Aye, is that common over there?

Can't imagine Lancaster being allowed to be in both Lancashire and Yorkshire! :)

you have Memphis in Tennessee, then just over the Mississippi river in Arkansas you have West Memphis

The little tinker deleted the tweet 

You'd think he had people around him helping out or summert.

He only runs the place, no reason he should have any understanding of its Geography.

Wait till his local team the Redskins win

I noticed in most of the States are boundaries of dead straight lines, whereas we use rivers or estuaries to determine ours.

There's a place where New Mexico, Utah, Colorado and Arizona meet so you can stand in 4 states at once.

Trump's head would explode if he knew.

It always struck me as odd that the Dutch live in the Netherlands and call it Holland.

No, they live in the Netherlands and call it The Netherlands. 

It's made up of 12 provinces of which Holland is two. (North and South Holland) which contain Amsterdam (North) and Rotterdam (South) and are the most populated provinces; probably hence the whole country often gets refered to as Holland.

They live in the Netherlands and refer to it, more so these days, as the Netherlands.  However as late as the 1990s the national football team had 'Holland' in large letters under the badge and the Dutch often referred to the whole nation as Holland.

Wikipedia explains where 'Dutch' comes from. Still quirky though

No cant think of another big city that straddles two states. Not sure how its happened but only small part in Kansas like say Little Lever being in one county and rest of Bolton in another :lol:

Thankfully Blackshaw brook provides a sort of boundary. Tell the locals there are goblins and trolls under the bridges and it keeps them in check...
