I'm just curious to know from my fellow compers who live in and around the Manchester area what you put down for your County?
Do you put Greater Manchester or Cheshire/Lancashire etc? I.m based in Stockport and I've usually put Cheshire down but Stockport is actually one the towns that make up the County of Greater Manchester. Same as Oldham/Rochdale/Bolton/Wigan make up Lancashire.
I don't think it matters that much but I am just interested to know what everybody else as put.

I am originally from Bury and it's the same there. I would always put Lancashire as that is where I was born not Greater Manchester.
It's just everyones personal preferences though really and I've never had any problems with things not arriving when I post anything back to friends and family.0 -

I still think of myself as a Lancashire Lass but if the competition is Manchester based e.g. meal/hotel/tickets I put Greater Manchester.0
