A lot of people here do also. The Tees was always the border in the north. Its so confusing round here though. There are two Yorkshire borders within half a mile in either direction of my house, one south of here and one north! It goes all over the bloody place.

It was quite funny when the signs kept getting "altered" by disgruntled die hard locals with nothing better to do.

I was surprised to find Middlesbrough was still Yorkshire, I always though it was geordieland.

Its 40+ miles south of Geordie land. Geordies will think The Boro is darn sarf! I think its been in Yorkshire, Teesside, Cleveland and now Yorkshire again. Nobody wants it. :D

Funny that, N. Ireland (13500 sq km) is often quoted as being about the same size as Yorkshire (14850 sq km 1831, then 15700 in 1901, and now 11900 in 1991).

Our border wanders all over the place and you can cross the border multiple times in a few miles.
The die hard locals keep altering the signs and trying to incorporate us into the Republic.

We now seem to have a border in the Irish Sea, and yours is in the river Tees.

Only differences that I can see are that you have 5,250,000 population and are all tight as a ducks ***(*) ass or arse you decide.

We only have a population of 1,800,000 we are not tight but on the other hand we have Trev!

Ill never be a Yorkshire man though. Not only because nobody really knows if I actually live in Yorkshire but mainly because I wasn't born there and haven't lived there for ten generations. Interesting about population stats though. Up here at the very top of Yorkshire, Teesdale which is actually in country Durham anyway is the second least populated region in England only beaten by nearby Eden in Cumbria but then get down to York or Leeds and its heaving.
