    Oops your right, cant let our secret out.
    Right Yorkshire is full of flat cap wearing, whippet owning, tripe eating, pigeon fancying, people with a certain fondness for sheep and warm beer.
    All areas are dodgy, with a an ASBO afflicted Youth next door. The only jobs are in tmill and tpit.

    The wimmin are all harridans the men are all henpecked.
    Mangleing in t' backyard is mandatory every Monday, rollers or hairnets and pinnies have to be worn at all times. Men have to slap their unopened paypackets on the kitchen table every Friday and have to wear white mufflers on a Sunday.
    Kids are only allowed to wipe their snotty noses on their sleeves, coal can only be kept in the bath and all tattoes must be mis-spelt

    Go Pauper Princess, Wakey is on the up big time, lots of new developments by the River including art gallery, shops, bars etc, The market hall is about to be flattened and re-built who wouldnt be charmed after doing the Westgate run.

    Before I moved there, I quizzed a cop, and he advised the only places top avoid were Lupset & Agbrigg.

    Ahhhhhhhhh the Lupset estate- largest council estate in the UK- all satelite dishes, Christmas light central and not a job amongst them!!

    You won't be able to miss the new art gallery when it's built - just look for the kind of building where small animals are experimented on. Lots of new 'apartments' being built in keeping with local architecture as they all look like council multi-storeys. Lots of new shops, very moneysaving as most of them won't sell anything costing more than 3.99The bars will be good with hot and cold running vomit. The new market will sell the same rubbish as the old one does which is why no-one visits it. The Westgate run is a dodge the drunks, cops, druggies, loony taxis, massed shriekers experience of a lifetime.
    My friendly cop advised the only places to avoid were those with a WF postcode.

    And they are all closely related- even before they breed with each other!
