As a Welshman, who has grown up in Essex with a family from Lancashire and having gone to uni in sheffield I have to say that I do love Yorkshire... the nice bits anyway.

I also love the nice bits of Essex so maybe Im just lucky with my choice of places to visit.

Ive been to Paris and Rome and neither compare to a weekend in Sheffield, very friendly, very cultural, good food and good beer.....

What of the corridor of uncertainty?

isnt The corridor of uncertainty known locally as the M62?

There's more culture in a pot of yoghurt than there is in Sheffield.

My parents and grandparents were all from Yorkshire. My mum used to wax lyrical about the place until your ears bled. Being a literary type, she was particularly fixated on that Hannah Hawkswell and her spartan lifestyle on the moors - as if in some way having to put up with an outside khazi and no leccy supply was in some way a good thing. Both of my parents fondly remembered a Yorkshire friend of theirs whose car was slowly falling to bits over a period of decades, but who stuck it together by filling up the rusty gaps with a mixture of mud and cowpats. Apparently he referred to this as "claggin' it together wi' clarts". There seems to be a touch of the Monty Python "Three Yorkshiremen" to all of them if you ask me.Still, don't want to upset any of them - I have no defence to eckythump.


but ecky thump is Lancastrian
