Yeah, but Hull, Halifax and Hell are also in Yorkshire. (See the "Dalesman's Litany")
I, for one, intend to stick my head and guitar into every pub in Newport, Rhode Island (and maybe Middletown also) frequented by Irish- Americans, "Billy Goode's", "Aiden's", "One Pelham East","The Landing" The Irish American Club" and, yes, even the "Hibernian Hall" and at the top of my Lungs sing at lest two verses of "Rule Brittania" It aint an easy song to sing either. Well, Maybe I'll bring along Donna's Gibson guitar and leave my Martin at home.
Actually, this is one city where the different ethnic groups REALLY DO get along with eachother. I'll probably get a standing ovation. (?)
