Yorkshire Variant

[Suranjeep]

Seriously. Being reported by Sky.

Maybe this one is found in tea.

The whippets are running riot on the m62 what can you do.

Finally! A no-nonsense, speak-as-you-mean variant.

Not like those soft, southern variants!

@joystir59

It won't spread, we don't give owt for nowt here.

Happen your reet... 'Welcome to York where the chocolates chunky and the Covid's flunky'

@lightand

No idea why a Yorkshire variant seems like a joke[I am sure it isnt] when a Kent variant seemed quite reasonable.

Because it's the old joke, innit. Watch Lancashire bring out one now lol

@j712adrian

Ah, the Yorkshire Variant which causes a sticky feeling in the pocket, thus making the extraction of your purse/wallet from it virtually impossible.

Tragic.

Yes and it is disproportionately infecting men causing them to shout out “ow much” in a loud voice. There’s nothing as tight as a Yorkshire man!

Obviously if Lancashire get their own varient ,it will be bigger and better than Yorkshire's 😂

This thread is absolutely brilliant and has cheered me up after a really shitty day. Who else read the first few pages in a strong Yorkshire accent in their head?

@x2boys

Nope, they'll just THINK it's better than Yorkshire's

@RhubarbTea don't be daft that's like saying Lancashire hotpot is better than Yorkshire pudding. Fighting talk 🤣

Sorry rhubarb I meant to tag @x2boys there 🤣

@ThreeLocusts

Fascinating thread. Can someone explain the 'bah gum' pun? I'm not a native speaker.

@ThreeLocusts Eeh bah gum is an old Yorkshire exclamation phrase. So the comment saying the variant would be administered "bah gum" was just a play on that

Brilliant thread ,cheered me reet up ,we all know Lancashire,s better than yorkshire though 😉

A special SAGE meeting has been held today to discuss the Yorkshire variant.

Stay out of crowds, keep t' social distancing... Beware the COVID lads...

It's serious, a thruple mutation.
The Colliery brass bands have all been put on stand by.

[quote Ifailed]Let's just hope none of those infected decide to travel to London.

Too late. My best friend has just arrived from Yorkshire to stay with me in London Hopefully they'll close the borders so she has to stay for months

Reports coming in of severe delays on the M62 as desperate Yorkshire folk flee down south ...

They aren't fleeing.
That's our border force.

Warning to those trying to sneak over the Southern border to steal our variant... We have Polar Bears in Yorkshire.

And ferrets down our trousers.

Tha'll not ere Yorkshire folk complaining, get thi sen down t't pub and have a pint a tetley's. That'll sithee reet.

As much as I'd love this thread to end up in MN classics I think it's unlikely 🤣

Wow, does it have a flat cap rather than spikes on this virus 🙄

So many variants it will be a test to see if the vaccine works for them all

Ahh loving this post while supping me Yorkshire Tea.
