What a traitor! There's nowt wrong with Sunderland, at all.
There's a big difference between Mackem and Geordie accents, though most non-locals never know the difference and understandably just think "Geordie" when they hear a North-East accent.
i love the way you always manage to say it how it is
I never did get that, what is so wrong with Canada!?
God yes.
When I was in Canada one person I was talking to got so wound up about once being asked if they were American!
Thats awfully random.
But I've never been considered Canadian. Nor has anybody I know. Briggis right though, Canadians hate to be called American and we hate Canada, eh (and thats cuz Canadians are weird )
Call a Mackem a Geordie and they'll nut you.
You might get away with calling a Sandancer a Geordie, but only if you're lucky.
I've worked in both cities, there is a clear difference.
Durham is neither, Durham's too posh to be.
I know where Consett is...you can hear the banjos start to twang as soon as you get past Rowlands Gill.
Well that girl was from South Sheilds!!! She prefrerred Newcastle though.
