Snobs who look down on the North because we don't have Waitrose forget to mention that we have Booths instead, which is a far superior supermarket.

@anon_opin I think anyone not shopping at Fortnum's is a fearful oik!

@anon_opin Booths is only in the North West.

@rivets @anon_opin TIL Yorkshire is 'North West'.

@astromech @anon_opin Well, Yorkshire is only barely the North and some of it is quite West :-) Where's there a Booths?

@rivets @anon_opin Ilkley.

@anon_opin yeah, but Booths makes Waitrose look affordable 😳

@[email protected] the north does in fact have Waitrose.

@Grey @anon_opin There's definitely a Waitrose in Wilmslow. Is that North?

@[email protected] @[email protected] it's absolutely in't north.

@Grey @anon_opin Feels pretty north to me. 😂

@[email protected] @[email protected] it's very much north, I've just realised my very Yorkshire term "in't" might be misconstrued as "is not." I usually say it as a shorter version of "in the", so yes, Cheshire is very northern.

@Grey @anon_opin ha! I assumed that you were saying Wilmslow didn't count. Perhaps because it also has an Aston Martin showroom. 😂

@[email protected] @[email protected] does it? Tbh I have never been in one of those, but it's definitely POSH.

@Grey @anon_opin Oh, me neither. I've walked past it. Doubt they'd let me in, though. 😁
