Everyone has their great comedy moments, remember Glasgow was the first British European City of Culture, my how we laughed!

[ARW]

You would not be laughing if if Billy Connolly had told the joke;-)

Never ask a man if he's from Yorkshire. If he is, he'll have told you fourteen times already.

We are used to having to repeat things to the simple minded from other places.

Ha Ha! Nice one! Never heard that one: mostly true.

My favourite mug when I was a lad, had a picture of a True Yorkshireman on it, rosy cheeked, and a knowing look:

'Ear all, see all, say nowt. Eat all, sup all, pay nowt. And if ivver tha does owt for nowt, allus do it for thissen.

Scotland is OK, but the next door neighbours are a troublesome lot.

[Mr Pounder]

Did I ever say that the south of England is a shithole?
