The foundation of English society. The counter part to the Southern Fairy. Draught beer is a popular tipple of the Northern Monkey as opposed to the copious amounts of drugs consumed by the Southern Fairy. Up front and truthful the Northern Monkey has an honest opinion and also has an impecable sense of humour compared to the non-existent sense of humour of the Southern Fairy. e.g. Peter Kay, Vic Reeves, etc.

The Northern Monkey also happens to be very articulate compared to the Southern Fairy using reasonable English words instead of the general expletive used by the Southerner. e.g. C**t, F**k, etc.
The northern monkey is the cornerstone of English society.

Get the Northern monkey mug.
weird sort from up norf. although from england, they don't speak the language. they hate margaret thatcher and love gravy. most of them have never made it out of the town they were born in and are very proud of living in the arsehole of england.

when not down t'mine, the northern monkey likes to sit on urban dictionary giving thumbs down to 'northern monkey' definitions and thumbs up to 'southern fairy' ones.

derogatory nickname for a person of northern extraction, usually coined by a SAVNA or a SOUTHERN SOFTY who can't live up to the fact that the north has a better standard of person.

A gentleman who talks about how much he likes gravy then proceeds to bathe in gravy and then drink it, keeps pigeons, ferrets and t'wife in shed in t'garden. Eats toast with oxo cubes sprinkled on top, comes to the pub with £1.40 and manages to get drunk and spill 4 pints of tetleys down his tweeds.
A northern monkey is identifiable in the pub as usually can be heard asking "can I have a light f'mi fag"
