mick you have it good
when i went to chorlton the other week i was surprised how un-diverse it was compared to luton
thing is down here areas are becoming ghettos,so you have pakistani areas,polish areas,chinese areas,russian areas
and most importantly
very few mix anymore

i can hear you now Dave `Get offer my land`
Spoke to Haggi a couple of times and could really do with subtitles (sorry haggi i dont think i got back to you regarding the town hall job).
Spent many a happy hour trying to understand Mr Lout, it does get easier around midnight when stella slows him down a bit.

heresy davey!
i never touch stella
i am fine with most uk accents except the deep west country, and the far north eat
the only accent that completely baffles me is donegal ,a lot of plasterers in luton are from co.donegal and it is impossib;le to understand them in conversation
"what about yourself?" "by-bye-by-bye-byeee-by-by"
LOL

I uped sticks and moved down here last year (London Village) from Leeds but originally a 'Dee Dar' from Sheffield. My accent is my biggest asset, find I ham it up a bit for the natives
Im thankfully that the northern accent is generally held in high regard being honest an' all Cant think what these southern contractors have been doing down here to loose favour!
Met a French lass down here and she stands and stares in utter wonderment when I talk...still cant understand a bloody word I say!!

Not me lads, that's black country. How about "stop'n'gooze" for traffic lights, got told that one by a guy I stopped to ask for directions in Gornal(part of Dudley), needless to say I drove off looking for what I thought was a pub called the "stopen Goose", which I never found, I had to stop an Asian taxi driver to find someone I could understand!!!:p
