Strange question I know but what makes you think " I might take the piss at times but I would miss this ..." about where you are from ?

A bit of a weird question but at the minute when the weather is good and I'm driving to work over the Tyne bridge and I look down the Tyne I think "I'd miss this place" and "I'm proud to be a Geordie (for some strange reason)"

For me it's seeing the Tyne bridge and things like this .....



Everytime I walk upto that place I get goosebumps and think I'm glad I'm a Geordie !!

Howay what's your thing ?

 

I live in the Lake District and am 10 mins away from Lake Windermere and then north of that all the countless other lakes, tarns, mountains with snow on (even in summer) ! and the breath taking scenery. I see it every day and take it for granted. It's only when i go away and come back i realise what a truly gorgeous place it is.

Then 10 minutes later, take it for granted again

 

being from Liverpool then it has to be the football club.

there are loads of things that i could say but that is just one of them.

 

Absolutely nothing. I live in a shit part of the world, and am not proud or patriotic to it at all.

The ONLY thing I can think of that I would miss if I didn't live here is : at least it's not a city centre. I'd hate to live in a densly populated shit hole area - at least I have tree's and shit here

But then, if I have my way, I'm moving out to the country, away from all the shit and city life, to more remote and peacefull surroundings

 

Not a geat deal ! Nothing that immediately springs to mind mate !

 

Scotland:
Culture
Scenery
Traditions

Kilmarnock:
Football team
Most of the local community

 

Being from Burnley not a god damn thing

 

The local chinese takeaway - the food's awesome

 

I miss Newcastle


Happy and settled in Surrey now

 

I live in rotherham, Home of the chuckle brothers, Peter elliot the runner, Jonny Quango (my mates dad), Paul shane and william hauge. Dont know if I should be proud or not though

 

I love it where i am. You have Cardiff just down the road, with the best stadium in the country, loads of development going on there and great atmosphere. And then in the other direction you not fare from some of the best roads and scenery in the country

 

cardiff

capital city of wales

waterfront nightlife

capital of dr who

millenium stadium

brains SA

...................need i mention anymore ?


COOL CYMRU....ONCE AGAIN

i'm proud to be welsh !!!!!!!

 

Sounds sad, but I'm proud to come from Middlesbrough.

I'm an Engineer, and this place has a really strong engineering heritage

I's a shithole for sure, but it's my shithole

Neil.

 

i am proud of where i cam from situation wise, not where i lived, as i lived in a shithole , if that makes sense

 

nothing....blackpool is a greasy shit hole...

and dont start with,...oh you got bpool tower,....


thats shit aswel....

 

any time i go somewher other than london it makes me proud to be from there

well, maybe not proud, just relieved

 

im proud of the fact that i can lie about where i come from! lol nah im joking, i like the fact that in bolton weve got the reebok stadium and some pretty funny comedians!

 

proud to be from mansfield.... errr I don't think theres anything good about this place

 

Beeing a true petrol head I think the thing i'd miss most if I went away would be some great twisty roads we have in the Lisbon suburbs.
Come to think of it that's exactly it, because I worked as an international truck driver all over europe for two years and apart from my loving family that was what I truly missed: Me, my car and a wonderful empty road...

 

Of course you miss Newcastle, if you're a Geordie you're bound to miss it !!

You have the great advantage of when you come back up here driving over the tyne bridge and thinking "I'm home" or is that just me when ever I go down South.

 

well im proud to be an essex boy.even if people do take the piss. plus its the home of ford.well used to be. used to live in rayleigh now in colchester but never far from the now sold boreham!!!!!!

 

Deffo not proud, ashamed yes lol...

 

Well i'm from Barnsley and i think it's ace lol...top class footy team , home of Geoffrey Boycott, Darren Gough (dance champion lol), Michael Parkinson, Dicky Bird, Brian Glover ...oh the lists endless lol, nice country side too, and in 2050 you will all be relying on Barnsley for your coal again...

 

The fact that I can walk into my local kebab shop stone cold sober, or pissed out of my skull and they know what I want

 

yeh i cant think of shit from our area either.....oh wait...... nope

 

im from the north east, and theres any number of reasons why im proud, i wouldnt want to be anywhere else in the world, proud to be english too, if you looks at other countrys and what goes on in them, you realise thats englands a good place to be.

 

Nothing, i live in Glasgow. . that sais it all

 

my local and kebab shop

 

I love coming home and seeing all my mates, and to drive about Newcastle, I take Dave round all my fav places in North East LOL

 

Well, im from Sunderland and after the season we have had the only thing I like about the place is the A19 out of here!

 

Liverpool F.C The beatles...AKA LEGENDS

Somewhere I would love to live also. Whilst I can't say Basingstoke makes me proud (where I grew up), I do miss the scenary near my parents place when I am away and the country pubs where chavs dont run riot and spend the evenings looking for fights. Nice cycling or driving down the lanes and looking at the old cottages.

 

Totally agree with ya there mate! Love it!! wouldnt live anywhere else!

(i can almost c my astra next to the van at bottom left corner, i was there then, not at match like, shopping! every1 was taking that pic on their phone!)
