Hear hear my Yorkshire cousin! LOL Seriously though, with a Yorkshire Grandmother and a Lancashire Grandfather, all I have to say is: "Can't we all just get along?"

Re: Where Do You Live
I am Lancashire born and bred but my late husband was a Yorkshireman. Oh yes, that bit of culture in Yorkshire - they've got this thing called the Huddersfield Choral Society, always having gigs with some bloke called Handle or something, obsessed with Christmas and Messiahs etc. It won't last!
When I married my Yorkshireman I went to live in Langham, Rutland, because he was sering at RAF Cottesmore. Nobody there could hear anybody, then, because the place was full of Vulcan Bombers.
