Have you ever been to Sedbergh? - my in laws have a Caravan there - it's near Kendal, but in Yorkshire, everyone who lives there hates Yorkshire and think they're from Cumbria and Lancashire Cricket Club play there. It's like Jerusalem   

Sedbergh is in Cumbria isn't it? The ambiguity is it's part of the Yorkshire Dales. I'm sure one of the pubs in nearby Dent is a Leeds Utd pub so somewhere between the two there's a divide.

haha - I've tried lancashire tea - bit too weak for me - any other Tea recommendations? 

I like Earl Grey and Chai, not into the fruity stuff or green tea

I'm a fan of Teapigs Breakfast Tea, not cheap though

yeah you're right, Yorkshire dales in Cumbria hosting lancashire CC - i think the border is a bit more to the east or south maybe?

they don't like Yorkshire

No, it is in the real/historic county of Yorkshire.

one can understand why they wouldn’t want to be a part of it, though

Haha - its a nice place, but if you get into a discussion with any locals in the pubs, don't bring up yorkshire/cumbria/lancashire without expecting a heated debate, fuelled by Black Sheep and Hawkshead bitter

I might have dreamt this, but didn't Todmorden used to be part of Lancashire,but then they moved the border and it's now in Yorkshire? Summat like that anyway. Traf might know something as he lives in that neck i think.

wasn't half of the town in Lancs and half in Yorks, and then it was all moved to Yorks? - isn't it something to do with the river, that is generally thought of as the boundry between the two counties?

Yeh that sounds about right. I remember we used to go to a club up in the hills of Toddy years ago, the locals were just fucking weird iirc - a bit like Darwen folk but even weirder - the kind of place Fred West would have been born in if he was a Yorkshireman.

Re face masks.....on this week's shopping trip, once again the biggest tossers were wearing face masks, ....a middle aged couple shopping together, getting too close, picking stuff up & then putting it back & so on. It does seem that some gobbins think that wearing a mask puts them above following any of the restrictions.

Re Lancs/Yorks..... a long time ago, i used to go to the odd Burnley game ( a school mate was a fan ) & when they sang "Lancashire", a good number sang "Yarkshire ".....apparently they were mainly from the Todmorden area.

Last time I tried it was years ago, the FiL bought a box from Home Bargains. It was crap. Maybe they had a dodgy batch so might try it again, they sell it in our local Coop.

That was the first time I had it and it was awful. There was perhaps a reason that it was in Home Bargains (or was it B&M). Anyway I can get it at ASDA, Tesco and Morrison’s round here

Booo.

You'll be having a fall out with your mum, and I reckon I know who to put my money on!!

Perhaps I will try Lancashire again, just for scientific rigour, but I remain extremely sceptical.

Don’t tell her for Christ’s sake!!!!
