What are you all like!!! It's our national anthem in Yorkshire - On Ilkla Moor bah't 'at, and one of the verses goes...
Then we shall go an' ate oop ducks On Ilkla Moor baht 'at Then we shall go an' ate oop ducks Then we shall go an' ate oop ducks On Ilkla Moor baht 'at On Ilkla Moor baht 'at On Ilkla Moor baht 'at When Nicki said "I would have come and fed the ducks", it reminded me of Ilkla Moor baht 'at and it fits in nicely 'an all (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Home rule for Yorkshire (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yay.gif) |

QUOTE(barry-clari @ Apr 3 2008, 09:24 PM) They kept that quiet (cancelling it). That's good because I have to be at Embankment by 1pm on Wednesday, and I was wondering how to do it (walk from Liverpool Street was the likely answer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)) |

I was born and brought up in sight of Ilkla Moor, from the Keighley end. To be accurate, the whole moor area is known as Rombalds Moor, a legendary giant Rombald lived there, and there is a statue of him in Keighley centre.
Ilkey Moor is really just a small part of Rombalds Moor on the Ilkley side, but the whole moor of Rombalds Moor is generally referred to locally as Ilkley Moor. The complete verses are:- 1. Wheer 'as tha bin sin' ah saw thee. On Ilkla Moor baht 'at..... etc 2. Tha's barn ter cacth thi deeath o' cowd. On ................. 3. Then we shall 'ave ter bury thee. On.................. 4. Then t'worms'll come and eyt thee up. On........... 5. Then t'ducks'll come and eyt up t'worms. On................ 6. Then we shall come and eyt up t'ducks. On............ 7. Then we shall all 'ave etten thee !. On......... |

I've just filled out a load of forms...
...but seeing as they were all for forum events or other music courses, it was quite enjoyable! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
