ArchivesRe: Accuracy the last word
in reply to a message by Jim Young
I know where Hull is thank you, the birth place and still one of several homes of the former Deputy Prime minister, John Prescott, a fine specimen of a man!
You're obviously mates with Marc and are blinded to his arrogance, after all Crapola is rather puErile, is it not? Oh, and thanks for using the opportunity to point out the spelling mistake, must make you feel very proud and smug, well done old boy!
The point I was making Jim is that because I am local to Calderdale I know the origins of the word Murgatroyd, we have the proof, the evidence, whatever you want to call it. I don't say that an outsider can't have an opinion, I meant if the research had been thorough then he would have found the facts out as well.But facts are facts and because of my location and my knowledge of local history and dialect, I happen to know that this is a fact. Nothing to do with I'm a Yorkshire man.
I don't see that I fit into a stereotype at all, I think that's your problem not mine, I'm no more proud of my Yorkshire roots as I am at been a Human being. I'm sorry if my comments made you blush with embarrashment at being a fellow 'Yorki'. You liberal elitists are so embarrassed of your own, ask yourself, would I still fit into this negative stereotype if my opinions were coming from the perspective of a gay man or a different ethnicity? Probably not! I didn't say 'your not from Yorkshire, what would you know' did I? If my stance against a know all with a upto 5 ono whatever dictionaries upsets you, well tough.
You have to accept that contempary wisdom on all things shifts with new research uncovering new facts and shedding new light on old subjects. And that Dictionaries and history books take time to change.Remember, despite appearances, Hull wasn't built in a day
Open your mind Jim and read once more Marc's comments and if you are going to respond,do so with a more balanced and objective approach.
By the way I bow down to your superior knowledge on the Ingy thingy and concede your opinion is probably correct, as you do seem to know what you are on about with regards to that. One all mi finkss
P.S I've not been circumsised in any area, cheeky!
