What makes Yorkshire lovely, elstow, are the very reasons that you enumerate. I was once, in a German pub that was supposed to look like an English pub, asked if it did, in fact, look like an English pub. I answered 'no', and why? I hear you ask. 'Because it's not full of English people.' And so it is with Yorkshire. It does[i look nice, and it [i]is] nice, because it is full of Yorkshiremen! That's what makes Yorkshire lovely, even when the weather is less than nice, which isn't very often. Don't forget, folks: you can always tell a Yorkshireman, but you can't tell him much!
