When someone is in a bad mood, I say they are "Mardy". Recently I found out that's not a word that's used all around England. I have been told, even by people who live 15 minutes away from me that I speak poshly.
I think I can tell where someone is from by their accent but not by their clothes or the way they spend their money.
I believe that people from rural and urban areas are slightly different in the way they have been brought up, but that doesn't mean that they are completely different in their personalities. In some people, you can tell where they grew up, some you can't. It doesn't define you as a person.
In the past, you could definitely tell between rural and urban backgrounds as they were so much more different years ago, now there are some aspects that are the same.
Essex- Stupid, dumb, silly, no education, rich, fake tan
Have a think about - and post- some ideas about specific ideas/stereotypes we have e.g. characters from Liverpool, Essex, Norfolk, Bristol
