Subject: RE: req: Our Sal's New Bonnet (Yorkshire monologue)
my Grandad told me this in the 1970's, he lived in Crewe, not far from the Derbyshire border. it's great to see all the different variations

A sin ah Sal's new bonnit
Tis a reet un, no mistack
Wreath o' roses on it
An a feather, reet up back
Ah Sal went church on Sunday
An the people stood up an stared
An the parson said in is temper
'Tis a place of worship, not a fayre...'
At this ah Sal grew angry
And to the Parson said
'Shut thy clatter, thy with a bald ead
Nauwt on it, nauwt in,
Doth want a feather from my bonnit?'
