No goddam fear matey!
York is still in the old County of York & Ainsty, not in any of the Ridings!  Wink
Although my village is in the North Riding.  Smiley

Re: Spot the deliberate mistake

I know York, very well,  I was born there...
Just thought that NEW York, would be in the East Riding, because of the time zone ! . Mind you,... Either one is not that far away from Sheffield ! ! .
