• Yorkshire Day

    Posted by Iain Gordon on July 31, 2005 at 10:08 pm

    Well you may, or may not, know that it is Yorkshire Day tomorrow. I thought it would be wise to shiow some Yorkshire sayings and their translations in order to teach some of the Southern Softies how to speak proper….

    Hope you enjoy ๐Ÿ˜€

    I thought this was very funny
    But dont know how many will understand it ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Auld fella walking alongside canal and sees a nine-year old lad fair crying his eyes out.

    “Wot’s tha cryin’ fer, young un?”
    Through sniffles and bawling, little lad manages to say “A’ve loss me mate. Me mate fell in t’canal” and points about three feet in front of him.
    “By ‘eck” says fella and without further ado, strips off his jacket and shoes then jumps into the canal. After few minutes he splashed to side and says, “‘Ow old was tha mate?”
    By this time, lad had stopped howling and watched the auld fella fair dumbstruck. “Wot’s that mean, ‘ow old?”
    “Thy mate” said fella, “‘ow old were ‘e? Wor ‘e a big lad?”
    Little lad scowled at the old man, “Nah! Tha daft bat. Not me mate – me mate outa me saniches”

    I started that months ago, you bunch of Northern poofs!

    Bloody M1. Should terminate at Junction 19. And I’d only allow it that far north so I can get to the M5 to go back south again.

    yes Marcella he and she ( you can just about see her ) are scooby doo’s
    and if I had a pound for every time I’ve heard the saddle thing I wouldn’t need to do sign writing (!) still would though love it. No we don’t breed them these two are brother and sister I wouldn’t be able to let them go we have also had german shepards but for the last 15 or so years it’s been scooby doo’s the gentle gaint’s of the dog world
