Haha, not quite lass.
I'm cautiously friendly to the Scots, i really hate the negative stuff that can spew from the mouths of them up there about the 'English' (huge term that covers alot of different people, we all know) because it can hurt, afterall i am born and raised on this side of the line.
But what is undeniable is that this part of the world shares much more incommon with Lowlands Scots than the rest of Northern England, if you can even call it the north? more like midlands to me.. besides that the best crack is with the Scots I've met on holiday, besides that we share dialect in which other parts of England don't.
When i was on holiday three years back i shouted to a mate while he was downing a pint (eeeh the daft things bairns get up tee eh?) "Dee it for England son!", anyway because of that we got cracking with some Scottish lads who were all class and we have even kept in touch to this day, we dont talk like most English, yet we are English. It's confusing for Americans when i speak to them on the phone, i will say that, haha.
