An interesting site that contains verse written by local folk in regional dialect,

You can listen to site founder Kevin Wilde reading many of the poems aloud,

also contains a dictionary of words and also some Yorkshire recipes dating back to the thirties.

I now live in Cornwall,but shortly we will be moving back to the area.

I once saw a list of sheffieldeese sayings years ago, i wondered if anyone might have a

copy so i can show it to my Cornish friends, before i come home.

If so could it be e-mailed to me.

Thanks. Jack.
