I think the idea that prices are so much higher in the south is a farce. I went up north and seen so many fancy vans. There is not way they don`t make the money to pay for these things fancy machines. There might be chaps working at lower prices just as there is in the south. I think the folk up north are more generous and definitely more friendly up there. Southern customer are more stuck up and insular.Sorry to say this but its true and its my patch.
