- quite a few years now, and loving every minute..
what a lovely thread..
feel very disappointed in myself that i've always bypassed yorkshire on my way to elsewhere, my loss it seems looking at the photos..
the carvings of the old men were fascinating if somewhat a little creepy as if they were entombed in the stone and trying to emerge..
hopefully one day i shall make it up there to look around and enjoy..

That’s correct. The locals pronounce it “Steers”.
Way back in the 1950’s, a then elderly Aunt was the tenant/landlady of the “Cod & Lobster”. Several summers my parents took me there to stay over in the pub for a week’s holiday. I still remember scrambling over the rocks at the seashore when the tide was out with my father, looking for shells and small crabs. Happy childhood memories.

An American photographer on vacation was inside Westminster Abbey taking
photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with
a sign that read "£10,000 per call".
The American, being intrigued, asked The Dean who was strolling by what
the telephone was used for. The priest replied that it was a direct line to
heaven and that for £10,000 you could talk to God.
The American thanked the priest and went along his way.
Next stop was in Lincoln. There, at the Cathedral, he saw the same
golden telephone with the same sign under it.
He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in London
and he asked the Bishop what its purpose was. The Bishop told him that it
was a direct line to heaven and that for £10,000 he could talk to God.
"O.K., thank you," said the American.
He then traveled to Liverpool & Durham.
In both Cathedrals he saw the same golden telephone with the same
"£10,000 per call" sign under it.
The American, then decided to travel to York to see if they had the same phone.
As as he entered the magnificent York Minster, there was the same golden
telephone, but this time the sign under it read "50 pence per call".
The American was surprised so he asked a nearby Cleaning Lady about the sign.
He said " Madam, I've travelled all over England and I've seen this same golden
telephone in many Cathedrals. I'm told that it is a direct line to heaven and that I
can talk to God. The price was always £10,000 per call. Why is it only 50 pence here?"
The Cleaning Lady smiled and said " Thart in Yorkshire nah Lad. So it's a local call."
Now you know why folk from Yorkshire “ Wear it like a badge.........Sithee " !!!!!!!!!
