We spend a year gathering discarded pallets to build a huge tower to burn on the 11th July while we wear Union Jack outfits and drink Carlsberg Special. This is our culture.

Known as the secret kingdom. Lots of castles. A particular one has been in at least 2 blockbuster films. Nice beaches. Getting more and more popular with stay-cationers

Where I am from:

Our pudding and our market are famous (apparently).

Where I now live:

We all wear tweed and wellies
We set off early to avoid the “traffic” (tractors and wildlife )
cheese rolling is a favourite weekend pastime

Hey neighbour. I actually live very close to the cheese-rolling hill, and the locals don't participate, they just complain about the traffic a lot that day 😁
