@rongtw As one who was born within the sound of York Minster Bells, and less than 2 miles from "The Knavesmire"  ( York Race course to those not knowing ).and Terry`s Chocolate factory....  ( thank you Auntie for the "reject bags"  of chocs at Christmas and Birthdays ! )..

.I  think I can claim to be a True Yokshuman !.

I was born in Bridlington on the Yorkshire coast.

@shutter I also remember the bags of reject chocolates. A friend used to bring them for us. I seem to remember ours came from Rowntree's.

@artmo Yes indeedy.... another Auntie worked there ! .. I preferred Terry`s chocolates though.. One of my Grandfather`s worked at the Carriage and Wagon Works in York,  as a cabinet maker... ( all the posh woodwork in the carriages )...  Love Brid for the hols...

A friend of mine worked at the Bassett (Liquorice Allsorts) factory.

I soon learned of the benefits of Liquorice on the bowels

Certainly agree Yorkshire has a lot to offer, folk can be a bit secretive there as I have often asked about the tea plantations but all you get in return is a smile.

For tea you need to look in Harrogate https://www.yorkshiretea.co.uk/

@rongtw Yeah, but..... Don`t go to Betty`s   .... it`s expensive in there...  !

The fishing's good in Yorkshire too, I can vouch for that.

Ah the Yorkshire Belle, I remember it well. Always a treat to cruise along the cliffs to Bempton and Flamborough Head.

Although I was born in Brid I actually grew up in Flamborough and returned there each summer when my family moved south.
