I Spy
A Bradford couple are playing ‘I Spy’ in the kitchen.
"I spy with my little eye something beginning with T," said the husband.
"Tea pot?" said the lass. "Nay Lass!"
"Tea towel?" said the lass. "Nay Lass!"
"Toaster?" said the lass. "Nay Lass!" he replied drumming his fingers on the work top.
"Oh I don’t know." She said at long last. "I give in!"
"It’s easy!" he said, "It's t’oven!"

Eeh Bah Gum!

T’winters coming

Hands on thighs
A Yorkshire aerobics instructor said to his class, “Hands on thighs!” So they class did… None of them could see a thing.

Pie on a clock
What do you call a pie on a clock? ‘Summat to eight!’

Mamma Mia
Mamma Mia: classic ABBA song or a Yorkshire kid telling his mum he’s arrived?

It’s t’roof not t’wheels
The Lurry Drahver who was spotted frantically chiselling away at the brickwork after his lorry got stuck while passing through a tunnel ?
“Why don’t you let the air in your tyres down a little?” asked a friendly passer by.
“Nay love,” replied the Yorkshireman, “it’s t’roof that won’t go under, not t’wheels”

She Were Thine
A Yorkshireman’s wife sadly passes away. He decides to have the words ‘She Were Thine’ engraved on her headstone.
He calls the mason, explains what he wants, then goes to see the stone a few days later. He takes one look and, to his horror, finds the mason has engraved ‘She Were Thin’.
He yells: “The blummin’ ‘e’ is missing! Where’s the ‘e’? Tha’s left the blummin’ ‘e’ out lad!”
The mason apologises profusely, and assures the widower it’ll be right on the day.
The day of the funeral comes. The mourners leave the church and head out to the graveyard.
There, in the glow of the winter sun, is the pristine headstone. Upon it inscribed:
“Eeh, She Were Thin.”
