Yorkshire Day 2013




We think Yorkshire day should be celebrated every day of the year but we will have to settle for just the one day,  1st August!

Best place on the map!



To celebrate everything which is Yorkshire we decided to have a bit of fun in the office today and raise money for charity in the process.


We wore our finest Yorkshire clobber (Unfortunatley we couldn't bring our Whippets into the office! )

Yorkshire and Proud


Our 'Yorkshire Goodies for sale' trolley went down a storm. This included Yorkshire mixture sweets, buns and cakes! Crackers, Yorkshire chutney and Wensleydale cheese!
..........Of course, not forgetting the FREE Yorkshire Tea !

Our good old Yorkshire tea


Here's just a  few photos  of some members of the team in the Sidhil office...
