Why is the North sea called the North sea when it is in the East ?

It's a darn site further north than any sea I can get to easily!!!!!! That makes it the North Sea to me :lol::lol:
 
It may be East of us.. but is it North of the Equator?
 
Where does the north sea stop being the North Sea, is it at the English Channel? Maybe it should be renamed the East Sea.

As a child I lived in Whitley Bay, right on the North Sea and had many a happy time playing in it, I don't even remember that it was cold!
 
Maybe because it refers to oil and gas produced from the oil reservoirs beneath it....I remeber many a wander along Aberdeen beach and spotting a few oil slicks:confused:
 
Well it is further North than the South Seas..................:)
 
Its the same thing as at what point does a fly decide to turn upside down when it is going to land on the ceiling? Mmmmm

Now all you see is Polish people lying on the beach :lol::lol:

:idea: It's because it is nearer to the north pole than the south pole :(
