Review
"an ideal stocking filler for anyone moving south or, for that matter, newcomers to the north... would bring a smile to anyone's lips" --Manchester Evening News, 25 Sept 2010
"Packed with tongue-in-cheek observations and stereotypes about the South as well as the North, it covers everything from fashion and football to music. There's a guide to understanding slang such as `ow do', `howay' and a `Middlesbrough Toothbrush' (chewing gum), and helpful hints for Southerners thinking of venturing North of the M25 (`don't ask for a lager top' being one of them)." --The Northern Echo, Oct 2010

Product Description
A helpful companion to all those beleaguered northerners forced to cope in a poncey southern-centric world, "The Northern Monkey Survival Guide" is a collection of reasons to love the North, together with some useful survival tips for anyone who dares to venture south of Birmingham. It includes: a north-south currency conversion guide - what a cheese and onion buttie is called and what it costs; the Northern Monkey hall of fame - the greatest northerners in history; and, places to avoid in the 'Beautiful South'. "The Northern Monkey Survival Guide" is a celebration of the northern outlook on life!

I bought this book as a stocking filler for a 'northern monkey' friend of mine. It went down really well. It takes the Mick out of us southerners so think it would go down well with most northerners.
