Hi there.

Anyone out there living in Lancashire? I'm thinking of having my MC be from Lancashire, and maybe having a bit of a prejudice against people from Yorkshire. Not being from Lancashire myself ... to what extent does that still go on? How seriously would it be taken?

As someone who lives in Lancashire & works in Yorkshire - I'd say there was very little. OK, there is the occasional good natured jibe - but nothing more.

Of course both sides are still united in the loathing of "Southern Jessies"...
;-)

Even then, that is usually confined to people from London and the so-called "home counties" (a despicable name - since it implies that all other counties are not part of the English "homeland").

I agree with Frogfall, there's not much. And again it's more predujice towards the Southerners. I remember my mum having an argument with a man in a forest about this. Twas very odd.

Smile and remember to be happy

I also agree, from my experience it's non-existant, Lancashire and Yorkshire seem to get on well! I'm a Lancashire lass! :)
