top joke,have a star

That's a really sweet joke! Thanks.

Like it,Thank you for the laugh.Go on then have a star.

The truth is all english have a direct line to heaven as were all so perfect.

Ooh, absolutely. To ring London is the equivalent of anyone else ringing America. Us Yorkshire folk are canny with our brass!!

Thats dumb.

I liked that, not because I'm Yorkshire born,
I enjoyed reading it.

Well it is a sweet joke, and I've worked on location a few times before now in Harrogate, North Yorkshire.
I parked outside a small factory once - on the street, where I was working one day, and was asked "is that your van outside?"
I replied "Yes"
To which this man said "Good, 'cos otherwise we would have let the tyres down".
Them's queer as folk, up north, but have a great sense of humour.

hahahaha

Funny! 100!
