If you're ever speaking to someone new and they ask where you're from, there's a whole list of things their mind might race to when you mention Inverclyde.
From things we eat to famous faces and urban legends to viral videos - here are just five things that Inverclyde is known for.
We eat 'slice rolls'
There is no greater betrayal to your Inverclyde roots than having to ask for a 'roll and sausage' whenever you step beyond the local border.
Ask anyone from elsewhere what they call square sausage and they will look at you with disgust when you give it its Inverclyde title.
Martin Compston was born here
Everyone's favourite telly cop was born in this very place. He attended St Columba's High and shot to fame after starring in Sweet Sixteen, filmed locally. He's also a Tele reader...
Flooding
Every year without fail, we make the national headlines for flooding. Twenty minutes of rain brings the entire place to a standstill - it's not our strongest quality.
The Shipyards
An area with a rich heritage of shipbuilding - at one point we were the world's leading shipbuilding community.
All sorts of vessels from yachts to great sailing ships, from puffers to liners were built by Inverclyde yards, with a full listing of all the vessels built locally containing almost 10,000 entries.
Oak Mall Valentine's video
Each year without fail, Twitter is set alight on February 14. Not with people talking about their love for others - but with the Oak Mall Valentine's video. Most Scottish social media users know exactly what we're talking about, but for those who don't - here's a reminder.
