Yorkshire Airlines ad - great!

Found a sample of Yorkshire dialect in the form of a spoof advert for Yorkshire Airlines--very funny as well as instructive!!

Er, well, not exactly realistic Yorkshire dialect, as that's a clip from a comedy series by a couple of Cockneys, putting on spoof Yorkshire accents, but the mushy peas in catering looked realistic enough.

I live about 10 miles from the Yorkshire border (on the right side, the Lancastrian one) so I have to be careful, in case there's a Tyke watching me.

& actually, Leeds Bradford Airport is a superb little International airport, strangely enough. If you don't mind taxiing off over a bridge over the M62, being surrounded by tykes eating pies with mint sauce, covered in tattoos (the tykes that is, not the pies).

I don't mind, because I can fly from there to Barcelona, Paris, Berlin, Prague, etc., for about 25 quid if I book cleverly ahead online & keep my gob shut so they don't know I'm from Lancashire.
I may be bonkers but at least I'm British.
