We don't have a constitution, just a half-assed collection of laws from 1704 onwards and reams and reams of court cases and customs. It's much safer.

At least about those parts of it outside the borders of Northants
And most of the bits inside Northants, too

It used to be a nice county until my brother moved there.

until they built Kettering. And Corby. And then moved 30,000 unemployed Glaswegians to Corby and then took away their jobs. For a joke! Hahaha!
On the plus side, Corby's one of the only places in England you can go to a supermarket and find the shelves filled with walls of Irn Bru, like supermarkets should be.
Where did your brother move to?

Now he lives somewhere else, but still close to Southfields. Kingsthorpe possibly, or maybe somewhere else.
I went to a cup final last time I was up there, Corby Rangers were playing. It was strange being in the middle of Northampton and being surrounded by so many weegies.

When I'm back in Northants I do half my shopping there since it's only a few miles up the road. It's the only place where you can guarantee you won't get a weird look when you hand over a Clydesdale note.
Kingsthorpe's alright so far as I've ever known. A bit dull but nice enough. Pity it's in Northampton, which is to be totally fair to it, a dump. The only Southfields I know is the girl's school in Kettering that we all fantasised about when we were growing up.

It is however a good place to go out and get smashed :D

a bit far to go when you're young and have no money when there's enough shit clubs in kettering (two, both *really* shit)

well, just outside, anyway. due to brookside, hollyoaks and a shithole called kirkby, the rest of the country sees liverpool as a pikey-infested shitbox of a place, where you'll be mugged and possibly murdered within 5 minutes of entering the city limits. i'm seen by most "true" scousers as posh, for some bizarre reason, but i've never felt threatened here.

The few times I've been there I've never felt threatened either. I was actually born just over the water in Clatterbridge but we moved away when I was one so I don't remember any of it.

but if anyone's being interviewed for anything on t.v, they always choose some no-good smackheaded scally, thus perpetuating the myth that we're all scum.
