You just have to accept that you're amongst the lucky few in this World to know what Sheffield is like and take it from there when you're slumming it in any other part of the World.

Sheffield - I used to drive the 76 Bus from Ecclesfield into the City Centre.

I will 5th that. If we ever do win the lottery we are moving the whole family over there for 6 months of the year, I would say the summer 6 months but as we know Sheffield has at most 2 weeks of proper summer...

Re: Who is from Yorkshire?
As far as I know it was started by the Eastfield crowd. They used to call us Brighouse Bags as we walked to school in our uniforms. That was when we walked up to Finkil Street for the first two years. Then it was the bus into Brighouse down to the main school and we didn't see them anymore. The name stuck though. Sometimes we walked into Brighouse to save the bus money .......... until those Ker-Chings got invented.
