    Not just us, southerners don't seem to like each other.

    I was down in That London a few years ago, to pick up a used LP12. I was driving along a busy main road, the traffic was moving slowly. I saw a car trying to emerge from a side road, so I slowed and indicated that I was letting him out. He looked at me like I was from another planet, and stayed put. Considerate driving was clearly an alien concept.

    Southerners think of us as 'pig-ignorant', but this isn't entirely accurate. What we actually are is 'pig-ignoring', which is not the same thing
