OP here
Ashamed to say this is all I can get
I'm not certain on the home counties, I think Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire might be the wrong way round?
Why don't the English know their counties?
>London
Not a county, but Greater London is
>Suffix
It's spelled "Sussex", and there's two of them - West Sussex and East Sussex
>Winchester
That's a city in Hampshire
>Gloucester
That's a city, but yes Gloucestershire is the county
There's two Sussexes, East and West
Middlesex doesn't exist anymore, it's within Greater London now
Also Yorkshire is divided into four - North, South, East and West
Sussex is East and West
Same as what I said about about Yorkshire - there's four Yorkshires
There's four Yorkshires for each compass point
Two Sussexes too

I don't know, I think it's sad that British schools don't teach the counties anymore
I know all 50 states off by heart, I can name them all on a map in under two minutes
Yet I don't know all the counties. I know most of them but there's a few I don't.
That's why I'm trying get better and learn them all.
none
Glue-chester-shy-err
Chess-shy-err
They're not pronounced like that
"Gloss-ter-sheer"
"Chesh-eer"
That's how it should be

I will do the ceremonial counties without cheating, using the sporcle quiz:
sporcle.com
I got 42/48, d'oh! I had previously known them all.
I missed: Durham, Derbyshire, Leicestershire (that damn-cheese one!), Northamptonshire, Hampshire, Bedfordshire.
>not knowing Bristol
>missing the City
...nigga.
I kept missing Wiltshire but then I realized that Stonehenge is there. Now I have something "real" to connect the place with, so I don't forget it anymore. :^D
Can one of you bingy-bongs explain why the modern government has more county-thingies than the "real" counties, and why the "real" counties are called the "ceremonial" counties?
It's autistic af
...
>Also Yorkshire is divided into four - North, South, East and West
West is best.
Good idea
I got 44 (I had already looked up some of those I missed here )
Yeah I'm stupid, now I need to learn Shropshire and Staffordshire (I already knew Leicestershire, no idea how I forgot that in pic related)
Sussex
Wessex
Sussex
Devon
Cornwall
Lancaster
London ?
Norfolk
Suffolk
Northumbrialand
Kent
>L O N D O N
>Westex
>Eastex
>Scotland
>Glasgow
>Toast Sandwich
>Beans on Toast
How'd I do?
Came here to post this.
There are two Sussexes
Wessex doesn't exist (it did many years ago)
Sussex is two counties - west and east
Lancaster is a town, Lancashire is the county
It's Greater London (and the City of London too)
There's Northumberland and Cumbria, but not "Northumbrialand"
Westex doesn't exist
Neither does Eastex
Scotland is a country
Glasgow is a city
Toast Sandwich is a Wikipedia article, I don't even believe that it's a real thing because I never heard of it before Sup Forums
Beans on Toast is a delicious meal handed to us by the gods. It's fucking delicious.
Cornish people are stuck up their own arses for thinking they're another "country"
I guess they're not all bad though, Cornwall is great for holidays and surfing, and of course they have Cornish pasties which are fucking DELISH
Pic related, cornish pasty
If you don't know what it is, it's beef, onion, potato, swede, maybe some other stuff but those are the main things, stuffed inside crispy pastry
Fucking delicious
it's the wrong way round
