My Middle Name

This is possibly a useless piece of information, but in Yorkshire where I was born we only have an alphabet of twenty five letters, as all true Yorkist will tell you there is no ‘H’ in our dialect which is a problem for me, ‘Harry Horsman’ So my middle name is Joe short for Joseph. ‘Told you, a useless piece of information.’ © Harry J Horsman 2012
