blackNwhites Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I always comment how much greener the grass is from Derbyshire, the grass in Manchester is just sort of yellowish. Derbyshire accent, birds bakery of course, friends and family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Food, family, friends, those summer days spent in the pub gardens by the canal.. That's it. Derbyshire isn't a bad place at all for English standards.. But let's be honest, it's such an ugly country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Vegas Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 it's a beautiful Country and that's me being honest. Derbyshire is also a beautiful County. adios. It's horrific.. It's probably the only country that doesn't have a proper summer or winter.. At least in other countries the winter gets a decent snowfall and it can look beautiful. In England it's usually that slushy grey **** that's everywhere.. Derbyshire during the summer on a clear blue sky can be beautiful I'll giveyou that.. I really enjoyed hanging out with my friends and just driving around in the summer time going to pubs in places like Shardlow.. I also missed my Sunday League football team.. We were based in Long Eaton so going over to the likes of Belper and Swadlincote it was a nice drive. There was another team called East Leek Bantams we played regularly that was always a treck to get to but the surrounding area was nice too.. I have no idea where it is though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cisse Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 We would get along fine. I don't understand a word of your accent and you sure as hell wouldn't understand mine. I would be just nodding my head like a bobble head dummy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggg Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 It is not a problem meeting people but would we all get on or would it be a bit like you said this and you said that. I like to think we could all get on ok. You'd have to have a good memory to remember half the gems/tosh posted on here TBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilkoRam Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 There were a few good pubs too but I don't miss them as much as there's good pubs everywhere. Any night club I would have gone to would be closed now. My old schools have been knocked down. So football and Birds Bakery. My folk are still there but they're moving soon (I may have severe birds withdrawal when that happens) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abertawe_ram Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I was pretty shocked when I found out Birds didn't exist in the rest of the country. There isn't a single thing sold in Birds that isn't bloody delicious! I love having the Peak District so close as well, camping in the Peak District was a big part of growing up for me, I loved it. Nice pubs too, plenty of proper old school pubs as well as some decent modern ones too and all pretty good price-wise. Especially compared to places further south. As more and more of my friends move away from Derby/Derbyshire though I find there isn't a whole lot holding me here so once I've saved up a bit I'm gonna start looking at moving to pastures new. When I do, Derby matches and the few remaining mates here will probably be the things I'll miss most. Certainly won't miss the clubs, Derby is a pretty ***** night out to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
