Yet another ray of common sense from Mr Cringe. Shame about his taste in pullovers:-P

Maybe it is a North/South divide thing? Not in the strict sense - I think people either side of the Watford Gap (Mythical Gnomish creation of how the country is divided) are just the same. Maybe, just maybe, the class structure is taking longer to wear down in the Industrial heartlands? I can go in most of my local pubs and get the same message that SC and SO'P are reporting. I went through it myself. From my careers teacher at the age of 15 - "University? Bloody university? I only do factories..." Is it the same sarf of Dudley? Have some people never experienced it or are the rose coloured glasses of a stronger tint in some parts? I dunno. It's all I can think of to explain it!
