24 Problems Only People From Cheshire Will Understand

2. Having To Explain That You Don€™t Come From €˜That Bit Of Cheshire€™...

You know where it is. €˜That bit of Cheshire€™ is the bit of Cheshire everyone who€™s not from Cheshire thinks of when they think of Cheshire (if, indeed, they ever think of Cheshire). Range Rovers, footballers, WAGs, palatial mansions just outside Knutsford, and the kind of bourgeois pseudo-sophistication best summed up by the words €œSunday Times Wine Club€. That bit of Cheshire exists, obviously, but far more of us are from the bit of Cheshire with Stanlow oil refinery, Connah€™s Quay power station, and the Brunner Mond and Ineos chemical factories in it. Our bit of Cheshire smells weird all the time: it's a weird cross between multiple pesticides, hot fat, sulphur, and well-matured mulch. Mmmmm, the warm stench of home.
