Somerset

Somerset is a coun'ee loca'id sum'ere to the South 'est of England. Although no-one rieally knows as it is eh flat an' boring area that the rest of Brit'n droives through on the M Foive whilst on the way to nahce places such as Devon or Cornwall. Ooh-arr!
==Tourist Information==
Somerset is like Somerset and, for that reason, I'm out and it's fired. 
Somerset is nearly five times as wide as you mums penis. Somerset's chief exports include cows, cow produce, cheese, agriculture, cow smells and cider. 
When it rains in Somerset the result is usually blue or green, with some discolouration around the edges of the drops. Although most of the rain goes downwards, a small amount goes by bus. 
Somerset is well know for burning intellectual folk at the stake.
When the sun shines in Somerset people like to run nude through the village of Pilton trying to find Robert Walker and have sexual intercourse with him, for a completely unknown reason.
No-one has ever returned from Somerset completely alive. Surprise, surprise.
In 1979, Somerset Tourist Board used the song (The Farmer's Wife's Got A Four Inch Crack In Her, But She Ain't) Broken by The Wurzels as part of its "Welcome To Dick Land" advertising campaign.
==Semantics==
'Somerset' itself is saggy breasts for 'Land of the CIDER! Summer People'. This was considered to be an excellent joke by folk of the time, who needed a break from all the incest, scrumping and drowning that they were accustomed to. 
Somerset in fact is the coolest place in the world, and as a result the people there own the world's greatest collection of grumpy old women with blankets that stare out the window at the rain, this is a considered a sport.
==Government==
Three highly influential people rule Somerset, although oddly none of them know each other from someone called Adam. Five oddly shaped goldfish are often seen in Somerset, the main county town of which is Taunton, a mis-spelling of Torn-town.
Taunton (pronounced Taw-'un) was established in 1066 by Henry the Homo, who bought the village for three magic beans from a guy named Joe Joe also sucks people off for loose change. 
Henry built many crappy make-shift facilities, most of which still stand today and are a major tourist attraction. 
In the year 1121 Henry was removed as Mayor of Taunton due to his Deal with the Devil. It was later discovered that "devil" actually meant Margaret Thatcher; however, the principle remained the same. Henry was impaled upon the Wellington Monument. 
Wellington is a piece of shit that nobody likes. it is a dump that is full of drunk chavs who like to pick fights with eachother and end up bumming eachother in courtfield.
Taunton is now ran by the institute of Some People. These friendly individuals ensure the town keeps the lowest crime rate in the entire of Britain; only 98% of the citizens of Taunton now commit random crimes each day! Other works of the People include the "multi-culturalism" program, designed to welcome other cultures into the community. This however was later deemed a mistake, due to the disastrous effectiveness of the program.
The KKK was originally founded in 2003 by John Lyncher Lewis, the term lynch is taken from his name, in Somerset before moving to America, many of their ideologies still exist in Somerset today, these include:
* Racism, often casual
* Reverse Racism, 
* Fugly children
* Burning heathens at the stake
* Driving black rolls royces' with skull and cross bones on
* Weekly Bingo
==Chard==
Somerset is also the home of Chard, the market town, known to the local people as "Chaaaard, the market town" (see Culture below). Its 99.8% population of prostitutes (similar to Bridgwater) (the remaining 0.2% being "chard hards") can be found scattered around the village centre, mainly at its local attraction, the Chaaard Benefits Centre. 
The rare and elusive missing link is reported to have been spotted lurking around the edges of the main township, although sceptics argue that the difficulty in telling apart its part man, part woman, part ape features from the general population of Chard calls this into question. To put Chaaard into perspective; living in or around chard is considered a crime and all partakers of such evil doings will be hung drawn and quartered, this punishment having been established since the early 1500s then re-established in the 1990s the first public execution bieng held in Axminster (see Devon) on 3rd of may 1991. The number of murders per anum in chard has been attributed to major influx of "those bloody forigners" as stated by several convicted residents. 
If ever asked for directions to this place, you should pull a face like an Irish Builder giving a quote and reply "CHAARD! Ooooo Yu dunt wanna go ta Chaard!"
Please, on a final note, if you're near by do us a favour and shoot somebody(s).
==Cricket St Thomas, near Chard==
Cricket St Thomas is near Chard.
==Other Towns==
Minehead, Hen and Stag party capital of the UK ranking 2nd to Prague in Europe,was used by Welsh people to dump their lime, using little boats with no toilets on them to carry it across the Brissol Channel ,hence the colour of the water. Big tent on the seafront called Butlins,changed its name to Somerwest world then back to Butlins because the local could'nt spell it. The majority of Mineheads inhabitants are made up of ex Butlin servants who didn't earn enough money to return up North at the end of the season, and Eastern Europeans who consider this area of chalet lines superior to Eastern block housing. Once a year a man dresses as a strange horse (its his Hobby) and dances around the area for 3 days and nights only stopping at every pub to say hello and have a cup of tea because the pubs have no beer left after selling it to the men playing the squeasebox and drum and all the drunks following the Hobby horse-Then another man dressed as a horse arrives and they have a fight about who likes Cher the best.
To the West of Minehead is a hill called North hill, the US Army realised the mistake while practicing for WW2 and tried to blow it to bits under the disquise of tank practice. Every year there is a pancake race down the Avenue and the race is made harder(at the instigation of the Mayor) by the contestants have to hurdle the A boards outside the Pubs ,shops and cafes. It is now famous for holding the World Tug of War contest , which is hard because the harbour is full of mud, and even at high tide you can only get one tug in there.Famous literary people -John Cleese wrote (Minehead Bye Bye election) and Arthur C Clark who wrote 2001 Space oddessy for David Bowie. Hinkley Point nuclear power station is to the East, now that it is owned by the French the capacity of electricity is down( the French trawlermen are blockading it) the local West Somerset railway is having to revert to steam.
Dunster, Charming medieval Village east of Minehead, popular with tourists who go to visit the Castle Closed on Fridays,the Yarn Market were men stand around telling tall stories of how much cider they can drink, and the famous cobbled High st.that the locals are allowing Elf and safety to dig the cobbles up as they might injure a passing drunk on his way to the Yarn Market. The hymn "All things bright and beautiful" was written here in 1848 by Mrs C.F. Alexander while she was looking at a postcard her sister sent her from Switzerland.
The historic and cultural capital (which is not saying much) of Somerset is Frome, which is so far over to the right that most Somerset people believe it to be in Wiltshire. Frome hosts all the major sporting fixtures in Somerset (such as the Saturday night battles between rival gangs of drunks), and all the cultural activities. The rule is, if it takes place outside Frome it's just folk music or men hitting one another with sticks. 
Also in Somerset, the town of Glastonbury can be found. Its population comprises of witches, the drunk and the living dead.
Shepton Mallet (or Shit and Smellit as it is known to the locals), in the frozen north of somerset, is a town consisting entirely of peoples Auntie's and its estimated that 30% of the worlds population either know someone living there or have lived there. Its home to one of the largest cider plants in the world, surprisingly though the exports of Cider are nil, all of it being drunk within the town. Also beware of the phantom sheep on one of the roundabouts. Some say that if you look at them in the eye, you turn into one yourself.
Yeovil is Somerset's third largest town (after Taunton and Bridgewater) and is little more then a helicopter factory which has the misfortune of being located close to Chard. As the local council has closed any excuses for entertainment facilities Yeovil might once have posessed, the biggest local pastime is hanging around McDonalds or Starrs lane car park revving car engines randomly. 
Yeovil is not considered important enough to merrit its own KFC.
About the only thing the people of Yeovil seem to take some civic pride in is the local football team. It nearly got relegated this season. No one cared except Weymouth who would have been quite disappointed at Yeovil avoiding the drop but were distracted by problems of their own...
Crewkerne is little more then a larger then average village. It has no ducks. Crewkerne contains lots of pubs which is strange as no-one actually wants to go there. Crewkerne is boring. The most exiting things to have happened there in the last century include: Waitrose; recently Crewkerne had a Waitrose built in it which nearby Yeovil dosn't have. Crewkerners seemed to believe that this was some kind of victory over their larger and marginally less boring neighbour. Yeovil didn't care. Trees; recently when the town council built a car park they decreed that a tree was to be knocked down. Needless to say this bought the people of Crewkerne out in protest (no, not much goes on there) and the council eventually decided to tarmack around this great civic monument.
Bruton. About half an hour from Yeovil. It's got two schools. One's an all girls school the others called sexey's.
Westonzoyland; village with a weird name.
Chedzoy; another village with a weird name.
Nempnet Thrubwell; the stupidest village name in the UK.
Farrington Gurney; the most Somerset name of all.
Wells, not to be confused with the small and insignificant nation of sheep fanatics. Wells is in fact the worlds smallest city. It's a village with a cathedral, which according to the archaic civic laws of this nation of Britain makes it a city. The film Hot Fuzz was filmed here, have you seen the film? Then you'll know why. It's not worth a visit. I've been there, I
got a parking ticket.
Somerton, a small and insignificant village Somerton was once the capital of the ancient kingdom of Wessex. That was obviously prior to the events depicted in Lord of the Rings after which the capitol of Wessex moved to Gondor.
Langport, currently undergoing mass Polish immigrant invasion...HELP!!... Once was a battle in langport, unready to fight king charles vauxhalls rode their cavaliers fleeing from the roundheads, barely even able to finish off there bewildered rent boys. The towns main source of employment is the abbatoir, this is basically an immigrant magnet attracting all sorts of various eastern european's everythng from rapists to communists... well it is eastern europe 
Bridgwater, a pathetic excuse for a town Bridgwater was thoroughly insignificant until the residents built a bridge over their river forcing ships to do their business there rather then sailing further upstream as they would have (understandably) preferfed. Bridgwaters major employer untill recently was a cellophane factory. It closed. Although the factory stank the closure has unfortunately done little to improve Bridgwater's smell. Although Somerset isn't known as the smartest place in the country Bridgwater has the distinction of having the lowest average IQ of anywhere in Somerset. This may explain why they seem to get so much pleasure from watching a load of tractors with fairie lights driving up and down their high street every year (this bizarre ritual is called the Bridgwater carnival). Bridgwater has the further distinction of being the only town in Somerset to have made it into the idler guide to 'crap towns' having been put by popular vote into the 50 most hated towns in the UK.
Pitney is a small village in the south of the county with a population of 416. In 1991, the local pub was recognized a World Heritage site by UNESCO, due to the fact it was once the headquarters of a recently discovered ancient empire that spanned from the village all the way to the far-off land of Ireland. The village declared independence in 2001 as the Glorious Imperial Soviet People's Republic of Pitney. It is ruled by a local farmer who calls himself as "The Dear Laeder an' Grea' Girt Big Chairman Person Pe'er 'enderson". The Royal Army attempted to retake Pitney, but they were driven away by angry farmers with pitchforks and nuclear bombs driving perfectly ordinary unmodified tractors shouting "Geddof moi land!"
==Industries==
Upon visiting the hirsuit Regional Capital, hence known as Taunton, the well-known poet Wordsworth was heard to utter:
There once was a town called Exeter, opened n'to a football ground
Where men came out
And shouted "OMG"
"Where's my bumming?"
This gave rise to the great limerick industry of 1602, not to mention the subsequent rent boy associations that haunted Taunton until the late 21st century.
==Notable Educational Establishments==
No.
==Inventions==

Somerset is thought to have been the main idea behind the hit US film Deliverance. Where people in Somerset are all scientifically proven to be inbred and related to each other.
==Geography==
Geographically, Somerset is a county of featureless, flat, boring countryside. Known as the famous "Somerset levels", originally most of the county was under water, as a consequence the Environment Agency is intending to reflood the entire county, creating beatuiful marshlands filled with a variety water birds that rich, civilised people from Bristol can go and admire.
Great rolling mists move in when the Ordnance Survey people came a-poking and a-messing in their new-fangled rowboats. This is not in fact mist, but is actually pollution from all the cider mills, being exposed to this pollution for extended periods of time can cause symptoms like: 
* Throat cancer 
* Lung cancer 
* Moral cancer
* Gurt cancer 
* An uncontrollable urge to go scrumping
* Make passionate love to a cow called Daisy 
* A stupid accent
* An urge to wear Jacob Rees-Mogg's ugly ass suits
Somerset is demarcated in the North by the Mendips, a range of hills too steep for peasants to climb, which is why Somerset ends south of Bristol. Bristol peasants have been known to venture down these hills and be unable to return, becoming stranded in Frome or Norton Radstock. 
In the West, Somerset comes to an end at the Quantocks, an imaginary range of hills named after quantum physics because they only actually exist if you look at them. They are in fact an illusion put in place to hide Hinckley Point nuclear power station.
==Celebrities==
*The Wurzels
*Bill Bailey - who has the shortest hair of all the bumpkins.
*Well, there was this bloke who managed to pat his head and rub his belly at the same time.
*John Cleese The Prime Minister and former Nazi impressionist (Don't mention zee vor!)
*Alfred the Great - ex-king
*Pete Chaff - Lyrical Bumpkin.
*Allan Porvic- This Polish born Somersetian immigrant invented the concept of the square wheel, and those rings that cows have in their nose (which actually have no use what so ever). 
*Alberto Di Siciliano- This Italian American mobster came to Somerset in the late 1940s to escape from Robert De Niro and his goons. He apparently came to Somerset in the hope that the old saying, "where the fuck's Taunton?" would be true. It was, and now Al is the 40th Most Subscribed to Italian Director on YouTube. He also runs a successful hair salon called Dream Cuts which is based in Bridgwater.
*Edgar Wrong. Not to be confused with Edgar Wright, who made all the right moves and became a successful film director. Edgar Wrong made all the wrong moves and now works at Morrisons in Glastonbury.
*Jacob Rees-Mogg. Cartoon character of Lord Snooty who escaped from the Beano when it was ruined by political correctness and was brought to life in a public school prank that went badly wrong. Subsequently inherited all of Somerset. Ponces about in a top hat and waistcoat spouting Latin and Greek quotes in a posh accent nothing like a Somerset one. Creates an irresistable urge to give him a wedgie and steal his lunch money. Can often be seen dogging up Priddy Ponds in a horse and carriage with his sister Anazihunter.
==Local Events==
*The annual "Staring out of windows at random passers by" club (Only for women aged 80+) which is generally followed by
*Synchronised Gossiping - undertaken by the manor folk of Upper Cheddon on the 'nice place to live'/Taunton border
*Church/school/boot/bakery/fruit & veg/too many bloody fairs
*Glaston Berry Festival
*Scrumping
*Wayzgoose. A crappy fair visits one of the fields near the town, and local youths gather to beat the living shit out of one another. Also popular for initiating relationships with local girls, as in "You coming down the fair with I?"
*Wassailing, where dangerously pissed locals gather together to recite poorly drafted poems, urinate on apple trees and fire shotguns into the branches to please the cider spirits and bless the following year's crop of sour little cider apples
*Carnival. Local inbreds spend all year raising money to put 10,000 lightbulbs and a 5kW sound system on the back of a flatbed lorry, called a "carnival float". On successive evenings throughout November, they get kitted up in frog costumes and dance on the back of the float round the winding streets of local market towns. Other popular memes are some kind of ice-king tableau where people with their faces painted blue stand motionless in the freezing night air whilst Wagnerian opera music blasts out of their float. The carnival season ends in Bridgwater, where local thugs hurl barrels of burning tar at each other before copping off with the nearest drunken scrubber.
*The Bi-Monthly "We Hate London Folk because their accent is worse in sound and volume" Club
*Dulverton sheep dog trials at the Magistrates court
==Unique Units==
Jitters: This a good all round defence/attack unit there some were between the line of hippie and goth, and hate Chavs and will think nothing of kicking them in the balls and twisting their necks, their stats are rather blurred, but many pros think its something like this: 
HP: 75 Primary Armament: Fists (May also carry other items nearest to them) (Note: Does a proper punch) Secondary Armament: Foot/Knee NOTE: +15 damage vs chavs Armour: Various wrist bands and similar (Total of 4 armour) Special Attack: *Warhammer Glue: Many "jitters" (As chavs call them) play with warhammer and take great time in painting and glueing them together, the Glue is very strong, so it adds a +7 speed, attack, and a 24 Mana Regen to all surrounding him/her (Can be stacked) Is Passive Mana Points: 25 Special Ability: Rock Music: Although most can withstand this, chavs are instantly killed by this, this also heals the surrounding jitters/emos/goths and the like: Cost 5 mana Strength: 7 Intelligence: May vary: Lowest being 14 
Remember: Jitters are in fact perfectly normal human beings, they replace the Chav unit which is normally a signature amongst the over British sides.
