I think he's on the left hand side of the country. I'm on the right hand side.

Midlander.
Born in the Black Country and proud of it, even if we've moved a few miles outside of it now.
Yo con tek the mon aht on the Black Country but yo cor tek the Black Country aht on the mon.
For me, “up North” is Yorkshire, Lancashire, Cumbria and above.
“Down South” is Devon, Cornwall, Hampshire, Essex, Sussex, Surrey, Kent, etc.
And London is a separate country which I have no desire to visit.

For me
Anything below Birmingham is South and anything above Kendal is North.
I've created my own Midlands around Lancashire
