Re: Moved: COST OF LIVING
People considering emigration might want to be aware of the supply chain issues concerning PC frozen Yorkshire puddings. They are not currently available. We had to make puddings from scratch.
and of course Yorkshire Biscuits.

You and I know all about this, but apparently some folk from Surrey think tea comes from abroad. Really! They'll be claiming that mulligatawny soup doesn't come from Ireland next.

More properly called Earl Grey's Monument, after the tea production facility under the centre of Toon.

Re: Moved: COST OF LIVING
BTW I may have to abandon my wiki virginity to correct the article on stottie cakes.
To stott does not mean to oscillate (far to many syllables for your average Geordie), it means to bounce.
Judy? This is your backyard.
