Cobs in my house!
I'm originally from a place in between Sheffield, Rotherham and Worksop (my address is Sheffield, council is Rotherham and phone code is shared with Worksop!) so we're quite close to the Notts border. I think cob is generally more midlandish than Yorkshire but it's still dumb to call it a cake!
Cob, bap or bread roll - they are the only acceptable terms!

It used to be (and Scunthorpe and Grimsby still are) but there was an article on the BBC a while back saying Lincolnshire has now moved to the south.You think lincolnshire is in the north?
Incidentally, Lincolnshire has always interested me. I, like many of you, have been on numerous holidays to Skegness on the East coast. Skeggy is quite far down (on a level with Grantham) and it's weird that in the North of Lincolnshire you have Grimsby and Scunthorpe which are proper Northern, then down the coast you have similar in Skegness (tho that's probably more to do with all the people that go there from Sheffield!), but you get the train from Skeggy to Leeds (change in Grantham) then you go through all these weird places like Boston and Sleaford where people that get on have really southern Essex accents!

Do not think that is true on this board, as i recall all the Hull born are proud of it, me included.

I hear ya
in a kind of interesting, quirky kind of way. It's England's Vladivostock
i've never been there, but it's up there with doncster in the churning out miserabe cunts who say that it's shite competition

Neither's Sheffield, it's practically Midlands.
people are northern because they come from the northern part of the country they live in you fucking idiot

Of course. Everyone is "northern" if they want to be, having chosen the appropriate region of the world they are from the north of.
Do you consider yourself more "northern" than someone from Rochester? If so, do you consider yourself superior to them?
absolutely
I would argue that the north begins in south yorkshire.

That's good, because I can now consider myself to be considered by you to be considerably superior to you.
nah, nottingham is where it starts
the countryside north of nongham they all talk like he most stereotypical northeners ever
yeah but you aren't
teuchter

In which case your theory is wrong. So either you are wrong or I'm superior.
no, i'm better than you, and you're wrong

I lived in Scunthorpe till I was 13 and my parents live in Cleethorpes now - visited a few times but never lived there - haven't been back to Scunthorpe in years but mates tell me it's more of a shithole now then it was then - if that's possible

You think lincolnshire is in the north?
I see your point but I do feel northern...Grimsby and Cleethorpes are exactly as far north as Liverpool...is Liverpool in the north?
Oh and Hull is definitely shite.

Having lived in Hull for six years, I can only say that's not my experience. I like the city a great deal, and I'd be very happy to move back.
Maybe I just have something against the place having been forced over the Humber Bridge umpteen times as a child...
Hull does at least have the saving grace of being near somewhere worth visiting (like Leeds), which is more than you can say for Grimsby.

Hull is near to Leeds? Has anyone told Leeds?
I've only been there for the purposes of catching the ferry, which I'm sure is it's saving grace - being able to get to Holland or Belgium!
I don't get this 'liverpool etc aren't proper north' thing.
For me, yorkshire, lancashire, etc epitomise what we southerners tend to think of as 'the north.
Newcastle on the other hand is so far north it's south.

around matlock and eastwood is what i always think of as the stereotpye of 'the north' from telly
