  • Wath-Upon-Dearne! It's been a long time since the last upload, but it's like riding a bike - you hope you never forget. I've been waiting too long for this - let us finally begin our South Yorkshire expedition!
    I'm cycling to every large town near me in order of ascending distance, and rating them - with the end goal of reaching Flamborough!

    Wow!!! As someone from Wath-Upon-Dearne, I really enjoyed this. (I pronounce it Woth ;) ) Especially appreciated the "Morris" dancing moment. Sadly, the library featured behind you is set for demolition, from what I understand. Appreciated the buses feature, too, lol! Most I've seen in ages in Wath!

      Great comment! It's always good to see a local stumble across my stuff 😀 "Woth" was a fun place to see!

    Why Wath ... It's just a part of Barnsley imo. It had 3 train stations too

      Aha, I select locations based on Google Maps - I'm doing every named place which appears on a certain zoom level. Wath did feel like it had its own identity when I went

    Abingdon has a similar bun throwing tradition done on years of special interest to the royal family (Queen's 70th Jubilee and King's Coronation are two recent ones)

      Oo interesting! I was in Abingdon near Christmas, and a spontaneous play erupted in a pub I was in. There's something going on in that town...

      @@stpirate89 Crown and Thistle. We'd just left a conference and there were probably 20-30 of us crammed in there - must have been the biggest crowd they've ever had! They said it's an old Abingdon tradition, and I think one was the local town crier.
