AMJ Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 To all of those in Gods own county or should that be COUNTRY Happy Yorkshire day. In the best tradition of the Fast Show - today I'll be mostly drinking real ale from Black Sheep, Copper Dragon, Tim Taylors, Theakston's & Sam Smiths but none of the chemical rubbish from the certain mass brewers with a huntsman & a magnet shown as branding. Today I'm proudly wearing a large White Rose When not drinking real ale I drink council pop aka Yorkshire Watter Yorkshire Pudding served with lots of onion gravy - note that this is a course in many local resteraunts in addition to the starter, mains and dessert.

Andy C Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Aren't the words "Happy" and "Yorkshire" an oxymoron when together Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkmouse Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 S'alright Andy. We forgive you. It's not your fault you're on t' wrong side o' Pennines. And I'm not one of the Yorkshiremen who still has any bitterness over the Wars of the Roses. Oh no... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted August 1, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 1, 2010 Aren't the words "Happy" and "Yorkshire" an oxymoron when together Only when uttered by someone from outside the great county envy is a terrible thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Neil Posted August 1, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 1, 2010 Aren't the words "Happy" and "Yorkshire" an oxymoron when together I think you'll find it's 'lavish' and Yorkshire' that become an oxymoron when placed together. Happy and Yorkshire go together rather well when the prospect of beating Lancashire at cricket is contemplated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Today will no doubt bring a lot of envious comments from those non-Yorkshire people! Yorkshire Pudding served with lots of onion gravy - note that this is a course in many local resteraunts in addition to the starter, mains and dessert. That tends to be a West Riding thing though I think. But you lot don't have seasoning on your chips, which is just weird...! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted August 1, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 1, 2010 I'll stick a couple of extra Aunt Bessie's Yorkshire Puds on tonight in honour. However this shall be done with caution as I was once related a tale that a couple of Southerners took over a pub in Yorkshire once a few years back and on their first weekend served the aforementioned ready made 'Yorkshire' puddings resulting in a near riot and the Police having to be called to calm things down!!

Guest CLARENCE Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Happy Yorkshire Day, to all those lucky "tykes" who still live in God's own county, and commiserations to those who now live elsewhere, like me(Northumberland, which is lovely, but not Yorkshire). I till love the Dales, but they're rather a long way away these days! Regards, David. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allegheny1600 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Happy Yorkshire day! Especially to all those Yorkshire men(& women!) who are sooo full of how great Yorkshire is but choose to live elsewhere!!!! During my time, i have lived in Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Lancashire and France - in all of these places, i've come across ex-pat Yorkshire folk who are, shall we say, full of nostalgia!!! How come Yorkshire gets it's own day anyway? All the best from LANCASHIRE!!!! John E. . Dons flak jackets and runs for cover!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horsetan Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Possibly coincidentally, I heard on Radio 4 at the weekend that a special "Yorkshire Symphony" has been composed. It is a 15-minute work, and features a great many performers, one of whom - and I kid you not, 'cos I actually heard it! - is reported to be "a transvestite singing in the middle of a field of sheep".
