Yes, it's that time of the year again and here is our light-hearted list of all the things that make you a fully-fledged Warringtonian...
1. You were born in Warrington, LANCASHIRE
2. You tell everyone you meet on holiday that you live in between Manchester and Liverpool
3. You find it difficult to give anyone directions around town now that Mr Smith's is no longer there
4. If you’re not moaning about the swing bridges or the traffic on Bridge Foot and Winwick Road, then you’re probably on holiday
5.You have an inherent mistrust of people from Widnes, Wigan or St Helens. And something of a superiority complex over them
6. You like going to Walton Gardens but wish it wasn’t so busy and moan about the car parking charge
7. You say “Walking Day isn’t like it used to be” at least once a year
8. You are happy to remind people that Pete Postlethwaite was from Warrington. You are less inclined to shout about Kerry Katona
9. You still talk about going to birthday parties as a kid in the upstairs at McDonald’s on Bridge Street with Ronald McDonald as the entertainment
10. Despite complaining about the number of pound shops in town, you still shop in them
11. You remember the days when you got change from a quid for a bus ride to town. And the buses came every 10 minutes. And were full.
12. You've spent longer than necessary trying to GET OUT of Ikea
13. There’s only one type of rugby. And it’s rugby league. OK? And it is always our year!
