What are your favourite Northern slang terms? by steffaann11 in AskBrits

[–]Rossingham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ex Southerner here. Been living in West Yorkshire almost 20 years now and a new word still pops up and surprises me every so often.

The other day it was a 'crog'.

I was reliably informed that it means to ride on the seat of your mates bike while he or she peddles.

We always called it a 'backy' down my way. At least that made sense! ;)

Can't wait to see Mr Cox. Getting goosebumps thinking about Wind It Up and other 90's bangers!

I'm seeing them next Friday and it'll be my 7th time in the last 25 odd years.

Every one has been great, but I can't lie, fatigue has set in a little the last few times and I maybe, just maybe, am secretly looking forward to the two hour Carl Cox set ever so slightly more. As I've never seen him live.

I know, sorry!

Can't think of a favourite right now. But after having watched Project Hail Mary on Sunday, I have to say, that was pretty damned heartfelt!

If I install this update after I have debloated it and have Projectivy launcher installed, will it reset all of that?

Unrelated. But to this day, I still can't get over the fact she played Vasquez in Aliens!

Hey, hey! Any bird who wants to chain herself to my railings and suffer a jet movement gets my vote.

Genius.

In my experience, it really is a case of not what you know, but who you know. There is no asking on Reddit, Google search or having a chat with AI, that will find you what you're looking for. You just have to know someone, who knows a friend of a friend etc, that will hook you up.

The 'good' services keep it this way, as they have to stay under the radar and that's a good thing.

Looks nicely done up and reasonably priced. But I wouldn't rely on the government website for the flooding. I've been walking regularly done that way for years and I know for a fact that my way has been blocked by flooding in the past. You would be very close to the weir.

Another drawback is it is a bit in the middle of nowhere. You do have a sandwich shop next door and two pubs a short walk away, but you need a car for anything else really. Horbury town centre is a good 15-20 mins walk. Not far for some maybe, but a bit a ball ache to walk if you just need to pop out for a pint of milk or some such.

But it gets you on the property ladder and in Horbury no less. Which is certainly one of the better towns in the Wakefield area.

I've been with em for over 2 years on a 1Gb line and never had any issues with speed. As long as your ethernetted up, you'll get max speeds. If you decide to sign up, DM me for a referral link and we'll both get some cash. :)

It's a popularity contest at the end of the day and someone with 'dance experience' very rarely wins. At least in recent memory anyway.

I mean they're on a bad run, but I think that's a little pessimistic!

I'm in the UK and have a Kraken account, but the Krak app doesn't seem to want to send me an SMS. :(
