Coming from Coventry it will feel like you've reached the promise land!

Everywhere's the promised land when you come from Coventry. Must feel the same with your home town?

To try and fit in .... Pretend u have no money and complain about spending anything. But have a wax jacket worth £600 and a £300 pair of Wellington boots on
