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?

If we consider GB as a whole, you're still in the southern half of Great Britain until you get almost up to Carlisle. Manchester, Liverpool, Yorkshire etc. which are all considered "up north" are very much south of this.
