You know you’re uptown when:
1. You complain about the quads and off roaders on the streets of Norbrook on the weekend- They are so annoying!
2. You shop most definitely at Loshusan Supermarket or in Manor Park (One of the centres of UPT Life)
3. You vacation in Trinidad during the carnival season.
4. Your parents speak a sort of “demi-patawah/patois”. They speak with a ‘Motty Perkins accent’.
5. You go to Blow by Blow to get your hair done, as it is way too long to wait at another hairdresser.
6. You enjoy cocktail parties at the Regency.
7. You often retreat to the Strawberry Hill Hotel on the weekend for brunch.

25. You say things like, "Jamaica is so pop dung" and constantly make comparisons to other places you visited on vacation.
26. You’re distraught about the recent police killings of African Americans in the United States, but are unconcerned about similar matters in Denham Town. Where is Denham town anyway?
27. You would never be caught dead on the JUTC. Where is the nearest bus stop ?
28. The only taxis you know are from the On-Time taxi service.
29. Half Way Tree is the furthest 'south' you’ve been.
