Ipswich , ,,, but isnt that in the southern hemisphere ?
As a well travelled person who has studied this country may I offer the following?
I was in Newcastle some years back and noticed that after some had imbibed they would look at each other and one would say "Car park!" and they would go outside for a private discussion. On return they would appear dishevelled with arms round each other and continue to buy each other copious amounts of alcohol. This appears to be some form of male bonding which you may wish to try with your partner's father. They also referred to an agency called "Hadawayan'shite" when I asked if their wounds needed dressing.
I do hope this is of some help.
have a look at this web sie it has a tranlator feature built in so you can even speak to the in laws
dont be put off by the crap weather, the funny accents, the grim delapidated mining towns which are full of smackheads, the unemployment or the fact that it smells. apart from that its lovely. which is why i moved to portsmouth after living in yorkshire all my life. the funny thing is portsmouth is just the same except its by the sea...should have read the brochure properly.......
you'll love it up there we love northerners
we lived half way up there in derby
and from experience can say they really are friendly bunch
as for the lingo all you need is
y yer bugger man
as for the out-laws.....stay pissed at all times
Aye your a lucky chap to be able to escape the rats and smells of the south. At least you will get fresh air in the North and be able to drink tap water that has not passed through humans 15 times before. You will also be able to taste a northern delecacy of meat and 2 veg rather than some canope that you cant see on the plate. If you bring your binoculars with you you might be able to squeeze a game in with Manchester United with all the other tourist. Piece of advice for Newcastle .... Make sure you lock and double lock your car and still dont expect to see it in the morning.
