The furthest north I've lived in the UK is Oakham, in Rutland. I've lived in Moscow, which is on about the same latitude as Edinburgh, but in Russian terms that isn't north at all.

Ask for a black and tan here, you'll be given a dog.

Probably best not be asking for a Black and Tan if you holiday in Ireland either….

None of this revoltingness can hold a candle to loco moco.

white rice, topped with a hamburger patty, a sunny-side up fried egg, and finally topped with brown gravy.

I just checked the map of Europe...
2 observations: the UK is still on it.
The North of the Netherlands is about as far North as I am in the UK...
Herefordshire/South Wales borders... Southerner then, which matches the lack of gravy in my life nicely.
