This week Prime Minister Theresa May unveiled her hard Brexit plans and it was a harsh reminder that the future is clouded and uncertain.
So let's try and shake off some of that worry and focus on the good things we do as a country. What makes us special and unique.
To illustrate this, a Redditor has posted a map by Sykes Cottages showing each UK county, and what it’s best at.
Not only is it interesting, but it’s also a celebration of harmless British patriotism; the kind that doesn’t risk a recession, or embolden Nigel Farage.
Here are some of the highlights:
Merseyside: Taxis
Staffordshire: Marmite
Rutland: No McDonalds
Mid Glamorgan: Largest prison escape attempt
Lancashire: Chippies
Oxfordshire: Prime ministers
DevonDevon: Milk
