The folk of Wrexham are famous for having the largest chips on their shoulders in the UK. Who can blame them - their Welsh former rivals Cardiff and Swansea are knocking on the door of the Premiership, whilst Wrexham are rolling out the welcome mat to the likes of us!

Their current "Welsh derby" is against Newport County, which at 130 miles distance, is exactly the same length as their journey to Rockingham Road.
Former Miss World Rosemarie Frankland was born in Wrexham. She won the title in 1961 against stiff opposition from girls from China, Spain and France, and no doubt a bit of a stiff one from presenter Michael Aspel.
There are numerous famous siblings from Wrexham, including footballers Rob and Joey Jones, Mark and Edwin Hughes (the former is the current Fulham boss and the latter the last survivor of the Charge of the Light Brigade, or vice versa), and of course, the transvestite sisters Rob and Lily Savage.
