The answer to today's Geo Quiz is the county of Cumbria, in northern England, near the border with Scotland. That much is true. There's a pub called the Bridge Inn in Santon Bridge in a remote corner of Cumbria that just hosted their annual "World's Biggest Liar Contest." The winner this year was a local farmer named Johnny Liar, he claims he grows turnips that are carved out by local people in the Lake District and then re-used as sheds to house sheep.
