Northern Ireland people are without question the friendliest and most genuine you will ever meet in the United Kingdom.
Here's a list of 24 things we are much better at than our English, Scottish and Welsh counterparts.
Belfast, Northern Ireland.
Regardless of whether you are from Northern Ireland or not you can always depend upon the people here to welcome you in a way like no other in the U.K.
N.I. people can sit and drink tea like no other group of people in the U.K. so, no matter how diplomatic you think you are there is no way we are leaving until we are good and ready.
You can keep your full English, haggis and leeks - when it comes to breakfasts there is nothing in the world that even comes close to the Ulster Fry.
The Twelfth is an absolute joy to behold in Northern Ireland and when it comes to the marching side of things we are second to none.
Ask anyone who moves away from Northern Ireland and they will tell you our takeaways are miles better than anything in England, Scotland and Wales.
We have Barra, Cecilia, Angie from the BBC and Frank over on UTV all keeping us right. When it comes to weather obsessing we have it in spades compared to our counterparts across the water.
Few places exist in the world with such a strong sense of identity like ours in Northern Ireland. We are proud of who we are, where we come from and where we are going.
If complaining was an Olympic sport the people of N.I. would be to moaning what legendary athlete Usain Bolt was to the 100m and 200m. The rest of the U.K. can think what they want but we are top class at whining.
Not only is our beef better than anything in England, Scotland and Wales but its amongst the best in the world. Irelands Best Chef 2018, Jess Murphy, once said it is virtually impossible to overstate just how good beef from here is.
The N.I. sense of humour is truly unique and is perhaps at its best when its at its darkest. We have yet to experience a situation where the N.I. sense of humour would be inappropriate.
N.I. people are so proud of their identity and where they are from that will literally jump at the chance to support something local. We might be a small wee country but boy to we punch above our weight!
