I grew up there. Now on missionary work in Suffolk trying to teach the tractor driving yokals that Green King does not represent good beer and it is certainly not ok to charge 2.40 for a pint of bitter.
Nor is £1.50 a satisfactory price for a game of pool, and no I dont care if the cloth is red.
Etc, etc, repeat - fade.

My mate Tuss grew up in Donny, he hasn't been back there for years now, and said he knows he is turning into a soft southern poof, because he feels intimidated by the idea of going there now....game set and match to London.
Never ceased to amaze me how many people there are down south who think Londoners are wankers, but all bloody live here...
Only joshing before someone starts getting irate...most of my mates (sadly) are from the likes of York, Skipton, Manchester, Doncaster...

No wonder you crave reinvented roots if you're from Mansfield. People there are like people from Lincolnshire and the North East, they can see Yorkshire and yet they're not from it. It must burn deep.

If we're talking rough towns try Rhyl on the coast in North Wales. In the summer its littered with northerners on their holidays coupled with the local mad sheepshaggers it can be quite a hoot at chucking out time.

Why is it that Yorkshiremen think everyone is jealous of them, you're welcome to the piss poor weather, dour faced people and most of all Geoff Boycott...

No think involved mate. Just factual observations.
I think only the Cornish, Scousers and Toon Army have an equivalent pride in their roots.
And if only Boycott was still playing hey? Do you think he'd have got out for FA on Pakistani feather bed wickets.
They'd still be trying to get him out now.

Yeah, and he'd have scored 10 runs in the whole day, and run out two of his own team......
The weather in Yorkshire is bleedin awful, but then being from sub-tropical london, I am rather spoilt with the weather...

i dont crave renivented roots my friend otherwise id just say I was from London, strange to me to think you love yorkshire so much yet you are as far away from it as we are .
and as I say i dont have any affiliation for the place (scabtown)other than i spent the first nine months of my life there.
Strange behaviour tho i must say, surely a man who wears his love for his birthplace so proudly on his sleeve lives in such a fuckin nice but dull region as suffolk. Perhaps you are just an avid Alan partridge fan, in fact that could be the case having met ya
no offence to those from the area but its not exactly in my top ten places to visit. I dont want a load of farmers foning me up and making my life a misery prodding me with pitchforks and singing songs about carrots and such like..
On the plus side tho York is a great city I love it and I do think yorkshire has a charm in a royston vasey type of way.
dont get upset Dave you started it (in fact no-one take this too seriously im just having a larf):TU:

Although I am proud of being Welsh, North Wales is a fuckin shithole and I cant believe people live there. I've only been back once in the last 3 years its a shit tip. Almost as bad as Yorkshire! ;) :P

Did you know that the Welsh are actually the descendents of the ancient Britons? Wales literally means Foreigners...

No Yorkshireman would dare not to undertake the missionary work bestowed upon them no matter how dull and derelict the location. Suffolk is a quiet peaceful place where nothing much happens.
But there remains much to do, one day the Republic may recall me but for now I'll continue with my duties.

I'm from County Durham myself and it certainly didn't burn deep that my home town Darlington is very close to Yorkshire but not in it.
I fornicating hate Darlington now but every time I go to London it confirms for me that I could never live there. It's absolutely manic - just too quick for me.
I love Yorkshire, Sheffield in particular where I now live and it would take something big to drag me away from here. Then again, the missus is getting bigger all the time
As for Doncaster...I went to the races there once. Never again. I never knew it was possible to fit so many raggers in one place. One lad, who looked about 15, got his cock out and had a piss in the middle of the bookies and no one batted an eyelid.
