The best english county (and apparently some shit place in america, but dont let that
put you off from visiting somerset friends from abroad). Gave the world cider, the flushing toilet, cheddar cheese (the best kind of cheese bar none! If its from somerset and not some knock off stuff anyway) and the combine harvester!
People struggle to understand the somerset
people due to their thick accents except
people from somerset and
people from a small west indian island who, by coincidence, have the same accent). There is a large celtic influence in somerset from Wales and Cornwall hence why the area (or westcountry, including
devon/cornwall) is a lot more like Wales than the rest of England. However, unfortunately, somerset is close to Bristol, who share our accent, tarring the reputation of our great county.
It is home of the world renowned glastonbury music festival which attracts hundreds of thousands of
music lovers to some blokes field who produces milk for the rest of the year. Although this is not actually in Glastonbury, rather Worthy farm in Pilton, Glastonbury is a hippy town with a big hill and some stupid half castle that King
Arthur supposedly lived in. Yawn.
