Yorkshire - what is it?

A large county in Northern England. Sometimes referred to as the "Texas of England" And rightly so, everything is bigger and better in Yorkshire. Origin of various great accents, ratty little yorkshire terriers and the famous yorkshire pudding. It's titular city is York - a popular tourist destination and it's symbol is a white rose. Yorkshire has a historical feud with neighbouring county, Lincolnshire. Yorkshiremen are stereotyped as wearing flat caps and owning whippet dogs and being miserly.

I've lived in Yorkshire for a decade, luckily no one has realised I'm originally from Lincolnshire!

Yorkshire

Yorkshire is Englands Largest County, habitat of a truly great breed of peoples, the yorkshire men. But alas the end is nigh for these peoples as they succumb to the grasping fingers of the big city corporations which seek to turn their flatcaps to NY baseball caps, their pint of bitter to a bottle of smirnof ice and generally give the place a good 'chaving' up. I fear in 50 years the sight of the true yorkshire men quaffing beer after a hard games cricket or a quick sweat down some or other coal mine will be no more. And we'll look like every other sod in sodding britain.

Yorkshire, the sweet white rose county
Emerdale the soap written by soft, southern, shandy drinking, bastards to charicature hard working intelligent yorkshire men.

Yorkshire

A place for those who appreciate countryside and city alike, fresh air, culture, tradition, rain and down to earth, hard working folk. Not to forget an accent which has a soul, not something nicked off the telly.
