The North Midlands is a loosely defined area of England. It is typically held to include the counties of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, and in some definitions also covers southern Cheshire, parts of Lincolnshire and Staffordshire.
A North Midlands region was first defined for the 1881 UK census. It was defined as the entirety of Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire and Rutland. A new definition of the region appeared in 1939, for various government statistical purposes: Derbyshire without High Peak, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Rutland and the Soke of Peterborough. In 1942, High Peak was added, but it was removed again in 1946. In 1962, it was merged into a new Midlands statistical region.
The North Midlands has remained in use as an informal term for part of the area, covering South Yorkshire, North Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire, even though South Yorkshire never formed part of the statistical region. For example, in the 1960s, Sheffield was described in an official publication as "the vigorous shopping and cultural centre of the North Midlands".

"Mind the gap" is an audible or visual warning phrase issued to rail passengers in the UK (and elsewhere) to take caution while crossing the horizontal, and in some cases vertical, spatial gap between the train door and the station platform.
The phrase was first introduced in 1969 on the London Underground in the United Kingdom. The phrase is also associated with souvenir T-shirts that Transport for London sells, featuring the warning printed over the network's roundel logo.
The phrase "Mind the gap" was coined in around 1968 for a planned automated announcement, after it had become impractical for drivers and station attendants to warn passengers. London Underground chose digital recording using solid state equipment with no moving parts. As data storage capacity was expensive, the phrase had to be short. A concise warning was also easier to paint onto the platform.
The equipment was supplied by AEG Telefunken. According to the Independent on Sunday, sound engineer Peter Lodge, who owned Redan Recorders in Bayswater, working with a Scottish Telefunken engineer, recorded an actor reading "Mind the gap" and "Stand clear of the doors please", but the actor insisted on royalties and the phrases had to be re-recorded. Lodge read the phrases to line up the recording equipment for level and those were used.

So here's Mind The Gap: The Cypher. Three Midlands MCs – Kamakaze, Eyez and Mez – go head to head with three London MCs – Dave, Jammz and AJ Tracey. Last month, a host of MCs swung by London's Studios to pool their abilities for Mind The Gap – a collaborative mixtape shining a light on the best MCs and producers from north of the Watford Gap. It got us to thinking: with all this talent coming out of the regions, are the Midlands ready to take on London on their own soil? grim uk grime uk rap uk hip hop rap hip hop freestyle grime freestyle dave santandave aj tracey tracey kamakaze mez eyez jammz dave grime dave song dave freestyle sbtv link up tv aj tracey freestyle aj tracey grime Dave AJ Tracey Kamakaze Mez Eyex Jammz london grime london v midlands cypher grime cypher red bull cypher ...

When travelling from the UK to North America it is best to have your vaccination at least eight weeks before travelling. This is not always possible but in any event you should make sure that your existing vaccinations for the UK are up to date, such as Polio and Tetanus. If they're not, you should arrange booster jabs. Some states in the USA have specific regulations for school and college pupils so it is wise to check in advance of your trip. You are not required to produce a vaccine certificate when visiting North America. If travelling to Greenland, courses or boosters usually advised are tetanus and hepatitis A. In Mexico typhoid and rabies are advised and if travelling to southern parts of Mexico precautions should be taken against Malaria. For more information co...

Welcome to Northern Midlands. Northern Midlands is one of the largest and most diverse municipalities in Tasmania. It covers an area of 5,130 km , extending from Liffey Bluff in the west to Mount St John in the east (150kms) and from Relbia in the north to Tooms Lake in the south (95kms). The landscape changes from mountainous country on its eastern and western boundaries to extensive grazing lands renowned for fine wool production, the rich agricultural river flats of the Esk, Lake and Macquarie Rivers; historic towns and villages; and from small businesses to multi-million dollar enterprises. The population of approximately 12,500 is expected to increase by 1,000 over the next five years as development continues to occur in and around the towns of Longford, Perth and Evandale.
This segment of our summer boat cruise takes us from Midland, Ontario on Georgian Bay - leaving the Town Docks and passing over to Bayport Yachting Centre. Leaving Bayport, we traveled northward through Honey Harbour and into the heart of the beautiful Thirty Thousand Islands region. Our ultimate destination for the day (and subsequent three nights) was the 'world famous' Henry's Fish Restaurant. Henry's is a simple fish and chips restaurant, stuck on an island in an area known as Sans Souci, which translates to 'without cares'. As it is situated on an island, access is only by way of boat or float plane - both which are happy to make the trip to this special place. Trying to capture the awesome beauty of this area is challenging, as one must see it first hand to really 'get it'. That ...
