I say, you fellows!

I've recently been reminded what a splendid fellow riksowden is. If he keeps this up, I might even grant him the status of 'Probationary Yorkshireman', such a sound chap is he.*

So, anyway. I propose a round of cheers for Rik!

[Poll #601941]

^{*I asked him for a small favour, and unexpectedly received a large one.**
**Oo-er, missus.}

I thought he was a Yorkshireman? Or does having lived in Oxfordshire disable him in some way?

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

He claims to be a Yorkshireman as he is aware of the social cachet and prestige this grants him, but being living there for twenty minutes three decades ago is no qualification.

[raggedhalo.livejournal.com]

Ah right. So is he more or less Yorkshirey than I am Canadian?

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

Dunno - do you claim to be Canadian because it impresses girls?

[tooth-fairy.livejournal.com]

he likes to think he is :p

[raggedhalo.livejournal.com]

Nah. I have a certificate which makes me Canadian and stuff.

Well, actually it's the father that makes me Canadian, but you know what I mean.

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure that I'd consider being made of Canadian spunk anything to boast about... :p

What on earth are you speaking about?

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

Your jealousy is showing...

[old-corbie.livejournal.com]

My genius is famed throughout the land.

[riksowden.livejournal.com]

I am a Yorkshireman because i was born in Yorkshire and raised proper.

Shutit Wade!
