A bunch of tweets which show why the North is just better than the South

‘The North ends and South begins when the bus drivers stop waving at each other’

They are, really. Things are just better up North. Sure, the South has warmer weather and shit like Stonehenge and bits of London that aren’t bad to look at, but other than that it’s just not a patch.

Seriously, pints cost a fiver and you’ll be frowned upon for putting cheese on your chips, let alone gravy. Don’t believe us? Here’s some tweets which sum up just why the North beats the South hands down every time.

Forgot to say thanks to the bus driver when getting off this morning and now I'm overcome with guilt #NorthernProblems
