It's Mother's Day on Sunday (March 6) — a whole day dedicated to showing your mum just how much she means to you.

And if you've got a Yorkshire Mum, you've got extra reason to celebrate, as we reckon Yorkshire mums are t'best in t'world.

From knowing how to make a proper cuppa to giving you money for spice and making sure you don't 'catch your death', here's why Yorkshire Mums deserve to be cheered this Sunday.

You know you've got a Yorkshire Mum when...

  • She makes the best Yorkshire puddings EVER. And you've tried to replicate them, but they collapsed and were a bit too chewy and you've decided it's just Mum-Magic that makes them so amazing.
  • You're not allowed to leave the house without a coat anytime between September and April. Because you'll catch your death. And you best take it off as soon as you come inside, or you won't feel the benefit.
  • She packs Yorkshire Tea in her holiday suitcase. Two weeks without a proper brew, are you mad? You think she's dotty at the time but when you get to enjoy a cup of Yorkshire Tea on the balcony of your hotel room you can't thank her enough.
  • She took you to Eureka as a kid to wear you out. And left you, happy as Larry, running around the kids-size Marks & Spencers.
  • She sneaked sweets into the cinema for you. Because she's not paying cinema prices, what a rip off! So you'd watch in anticipation as she opened her over-sized handbag to pass you a carton of juice and some corner shop sweets to enjoy with the film.
  • She introduced you to caravan holidays — and made it fun! Even if it was throwing it down and gale-force winds were shaking the caravan, she'd whip out a board game or a deck of cards to keep you entertained.

  • She took you to the seaside in the summer holidays — Whitby, Scarborough, Bridlington, Filey — she'd smother you in sun tan lotion then buy you fish and chips to eat on the beach after you've had a paddle in the sea.

  • She's tougher than your dad. Come on now folks, who's really head of the clan? Your dad may like to think he's in charge, but you can't mess with Yorkshire women.
