I wasn't sure if you'd even know who Boycs was. My Dad named our first cat after him. Trying to get him to come in at night made me feel like a Russian Olympic athlete

I had a cat called Rioja for a bit
She was pretty difficult to call without sounding a twat. And a high-functioning alcoholic twat at that.

Well yes
But none of the above lends itself to knowing what made him famous BEFORE beating his wife... oh sod it, I concede it was a daft thing to say. Now take your pyrrhic victory and BEGONE

he's a Yorkshire, wife-beating cunt. Yorkshire is, essentially, to its denziens, a different country. So the "northern" part is superfluous, unless referring to someone from North Yorkshire, which the charming behatted racist is definitely not.

Yorkshire is more a state of mind than a place
A state of mind with clearly defined borders over which its indiginous population are loath to cross, admittedly

My Dad's from Halifax so I'm allowed to have a pop
You should check out Newport State of Mind on YouTube, it's surprisingly funny
