I live south of Manchester and when we moved here 50 odd years ago we lived in Lancashire. About 30 years ago Greater Manchester was formed. Our Bank still refuses to acknowledge the change in our address and to this day insists that we still live in Lancashire and refuses to use Gtr Manchester in correspondence.
I just hope that Lancashire doesn't take offence at being put behind Mr K's barricade due to his prejudice to those of us that live on the friendlier side of the Pennines.
