I love asking UK, especially English, people this question; the answers vary wildly. Once had a Londoner describe the north as “anywhere north of the M25”.
So, lemmings, where is ‘the north’ to you?

I’m a child from a broken home. One parent lived in Yorkshire, the other in the midlands. When they did handover, it was at Donington Park services, the approximate midpoint. Therefore my North begins not far north of Donington Park services.
Wow, that brings back memories, similar locations with one parent in Stockton the other further south and our ‘handover’ was a greasy spoon on the A1(M) called Haven cafe (now a just as shitty KFC or something). I think of mid as Leicester maybe, never really thought about a dividing point.
