So who's from Britain that I haven't talked to yet? I'm from the Far south east, but I have a stop point in Colchester, Essex i can crash so i have like 2 points to meet from irl in the rare eventuality I ever met a soul from this site (I almost spelt site as sight just then lol)
Scary? The north is lovely what i've seen of it, in fact when i went to Whitby for a Mangaka getaway with my illustrator friend the local pub folk were scared of my stories of down south xD
There this stereotype that the north of England is some god forsaken place, but as you mentioned a lot of people who come from the south are largely surprised how nice it is. The fact we are also always the least happy about government decisions and do stuff to piss them off massively all the time.
We're in St Annes now and about to move to Leeds (We being me and Sherflow)
