yeah there is bling, in sandbanks we have an area they call the million pound mile, loads of millionaires own homes there,

but poole town is a chav heaven, chavs are everywhere. also think southerners are a little bit up their own backsides, not as friendly as midlanders and northeners. i even found london to be populated with friendlier folk than in dorset.

I can only comment on my own experiences, I recently met a couple from Essex and they were the warmest people I have ever met.. so it kinda threw me because I thought the southerners were un-friendly. My sister in law lived in Surrey for a few years until she came back quite recently and she told me that she was utterly relieved to be back up North.. she says we are a million times friendlier. I love my fellow mancunians and I even admit to liking scousers the Yorkies are just the same, friendly and welcoming people. I have only known a couple of midlanders and they take the award for the most piss take people I ever met! LOL!!
