to all Yorkshire folk, commiserations to those unlucky enough not to have been born in God's own county. :default_cool:

It’s that good that the residents can’t wait to escape to Norfolk!  Strange that!  :default_rofl:

We come down there al the time to try to make it as good as God's own county.

Still quite a way to go though in some areas.  lol

If you were to take the plunge and try it you would be so annoyed with yourself when you

realized what you've been missing!!!!!!!!

Two things belong on chips - salt and vinegar!  Nothing else.

I was born in Yorkshire during the war. My father was in the Royal Airforce. I am a Yorkshire man.

I won the North Allerton BEST BABY competition. First prize.

Eh oop!

A few weeks later, only a few months old I left for Norfolk where I have lived ever since. 

If I go back should I inform the local mayor?

Was that the war of the Roses?  😁

Oh and btw, the Bible states Yorkshire being Gods Country :-

 

 ‘Three wise men came from the East Riding, on camels

East Riding  of Yorkshire of course

If ever there was an example of the need for correct grammar, there’s a perfect example!  One misplaced ruddy comma!  :default_coat:

I've been to Yorkshire many years ago and found it to be beautiful and the people friendly. Their Yorkshire puddings are to die for with lashings of gravy, gravy is not mean't for chips, salt and vinegar for chips 

In fact I remember a candle maker from Yorkshire...... He was halfway through making a batch of red candles. He had been working without a break for hours, so his wife bought him a plate of cheese for sustenance

He was so keen to finish working he ignored the food and continued to be engrossed in his labours

All of a sudden he let out a mighty sneeze and sent the red hot wax flying

He opened his eyes and saw the wax had completely covered his cheese supper. He cried out in anguish 

"EEEE DAMN!"
