You can't become a Yorkshireman, You've to be born a Yorkshireman. Owt else doesn't count!!
I heard a family living in Heptonstall referred to as 'offcumdens' (translation: 'bloody outsiders'); they were not true Heptonstall residents. The youngsters were born there, their parents were born there, but their grandparents had only moved there about 50 years earlier, so the whole family were not considered as coming from these 'ere parts!

Hebden Bridge - my friend is to film there as part of a film on economic growth in the North. It is doing well.
The reports I hear are it is beautiful, home to many local businesses, much of them internet based but also well populated by people commuting to either Leeds or Manchester. But perhaps the most curious aspect as a Northern Yorkshire town is it is the lesbian capital of the UK, if not Europe, with a great deal of inward migration of lesbian couples according to the estate agents.

I think it's the case that a lot of the lesbians have moved to Todmorden now, but they're virtually connected....

I got the feeling that most of its inhabitants were too drugged up to realise the time of day, let alone their sexual orientation^_^ But I have fallen in love with it all, the buildings, the canal, the dreadlocked, colourful-attired people and the chocolate caramel shortbread :wub:
