That’s one of the beautiful things about Barnsley - people just strike up a conversation.
Where else does that happen like it does in Barnsley???

I often go in to town Friday dinner time ish and buy a Chronicle and sit in a cafe and read it.
It’s rare if I don’t have a conversation with a complete stranger.
Today wasn’t a complete stranger - a guy who also sits in the lower west stand - didn’t know him - but he’d seen me in there.
Sat int cafe having a cuppa and a chat about last season and this one coming up.

Same happens when I go into Tarn at night.
People just talk in Barnsley.
It’s great.
