Ah yes, the one day of the year that you see the words "happy" and "Yorkshire" in the same sentence. 😉

You're so jealous, @Griff9of13. 😄

Clearly the work of Lancastrians, @Bostik Bailey. I will pray for you.

Indeed.

And that's why it's seen as the epitome of rudeness to ask anyone if they're from Yorkshire. 

If they're not from Yorkshire,  you'll just embarras them into having to admit it in public, and if they are, they'll tell you soon enough. 

As the old saying goes, you can tell a Yorkshireman......but you can’t tell him much...

I’m not prejudiced, I hate everybody equally

So that ok. Then just because poisoning and raptor persecution happen elsewhere, we can all forget about it and just celebrate that Yorkshire has given he world the Nidderdale Cocktail.

Jesus.... bet thaz a reight laugh at Christmas....

Every single county, region, province, state, country or culture will have a dark side. What wrong with celebrating the good stuff?? 

Children suffered grave abuse at the hands of the Catholic Church in Ireland. By your logic St. Pats day is a no no then? Dear me.

At Junior School in Cas around 1975 the Teacher told us we were going on a school trip to Malham Cove.  To show us where Malham was he drew an outline of the east coast on the blackboard and then an outline of the west coast.

He then shaded in the middle area and told us this area is called the Pennines.  He then marked where Malham was.

As an afterthought he said ‘If this area is Yorkshire, what is the area to the left of the Pennines called?’.  No one answered.  The Teacher added ‘They are our biggest rivals at cricket’.  My mate whispered to me ‘I know the answer’.  So he put his hand up.  The Teacher said ‘Go on then’.  My mate then shouted out ‘The West Indies’. 😄😄

Again ? , Already ?🤔

If you live in Yorkshire*, or were born there, every day is Yorkshire Day.

It may be difficult for outsiders to understand, but our level of self-righteous smugness cannot stem from a single calendar date. 😊

*other counties are available
