Nothing showed up for Louth, Gloucester linked to America Gloucester and Grimsby came up with some Nitrus Oxide injection system stuff o.0 But then I remembered I've got this group on Facebook "You know you're from Lincolnshire when"

- You never come across any type of hill (except Steep Hill in Lincoln) anywhere.
Steep Hill is Steep, but I live near the Lincolnshire Wolds, which are pretty hilly

- You are related to, or know someone related to a farmer.
Grandfather on Dads side, dads cousins and shit loads of friends are or have farmer family

- You call Potatoes 'Tates'.
Nowt beats tates

- You call others 'Duck' or 'Duckie'.
Don't personally, but have been called it *a lot*, also the awful "Darl"

- Despite being the second largest county in the Country, it has one city (Lincoln)

- Whenever you talk to anyone from a different town in the county, you argue about which of your towns have the most inbreds, but agree on the fact that Boston has the most.
Louth, by far

- Everywhere you look are fields.
and I LOVE it

- unless you live near Lincoln, you live near nothing.
Not true! I live near fields!

- People not from the county don't really know where it is.
y'know the lump that is Yorkshire? And then the big bump that's Norfolk? Yeah we're between the two of them

- You're more likely to have been to Southampton than to have been to Scunthorpe.
I have been to Scunthorpe many a time. Finn's from there actually. Never been to Southampton though yet

- Tractors completely clog up the roads
Lord yes. There are very few tractors here in Glos. This is very weird

- You know the real definition of the word 'dyke'
A small ditch at the side of the road, often on both sides normally filled with teenage boy racers on a Sunday morning

- You go to Butlins on holiday
NO! I visit Skeg once a year and that's more than enough! I've never set foot in Butlins and never plan too!
