'Ow much?

Edna and Mary say cheers! F'those of you who've seen us ont' telly, you'll know we're two of the thriftiest grannies this side ot' Pennines. We love a bargain and live by the phrase 'waste not want not.' We like good old fashioned values in this crazy modern world of bottled water and t'interweb, int that right Edna?

Well, yes, except some of us think the internet is useful, Mary. It means we can look in detail at why Yorkshire Water provides great value for money. Good for those of us with more brain than brass. I'm definitely one of those, Edna! I've got a nose for a bargain, y'know, and I can smell the freebies at the bottom of this page.

Watch us ont' telly

All about us!

Freebies

Blummin' 'eck, Mary, we're famous! Here's our advert off the telly. I'm rate proud of it and we did 'ave a jolly good laugh making it.

Did we 'eck as like, Edna. You might 'av done lass, but it wasn't you head-to-toe in cold water. For me it wa' like a Boxing Day swim on the beach at Bridlington!

Stop feeling so sorry for yourself, Mary. It got you ont' telly didn't it? And not many folk in town can say that!

'Ay up ducks, I'm Edna. Married to our George for 52 years, I've had two young 'uns by him, Mark and Nicola, who've given me three beautiful grandchildren.

Although 75, I feel nowt but a day over 18 and still get out to me aqua aerobics class every Wednesday. I love a spot of bargain hunting, and wit'money I save I love a flutter on the gee-gees and enjoy a gin and tonic (or three) down t'local bingo hall.

I call me self a silver surfer as I love updating me Twitter and Facebook and like to stay up to date with what's going on. My best friend is Mary, who I've known since we were little 'uns. She's daft as a brush but I love her all the same.

Ello loves, I'm Mary. Nar then, I hope thee's right. You're a cheeky one Edna - you should know be now to respect your elders!

T'be fair, I've been told a few times that I'm neither use nor ornament, but our Eric loves me all the same... although I sometimes think he loves his pigeons more! They do keep him from under me feet so I get some peace and quiet indoors t'do me knitting and watch a good old black and white love story (speaking of romance I do like that lovely Paul Hudson the weatherman - shhh!)

My terrier Timmy has a good nose for when supper's on the table, and I've a good nose for a bargain. Our lad, Brian (he's an accountant), comes for tea once a week and we talk about the best way to save the pennies.
I'm not the best with mod-cons, but Edna is always there to explain things to me - she once caught me trying to use my computer mouse on the floor like a sewing machine pedal. By 'eck, we did laugh!

Mary was wittering t'other day about how "Y'don't get owt f'nowt," so I told her Yorkshire Water customers actually do. Here are a few freebies and there'll be more over the next few months so keep your eyes open.
