Anyone from the UK?

[angelofthenorth]

All welcome.

Just make sure you pick up your Britishness welcome kit which contains teabags, a vinyl of the Beatles major hits, a book on sarcasm, one triple thick condom (we are British after all), a list of major British landmarks and a translation guide for the major dialects, and a language book each on Gaelic and Welsh.

Don't forget the Yorkshire translation book ! Plus the Yorkshire passport and teabags

Hey you! Don’t sit on that Teams call bored out of your mind. And you over there, rather than sit in a queue listening to endlessly tedious hold music.

Get yourself a Lidl Savoury Snacks box, the pretzels are in letter shapes. Haven’t quite worked out what they supposed to say but I’ve had a good go

I expected an elderly gentleman with a funny hat and an oversized walking cane telling me something like "Thou shall not pass!"

 

[jonnoback]

ooh no I didn't, and of course, a copy of our national anthem.

Just so long as I don't have to recite the words then I'm good

 

[jonnoback]

You are not making it better at the moment.

I'm just a guest here. I'm from Southern Germany. If you want to complain about me being at the UK threat, please write an official complaint to @jonnoback who dragged me in here. I will leave then.

Happy you think I dragged you as not sure I could catch you... unless you wanted to be caught? Oh my...

Checking in to say... I'm possibly a bit merry!

Aren’t we all?

I moved onto the port a little while ago

 

[EyesOnHers]

Probably?

Probably... yep!
Absolute certainty has not been proven

 

[TheWorldBuilder]

I don’t know what “Raining on bin night” means but I hope everyone is staying dry!

You recall the normal English weather? Well that, on the night that the rubbish bins are put out ready for early morning emptying.

I really didn't expect my OCD to make me remind Yorkies of the nuances of their own dialect.

"On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at." Where 'abaht' is an old word for without. 'On Ilkley Moor without a hat.'

"Wheer 'as tha bin sin ah saw thee, ah saw thee?
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at
Wheer 'as tha bin sin ah saw thee, ah saw thee?
Wheer 'as tha bin sin ah saw thee?
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at

Tha's bin a-coartin' Mary Jane
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at

Tha's bahn to ketch thi deeth o' cowd
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at

Then we s'all 'ae to bury thee
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at

Then t'wurrms'll come an' eyt thee up
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at

Then t'ducks'll come an' eyt up t'wurrms
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at

Then we s'all come an' eyt up t'ducks
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at

Then we s'all all 'e etten thee
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at

Tha's wheer we get us oan back
On Ilkla' Moor 'baht 'at
