Danb,
London is so big its hard to find a word to describe everyone.
Cockney doesnt, they're only part of the population of the city..
Why would you think i'd try hard to be nasty about Londoners? :blink:
Its the whole of the South i hate :P
@ Biggles,
We'll stop calling you Jocks, as soon as that border gets moved 100 miles or so south.... like i've been asking all these years ;)
Wow, your rivalries are very intimate. It reminds me of our highschool rivalries, very local. I bet this leads to lots of drunken fights.Quote:

Geordies come from "Newcastle upon Tyne", on the North East Coast of Engand, about 70-80 miles from the Scottish Border, and is shown on your Map.
"Mackerals" (Actually Mackems) come from Sunderland, which is the closest city to Newcastle upon Tyne (about 12 miles away)... and is also shown on your Map.
You can get a cheap flight to Dublin from Newcastle.. I think its about £19 ($35? )
In the US, professional sports rivalries are much more spread out. Growing up in St. Louis, the closest rival I cared about was Chicago, about 500 km away.

Just for scale, the entire UK could fit into Nevada.
