Brilliant, hope he does it. You can't keep us Yorkshire men down

Could be useful if you fancied a pizza in the middle of a glue-up.

Regards Keith

Nice to know......... but he was born in Grimsby, surely you don't want grimsby as part of yorkshire

 

[david123]

Your right mate but if he is a super hero, we won't split hairs. :lol:
Morning Keith, it might end up all over his face on the way back at that speed lol

Hey hands off our Guy! :lol: What's up with Grimsby then? :lol:

 

[david123]

Same as " what's up with Keighley" I was born there so it can't be that bad. When people asked me where I came from and I said Keighley they would say "never mind lad", but I had the moors, mostly to myself, which I loved, I ran for miles out there, brilliant.

Done a bit of fell running around there, grand place.

Several of my ancestors (Gales, Coverdales, Kenningtons) came from Grimsby!
