Musket me old love, don't take this too hard but that lot came second.

Now, as to Lancashire's being God's county it's really quite simple.

The established church in this beautiful county is the Church Of England and the Monarch, at present Elizabeth the First is the head of the church and defender of the faith. Thus she is God's representative in our glorious nation.

This is the important bit........... do you know who the Duke of Lancaster is ............... no, let me enlighten you

it's the Queen.

So the Queen is both the Duke of Lancaster AND God's representative in the jewel set in an azure sea.

Thus God's representative is the Duke of Lancaster and so God must have chosen Lancashire as his special county.

Simple.


One final thing, me being a Mancunian and all that I thought Sheffield Wednesday was a Bank Holiday :-)
