The Northern Monkey Survival Guide: How to Hang On to Your Northern Cred in a World Filled with Southern Jessies

by Tim Collins

For too long northerners have faced derision at the hands of southerners, whether it be about the northern climate, their thriftiness, or gloomy outlook, but all this is about to change. Now is the time for northerners to rise up as one and growl, ‘I’m from t’North and I’m proud!’ After all, where would southerners be today without the hallowed Yorkshire pudding, or stainless steel, open-cast mines or Peter Kay? The Northern Monkey Survival Guide is a collection of reasons to love the orth, together with some useful survival tips for anyone who dares to venture south of Birmingham. Including:

• A north–south currency conversion guide – what a cheese and onion buttie is called and costs

• The Northern Monkey hall of fame – the greatest northerners in history

• Places to avoid in the ‘Beautful South’

The Northern Monkey Survival Guide is a celebration of the northern outlook on life and the perfect stocking-filler for any northerner this Christmas!
