Hanging Out With Kevin in Yorkshire

Hanging Out With Kevin in Yorkshire

Well, not really, but we have been watching the BBC/PBS series, Last Tango in Halifax,which is shot there, so I think of him often.

It's a beautiful series, that has garnered many awards. If you have Netflix, and like a lively dramedy with great actors, you must put this on your watch list.

Shows how carefull thar needs to be wit facebook mularky.
I used to work in Halifax quite a bit, and fished for years with the Brighouse team just down the road.
I was North of England manager based a few miles from Halifax, at a place known locally as cleckhuddersfax.
Between cleckheaton, halifax and huddersfield.
The Brontes of Haworth is close to there.
Lovely to see You post here Rose.

I flunked Facebook, Kev. It's just not my cup o' the all-purpose Yorkshire remedy!

I do love hearing the Yorkie accents, though. Yours shines through in your writing, but to hear them spoken takes me back to my days as a country child in the deep south. Many of the older people spoke in the same manner having learned it from their grands and greats who immigrated to the Carolinas.

Many of them became Appalachian mountain folk, for a while. Some remained in the mountains, others migrated southward in search of good farming land. Wherever they went, they carried their strong speech patterns with them, or at least they did, until the ubiquitous Television began to smooth them out. One would be hard pressed to hear them there now.

BTW, the fund you are looking for was mentioned in this sub at:

Cheers Rose.
I still don't know anything about if a fund was ever started?
My Yorkshire senses are sensing a distraction been unrolled since Bob a job started posting certain things.

Where does Linda get information about any monies raised etc?

Presumably from this:
My wife and I (with wordsmith help from others, of course) have started an Indigeogo campaign to raise money to continue this line of research.
