Title: They're bred tough in Yorkshire
Post by: Liz 101 on August 16, 2009, 21:29:18 PM
It's been quite a weekend for multi eventers born & bred in Yorkshire: yesterday Alistair Brownlee, from Leeds, tore the field apart at the world series triathlon in Hyde Park & over the past 2 days, Jessica Ennis, from Sheffield, has lead from start to finish in the heptathlon at the World Champs in Berlin.

Two fantastic achievements many congratulations to both ;)

Trouble is Jukey and Tan - this thread is about Yorkshire people and I don't think there are that many in out team at the moment.

Great results for the multi eventers though!!

Not sure where you are coming from Sandgrounder - maybe you have been away too long as Scunny is and always has been in Lincolnshire:D

Google is obviously several years out of date, Humberside (North or South)ceased to exist around 15 years ago :o South Humberside became N Lincolnshire & the north bank East Yorkshire. As a fellow Tyke JB you should hang your head:D
