Brilliant turnout, it's making me strangely proud and emotional and beginning to wish I'd gone now!
Yes, Me too on both counts. But I think the British do put a lot into events.
Aren't you Sheffield way EC? Could go tomorrow?
I am in Sheffield City Centre (which is holding a lot of events - and very good they are too). Not having a car would limit me to public transport and I doubt I could get a decent place in the Sheffield area, especially as I will be watching the Formula One and it clashes (I'm a bgt F1 fan).
Funnily enough I used to live very close to Côte de Jenkin Road. Having to go up and down it regularly. It's really steep and I remember once my Dad's Reliant three wheel car struggled to get up it (I was scared).
Also Côte de Jenkin Road sounds very posh - it's not.

Who/what are you questioning, Joe?
If it's all in French it's got to be correct surely? Can't give them the impression we are uneducated.

Haven't seen anyone yet, was watching out for friends who were going to Aysgarth, then cycling across to see them again at Leyburn, but no luck, missed Aysgarth(ad's?) and Leyburn ram jam. Next looking for friends @ Blue Lion
I've spent a very pleasant hour admiring the form of these chaps!

GJ, I saw Mark Johnston's yard, but commentators didn't mention it
Dear old Richard getting a mention there
Me dad would have told you all of the trainers!
It's Mass-ham! Not Mash-am!

The commentators can't manage the English pronunciation of our villages, or perhaps they're doing it in French: Middleham Masham

Tomorrow you may catch a glimpse of Le Chateaux de Enthusiastic Contrafibularities!
Commentators are amazed at how many places in Yorkshire have French names! Apparently.
Lots of VIPs at West Tanfield and Harrogate!
They should have a pint of Golden Sheep at this point.
Commentators' just been told it's Massam and making a right point of telling us that!

Or a Brymor ice-cream
That old bugger Boycott pops up all over the place
All this talk of Ale! I wonder if they'll get sent some free samples?
Wonder if they'll mention Taylor's coffee in 30+ Km?
Betty's got a mention last night.
