Ms. Rigby,

Not sure who you’ve been listening to but Cumbria ain’t doing worse than England as a whole.

Of course for many southerners Cumbria is known as two things.

1. Fucking cunts sitting around in tailvans on bridges over M6
2. Westmoreland Farm Shops (yum!)

Oh yeah, lake district blah de blah

Anyway that was satirical in drunk way which would only make sense to tiny number of people. But rest assured Cumbria’s alright, only bad thing I can think of at all locally to it recently was Carlisle floods, and really that isn’t at all related to this area… tis big ( in a british way… small in US way)…

Great in general 🙂

anyway carry on 🙂
