August 1st is Yorkshire Day! ;)

[Will Power]

I'll have a go I might send me whippets over t'moor everyday is a good day for a nice knife and a sup of beer. Getting to Yorkshire could be problematic...good job I'm aviophobic

On a more subtle note, Kes is a great film but I was astonished that some audiences needed subtitles? Right queer ......

Knife Aspect too

That film is absolutely hilarious Will!

There are buses over here now where an automated voice announces the bus stops. Usually they have a BBC news-reader type voicing the announcements, but we got on a bus the other day with announcements in broad Yorkshire!

Does Barnsley still exist? I thought Madam Thatcher willed it away.....

It just about survived, but it's changed a lot, everyone either works in a call-centre, is a junkie, or both

MMMMM Samuel Smith Taddy Porter or the Nut Brown Ale.....two of my favorites....I don't have one on hand and I'm at work...but it does sound good right about now!

I don't have a Lambsfoot made in Sheffield by Arthur Wright & Son....So I guess this is my entry! I promise not to sell it and I would definitely post pics of it on the Guardians thread!

Happy Yorkshire Day!

I'm pretty certain that if I worked in a call-centre I would be a junkie.

Postscript to post #13: couldn't find the pale ale, but picked up a bottle (1 pt, 2.7 fl. oz) of Samuel Smith Imperial Stout.

My American knife July isn't quite up, but on the first I will be carrying my I*X*L Wostenholm.
I've actually never heard of Yorkshire day before, but have been eyeing it for a few weeks now and had planned on carrying it as soon as July was up.

 

[Old Engineer]

I will carry these 2 Lambsfoot by Taylors Eye Witness .







And I also will make some Yorkshire Pudd. It has been way too long since I have made it . One of my favorite foods . Might even make some mushy peas as well .

Oh I'm definitely in! I'd love to take part in this knife GAW. Anyone that wouldn't would have to be "Queer as Dick's hatband".

 

[Jolipapa]

I'm in, just for fun!

 

[bonzodog]

This is in my pocket for a few days to honour Yorkshire day.

 

[Old Engineer]

Forgot to say that " I AM IN " Jack . If I am lucky enough to win that A.Wright , I will give it away because I have some .

Cool pics guys



I was planning to go to North Yorkshire tomorrow, and visit the market town of Knaresborough. However, I picked up the book above earlier, and after seeing a photo of The Fat Cat in Sheffield, I started hankering for some of their great food and a Sheffield pint or two, so that's where I'm heading for Yorkshire Day

 

[Shurke]

the blessed inhabitants of God’s Own County, (the ones with good memories and reliable calendars), celebrate all-things Yorkshire! Whether it be wearing a traditional flat-cap, eating a scone, wrestling a ferret, or sitting in the pub drinking a pint and watching the rain teem down outside, no expense is spared!

Please tell me the ferret wrestling events will be televised on ESPN. I could see myself tuning in for that.

 

[Kbrasmodeler]

LAMBSfoot, you say? You're daft, mate! This here's a sheepsfoot:

and it's wee compared to that monster Sheffield blade. You'll just have to send it my way, so I can see what the fuss is about.
Cheers!

You might have to check the Yorkshire Gazette for clarification In the meantime, here's a word from our sponsors

TYKES

We’re a rare strange bunch ‘at live up ‘ere

But we’ve gradely grub an’ champion beer

An’ mony a famous name thou’l see

On Yorksheer own proud family tree.



Oor sportin’ ways are second ter none

Oor art an’ culture speak as yan

Us Yorksheer fowk ev Yorksheer ways

An’ when we say we laiks we plays.



Oor language is t’ English true

Oor thee, thou, tha’s are nothin’ new

Wi’ glottal stops an’ aitches dropped

The G at end is allus cropped.



So com’ thi ways to oor grand county

An’ sample sum o’ Yorksheers bounty

Oor ales are grand, oor looance too

An’ friendly fowk to welcome thoo.
