Yorkshire. It truly is God's Own County, isn't it?
The land of Greatest Living Yorkshireman™ Geoffrey Boycott, Sean Bean, Yorkshire Tea/Dales/PUDDING and "Cock" as a term of endearment - of course it has its own day in the calendar.
Perhaps the single best thing about the region? Its humour. Drier than a kilo bag of porridge oats, the Yorkshire wit is self-deprecating and chest-thumpingly patriotic in equal measure.
Social media's outdone itself this year, and you can see the very best Yorkshire Day offerings below (although users from Lancashire may wish to look away now).
