I totally agree. Ive always learned not to take myself seriously. Theres far more important things to worry about than getting riled up over a few friendly jibes over the internet, for goodness sake.
When I used to holiday in Corfu in the mid 1990s there was always a large contingent of people from the north notably from places like Sheffield, Birmingham and Manchester. Me and my mates (all southerners) used to meet up and play them at pool in the bars. I used to say to them theyre only here because of the cheap flights tickets! Then they used to say how lightweight we are at drinking (which we were). Then we'd wind each other up over the football. It was all friendly banter and there certainly wasnt a whiff of nastiness.
But the fact remains there is a divide between north and south as clearly evident at the general election. Its been like that for centuries.
So my message to TiBB members getting all riled up over my comments at those living in the north: Lighten up!
