    Reckon its possible? I mean Yorkshire is the right size, has a different mentality (although does share some traits with Scottish folk) and in parts we even have our own dialect and ways 8)

    Two Lancashire men in a pub. One says to the other “You can always tell a Yorkshireman.”

    “Aye,” responds the other, “but you can’t tell him much.”

    I like Yorkshire folk.

    They never fail to make me feel grateful that I’m now living back in Lancashire.

    20 years in Todmorden does strange things to a man spawny.
    I’ve only been home for a year – doctor reckons I’ll be able to smile again someday.

    I still get scared if folk offer to buy me a drink in the pub or say hello in a friendly manner – Post Todmorden Stress Disorder according to the crisis team, quite common apparantly.

    Tod is the ginger step-child of Yorkshire, not sure what mistake we made to have to start looking after it, but stuck with it now

    You try telling them then…..

    More specifically, Tod has been stuck in a loop – every day is a wet childhood Sunday afternoon in the late 1950’s.

    The whole town was cursed by Grandma Pollard, a local wise woman – she objected to the fact that a small child smiled at the repeal of rationing.

    Her relatives continue with the tradition of a warm Todmorden welcome for everyone.

    Todmorden is the example as to why Lancastrians and Yorkists shouldn’t breed!
    PS – its DEFINITELY in Yorkshire!
