Ay up,av a skeg at this un.Never ask an Englishman where he is from.If he is from Yorkshire he will tell you.If he is not,it is unfair to embarrass him.
Dean Cooper
On my visit at xmas 2007 with my mate who is an Aussie, and so am i (From Tasmania) to see his parent inlaws, i could not beleive how much Yorkshire was like Tasmania, or parts of it anyway. I instantly fell in love with Yorkshire. I love the towns and villages, the people were great and of course you cant beat them lovely old pubs! (And great Beer!) Cant wait to come Back!

I think you all caught me on a bad day when I wrote my last comment. I went up to Yorkshire (Leeds) for a meeting and just had a handful of bad experiences. Maybe I shoudn't have been so quick to judge! Is that an apology? It's the closest you'll get to one! ;-)

Tom L
Yep. Well glad i got 100% in that quiz. Hate to actually not be from Yorkshire. Or to be told i'm not from yorkshire by a dirty southern machine.
Beth
Please explain just what is so great about Yorkshire (actually, make that West Yorkshire)? My experience is of dismal weather,narrow-minded people and poorly maintained roads. The only reason the cost of living is so low is that nobody with the ability to leave the area would want to stay.
KATIE
I'm 100% Yorkshire and proud of it. How can the people born outside Yorkshire say they are 100% Yorkshire. Only people who were born and bred in Yorkshire can be 100% !!!
Amy
I've had to move away from Yorkshire because of my job. I'm living in Northumberland and its not the same. there's no place like home is there?
Nick Wheaty
I love Yorkshire. Some people say Dronfield is in Derbyshire and I am just a plastic Yorkshireman, but I assure you I’m not. I’ll be celebrating Yorkshire day with my friends from Sheffield (where I hope to live eventually) and prove to them this is God’s County.

Beryl Jeune
i lived in Barnsley during the war, i was very young but i remember living at 49 lambert rd. my late father used to work on the buses and my late older brother used to work at the wool mills, i, my brother and sister went to live in an orphanage called georgeville and Maryville, i'm not sure how long we were there 'cause i was very young, after the war the three of us went back to 49 lambert rd. i live in miami florida u.s.a. now but my heart will always be in Barnsley, my eldest sister used to take us to the town centre and i used to love going to the fair and on the bumper cars, i'll be 70yrs. old this october and i would have liked to visit Barnsley before i died but i don't know anybody there anymore, i guess they're all getting older like me, i used to have the accent as well, we were refugees from Jersey C.I my dad took us back after after the war, it was nice but i landed back in the U.K.oh for the memories. i miss the English people very much but i've been here for the past 26yrs. and i'm a little too old to move. love and miss you all. sincerely.

Living in Virginia, but after only two visits to Yorkshire, I'm 100% and proud of it! I would pack and move in a minute if I could! Couldn't drink beer at all here for a year after I got back - US beer tastes terrible! Oh, and what I wouldn't give for one good pie or Yorkshire pudding. You can't make them here to taste right. We have named our two cats Eadaoin Giggleswick and Bertram Wigglesworth after visiting those villages last trip. After this quiz, we need to save up for our next trip :)
Si
I got the result "Not from Yorkshire" and are happy with it.
You can keep your obession with Yorkshire, your common ways, your stupid accent and your silly narrow-minded views on the rest of the world!
In return, we will continue to laugh at you! (Erm.. thanks Si. Glad you're able to insult the entirety of England's largest county in one fell swoop. Nice one. Ed.)
