Noob greetings from Yorkshire

lol xxxx

 

Yes come to the party. It will be an eye opener in a nice way

 

Ditto on the small screen.
Hello from Connecticut! My Gran was Irish but grew up in Thirsk, so I love hearing people who talk Yorkshire. I did it myself as a small child, having been mostly raised by Gran, but it disappeared when I went to school and was exposed to the New England accent common to all the kids in school.
I do miss it though.
A song for you by James Barnes: Yorkshire Ballad.
Have a good time, and find your bliss. It's sure to be here somewhere!

 

Hi Angelmama! I'm not native but by now an adopted yorkshireman, via Wales... When I first moved here at 18, I could barely understand the locals lol!

 

Welcome to the Hip Forums
Enjoy your stay

 

Thanks for posting that song, brother!
Someday I might be able to puzzle it out.

 

Hi there! I lived in Leeds for about 16 years, 4 years away and I miss it a lot! I miss the city life tbh. Thanks for the welcome!

 

Sounds like the trouble I had the first time I read Wuthering Heights. As soon as I realized that the dialogue was not misspelled but Yorkshire talk, it was easy. I was used to Gran, after all. I just had to let go of my obsession with proper spelling!

 

Yep, Yorkshire folk like to be um... Unconventional with their dialect spelling!

 

They have the best sense of humor and warm hearts too.

 

I do miss my Welsh brethren too, but the Yorkshire people are pretty great too

 

Another Red Rose-r (with Welsh (Maternal) roots) - Welcome to HIP

 

Hi Wolf Angel, thanks for the welcome! I can tell its gonna be good here

 

I am a little Welsh as well-just a bit. My Gran's great grandfather was Welsh, as was my only ancestor of note, through whom that gentleman descended. This was Sir Henry Morgan, who my Gran always insisted was NOT a "bloody pirate", no matter what the books say. No, he was a privateer, and later became the Governor of Jamaica. She defended his honor most fiercely, having married one of his descendants!

 

Hi and welcome

 

Good morning matey and welcome !!! Will try and make you feel 'at home' !!!

 

Haha nice!
