I am Lancashire born and bred but my late husband was a Yorkshireman. Oh yes, that bit of culture in Yorkshire - they've got this thing called the Huddersfield Choral Society, always having gigs with some bloke called Handle or something, obsessed with Christmas and Messiahs etc. It won't last! :rolleyes:

When I married my Yorkshireman I went to live in Langham, Rutland, because he was sering at RAF Cottesmore. Nobody there could hear anybody, then, because the place was full of Vulcan Bombers. :D

Re: Where Do You Live
 
I live in a rural village right up in the Nrth corner of Cambs no one has ever heard of - Elm. There is a post office which seems to be closed quite often, i.e. lunchtime, all day Wed and Sat afternoon. They have some quick food i.e. l tin of bean, l packet of cigarettes etc. Actually I think that belongs to the next village, Fridaybridge. We are newcomers - people really don't want to know us - can't say I blame them but when you walk along the street, if you pass someone, they will always say hello. Can't get used to it - only pervs did that where we moved from. It is a brilliant change from where we moved from in West Sussex!

I had family moved to West Sussex, when they got fed up of the ignorance, and the cost, they came back, after a spell of 5 years in 1 house, my brother told me that he didn't even know his next door neighbours surname!

You aren't kidding Kate, long walk to anywhere, but once you have a driving loicence it is for life and if you lose that you can get a "sans permis" vehicle - 600cc max speed50 kph but they get you there. Even if you get banned you can still drive one of those - This is France after all - joie de vivre :-)))

Sorry - "sans permis" - without a (driving) licence

"already got a tuppence thanx"

"Used to be a halfpenny (hapenny), when I was a lad"

I thought the context of my post was pretty straight forward - obviously not, I will try and simplify it for you.
You have a tuppence? - either inflation has struck here as well, or you are pricing yourself out of the market? Some 60 years ago the girls often referred to their
hapenny:-)))

Re: Where Do You Live
 
I'm in Cambridgeshire (Fenland) but at one end of the road it says "You are entering Nelson's County" - this means you are in Norfolk and round the corner you are in Lincolnshire (Sutton Bridge or Tydd Gote). Find it quite peculiar but I am sure there is a logic to some of their names AND pronunciations somewhere i.e. MANEA is pronounced MANEE - how could anyone guess that!!!!!!!!!
