Two giants are walking across the Enland in thick fog. They get a bit lost so one giant says "Don't worry I'll find out where we are". He bends down and feels around before saying "We're in the South, I can feel the Isle of Wight". After they had been walking for a while, he bends down to find out where they are. He says "We're in London, I can feel Nelson's column". After another 10 minutes, he says "I'll just check to see where we are", a few seconds later he says "We're in Leeds". The other giant asks how he knows that.
The first giant says "Because someone has just nicked my watch"
EDIT: By the way statistically the north has more crime than the south. Mainly due it having more larger cities rather than just being in the North.

Quote:People from the North are very proud of their underachievement. You see these old fellas in the pub going: 'I've had a great life, me. Gone nowhere. Done feck all. Aye.'

You know it's better up north when the ruling monarch has indicated that she will ne residing in the Ribble Valley once her shift has finished. That's a fact boys so what does that say about the south? When Big Liz moves north I hope you southern tarts stop banging on about how great the it is to pay £5000000 for a one bedroom cellar in Islington. Club Exped trailer
