Definder - what does the word mean?

What is Leicestershire?

The county that believes it is the best in all of England, and insists on this on all its road signs. Full of colourful and cultural hotspots like the run-down bus station in Coalville, the Woodlands Nursery in Stapleton, the Britannia Shopping Centre in Hinckley, the toilets in Cafe Nero at the Highcross in Leicester, and so on.

The people who live there, known locally as "chisits", speak in a strange dialect that include expressions such as "me duck", "me sen" and "ayumashed".

Many there like to insist that Leicestershire is its own independent socialist republic, but since everybody there is as thick as a brick nobody will listen to them. If you want more action, go to nearby Warwickshire.

"Leicestershire is the best county in England, me duck!"
"Sure thing mate, sure thing..."
