I'm a Geordie and most people think, correctly, that we're friendly. However when I moved to Lancashire the first conversation I had with a neighbour was 'people hate geordies round here cos they stole our lads jobs at the Power Station' and 'They put my sons lunch box on a pole so he couldn't get his lunch' Doh!! Their sons couldn't do the jobs and her son was in his 30s!! get a life! Also I was told by one guy when I worked in a pub that all Geordies just want to drink and fight!!
Now I live in Cumbria and haven't a clue what people think of either me or the Cumbrians and I don't care, I like them!

Great Yarmouth Norfolk and I don't care what other people think but I do know that a recent study showed that people in Norfolk live longer than the rest of the country.

Southampton! Not really sure about what others think of us down here. Except the rivalry thing with Portsmouth, but that's based on a football thing I think.
