Rejoice!
It is with great heart I bring to you this message of good tidings.
It is indeed Yorkshire Day!
It is the 1st of August, so the fine county of Yorkshire celebrates.
To commemorate this day, I'm thinking about confounding all of my clients and would-be callers by speaking in my less-than-neutral, deepest native tongue.
And ye know what? Thez nowt 'rong wi that...

Here in the antipodes it's Horse's Birthday. truly. Every horse's ages increments by one today, no matter when its actually birth-day is.
So if it was born yesterday, it's one year old already? weird.
And do you get a holiday for Yorkshire Day? And if you did, should it be just for people living in Yorkshire, or just for those born there?
Let's have more holidays, that's what I say.
I'm guessing it's been going on for quite some time...
Hi Luke and thanks for posting!
"Yes but is there a Yorkshire Pudding day?"
That's a profound question.
Here up north, we tend to eat more.
While the southerners like to think they're all sophisticated with their three-course meals, we've been doing that every Sunday for centuries!
I do like my little Yorkshire Puddings with mushy peas (like Guacamole .. but with peas) and thick onion gravy.
Bliss...
