Happy Lancashire Day

For tomorrow.

On this day in 1295 the first elected representatives from Lancashire were called to Westminster by King Edward I to attend what later became known as "The Model Parliament".

To the people of the city and county palatine of Lancaster

GREETINGS!

Know ye that this day, November 27th in the year of our Lord Two Thousand and Twelve, the 61st year of the reign of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Duke of Lancaster, is.....

Lancashire Day

Know ye also, and rejoice, that by virtue of Her Majesty's County Palatine of Lancaster, the citizens of the Hundreds of Lonsdale, North and South of the Sands, Amounderness, Leyland, Blackburn,
Salford and West Derby are forever entitled to style themselves Lancastrians.



Throughout the County Palatine, from the Furness Fells to the River Mersey, from the Irish Sea to the Pennines, this day shall ever mark the peoples' pleasure in that excellent distinction - true Lancastrians, proud of the Red Rose and loyal to our Sovereign Duke.



GOD BLESS LANCASHIRE

Happy Lancashire Day again fellow Lancastrians.

Nobody is perfect
But if you're from Yorkshire
You're pretty close to Lancashire
Where they are

Warrington used to be in Lancashire. Then they started pissing about.

However,I'm from Lancashire,so happy Lancashire day.

Bolton's not in Lancashire.

Chorley is.

Like Warrington,we've been pushed out.

Cool

Thora Hird was from Morecambe.

All the men from Morecambe seem to be a bit backward.

Morecambe is a bit rough. But you can buy a 6 bedroom, 4 floor, Victorian Terrace for £120k.

Spent a lot of time in Bolton-le-sands camping when I was a kid.

I went in carphone warehouse in morecambe a few years a go. All the sales blokes in there were proper knuckle draggers

20 years ago Morcambe was roaring with holiday goers due to the location, roll on the last few years and it's a right dump.

I have a lot of fond memories from when I was a kid and it's such a shame what it's become now.

We went to pine lake a few times in Carnforth when i was a kid and my mum had a caravan near there too a few years ago.

Did you ever go to Frontierland or remember it on the front in Morcambe?
