Some great words and examples of what Darren, Vic, Stead & I have to put up with here. 


Try this:  'Coors I luvs im, ee buys I chips'  or  'Ise goen on me olidies next munf'  or even 'She ad a gurt lush pitcher on err wall'

Arrgh! I was watching Sid & Nancy last night and there was one part where Sid (or one of Sid's friends? I was half asleep) came out with this one word that I'd never heard.... so I figured, hey, I'll check online when I wake up... and now I can't remember what it was


Darn your other side of the pond slang!

Was it 'Gerfunkle'?  Or perhaps 'Nandiprone'?

Nope.  Bristolian.  From Bristol.  It's honestly one of the worst accents ever.  Makes everyone sound like a scummer.


(I don't come from Bristol I have to hastily add!)

Well, I caught the Bristol part. Didn't think each city had their own dialect...


Surely there's no town called Cockney?

Sometimes even a tiny village can have it's own dialect.

Cockney is London-speak, mate.  Like this.


No accounting for the work 'kankwurzil', though.

Ok, what about a bit of Dundonian (as in from Dundee)

What does this mean:

"Twa hoat pies an an ingin 'in an aw"

Any takers?

To be fair - Hengle has to put up with this local sh1t3 nonsense too and he's welsh so he already has a disadvantage...
