Was born in the Dales - Wharfedale to be precise - brought up in Grassington and then Skipton but am now down sarf. Got married up there though - in Rylstone Church

I miss it but my parents and brother are in the Dales though and we visit fairly often

 

[King Biscuit Time]

Another one for the South Yorkshire massive.

Can be over the border into North-East Derbyshire with an hour's brisk walk though.

 

[CyberRose]

South Yorkshire's rubbish... its too flat!

Flat!? FLAT!? Have you ever BEEN to Sheffield!? Half of it's in the Peak District ffs!

Did anyone catch that news story from a couple of years ago about various ancient texts hidden away in the Vatican vaults as they conflicted with their teaching of Christianity? Apparently they found some scrolls in the Sinai which actually contained the map Moses was supposedly using to guide him to Israel (the promised land). It confused archaeologists as the landscape bore no resemblance to anywhere in the Levant. That's when the Pope seized it and put it under lock and key. Anyway, the rumour has it that the landmarks visible on the map show that is was unmistakably the region to the east of the Pennine mountain range in England...

Sheffield dweller of 6 odd years here, will be moving back to South London in September however (which is where I'm from). I fucking love this place and will be very, very sad to leave. S10/S11/S6 at the way.

Wicked part of the world. I'm in Harrogate... we go and jump off the big 20ft drop at Burnsall into the Wharfe in summer as a hangover cure. Works every time!

I'm originally from Calderdale even tho I live in Leeds... really miss the countryside but I live in Armley and the Aire valley is a couple o mins from me doorstep

I'm in Bramley and pretty close to parts of the aire valley. If I was at the top of this road I might even have a view *sighs*.


Like to live nearer to Ilkley/ Otley or possibly somewhere in North Yorks near the coast.

Leeds is alright. It's big enough to be a 'proper' city, but small enough to get out of and close enough to some nice places.

 

[Orang Utan]

The Dales are awesome - one of the things I miss about Leeds is being able to get out of it into spectacular scenery - you can even do it by bus if you don't have a car

 

[Fledgling]

ahh, just been visiting N.Yorks, stayed over and v. nice the place was too. Still prefer this side o' the Pennines though.

 

[Bingo]

lovin this shit... yay!

 

[citygirl]

Well it was great...till we got invaded by the Lancs

 

[mauvais]

Shut it you! We'll make it 3-1!

 

[citygirl]

We still got the biggest county *sniffs*

I was born in Cleethorpes so am not a Yorkie. I did, however, live in Scarborough and Staithes. The scenery is stunning. But Yorkshire people can be very offensive wile justifying it as being honest. They seemed to think that calling me a Zulu headed half caste was acceptable and funny.

I would much rather live in London and the South East if I ever move back to UK.

Surely it#s also quite offensive to group all Yorkshiremen together as people who think calling someone a "Zulu headed half caste" is acceptable or funny.... Doubt anyone on this thread would.... Or any of my friends or family or colleagues who I live with in Yorkshire come to that.

Fountains Abbey, Swaledale, Malham, Teesdale, Whitby!

 

[derf]

I may be in Indonesia but I'm a lad from Allah's own Yorkshire.
I'm trying to get them to rename my village to Barnsley.

I lumped Yorkshiremen together because it only ever happened in Yorkshire, and only ever was said by Yorkshiremen.

Burnsall rules!

Burnsall rules!

I have many happy memories of it

I was born in Beverley, and lived in/around there until 1998. Been in London since 2000, though. I still have a slight accent, apparently.

 

[aqua]

Born in Beverley too - lived around Hull and west hull villages until aged 24ish then again between 26-7

fucking love it and really miss it

 

[Part 2]

Born and lived in York til I was 17.

Been across the pennines since. Used to like going back to York but went back recently and realised I'm well over it.

 

[jonnyd1978]

Well that's me told.

Telt lad...that's you telt.

 

[moose]

Born in Whitby <snip> parents still live there so I do get back every now and then.

Are you single?

Whitby is one of the finest places on earth.
