What is a Geordie?
As Douglas Adams almost said, ‘Far
away in the uncharted backwaters of the once unfashionable
North-East of England lies an often-unregarded civilisation.
Orbiting this at a distance of a few hundred miles is the rest of
the British Isles. The life forms inhabiting this area are often
thought of as primitive as they still think wearing warm clothing is
a pretty sissy thing to do.’
