Oh my gosh--I love this, Martin. York is one of my favorite cities on the planet. I have been to the train museum, love Yorkshire tea (and still miss it), love Betty's Tea Room (have stood for hours in line to get in there--worth it), went to the Viking's Museum, you've even got the Shambles! So much fun to see. I don't know the story about the stork, but am going to look it up. :)
