To the west, a local male is called a Kentish Man; to the east, he is a Man of Kent. The difference originates from the fact that the Saxons settled in the west of the county, and the Angles in the east. I'm an imposter I'm afraid - moved from the West Country a few years ago. |

It's fun here at POE and it's also great being part of a mad lot. Mick, do you live in Kent, and if so, are you a Kentish man or a man of Kent?
