place, I don\'t think it\'s very common in England, but we do have \'Mancunian\' (Manchester) and \'Liverpudlian\' (Liverpool). Also I\'ve heard \'Kentish\' is used for one half of Kent, but not the other half.. I may be wrong there. This came up in a trivia quiz once. The river Medway is the traditional border between the 'Kentish man' and the 'man of Kent'. I am not sure which man lives on which side of the river. --- Fabian Ikun li dik il-kitba tpatti it-tieba ta' qalb ta' patruni tieghi. Ikun li ttaffi ugigh tal-Mitlufin u tal-Indannati.
