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
