This is something our Yorkshire friends might understand. Essex is actually two counties, like your Ridings. North Essex is a classy place that contains Englands oldest town, oysters, Tiptree jam and the landscapes that inspired John Constable. Divided from us by the River Crouch is Sarf Essex, which is full of loose women, dodgy geezers, burnt-out XR3i's, caravans and whelk stalls.
And on Saturday, we are declaring independence from the latter.
