So why are northern birds so easy then?

The term you're looking for is "more fun".

Maybe it explains why I'm surrounded by "self stimulators" down here.

They're descended from the women the vikings left behind, the ones that were too ugly for a bit of rape and pillage. The current crop are welcoming the invading southerners in the forlorn hope that if they try hard enough they might succeed where their ancestors failed and be taken away from the northern wastelands they call home.

Wipe London off the map (napalm would be nice). No more divide. Everyone's a winner.

I've lived in both, it's only the approach that has to vary...but maybe I'm biased: Having a Scottish accent in London is a passport to pussytown.

Munters don't count and anyway once your lot have got independence we'll be repatriating you to the far, far north.

First we drink your beer, then we shag your women (yes, yours - I've had her), then we put our superior work ethic to use, then we out earn you, then we out bid you for houses, then when we've bilked you senseless we retire back up North with pots of gold.

My mother used to reckon the Viking genes were never far from the surface up north - visible in a good many individuals. (I think she used that to explain away my behaviour as a child.)

It must be to do with the Southern women liking real men, not grease-smooth, latte-drinking, effeminate financial sector workers, etc. One to pay the bills and buy the clothes, the other to get them 'sorted' properly...

For a northerner does sorting the wife mean one black eye or two?...

Biker's Nemesis, earlier.

To be fair, that does look like me.

P.S.

What size are your tyres?
