live there too you know.

Ah well you see, your only a long term visitor then.

The Geordie/Mackem trade off has been going since God was a lad, and will continue to do so when/if you return to lager top land. (No offence. :D)

“Jellied eels anyone?” 😉
