Almost every boundary marker sign that you come across seems to triumphantly announce, with pride, the place that you are about to enter.
From "Welcome to Blackburn with Darwen, The Proud Home of Blackburn Rovers FC" to "Welcome to Lancashire, The Historic County Palatine".
Even "Rotherham, Birthplace of the Chuckle Brothers" seems to be able to find something to say about itself.
However, the East Riding of Yorkshire appears to be almost apologetic for its existence. A boundary marker that could almost be a traffic cone and which is hidden in the hedgerows.
"East Yorkshire. Hope You Don't Mind Too Much".
