as a very proud Lancashire lass, and an even prouder Canadian ............


I really don't understand this thread ......

......... at least I don't understand why Gins is upset at the turn it has taken, except that it gave her an opening to bash Cameron ....... and that of course would have meant it was a political thread and not a very interesting one on accents and which or who is better than another

Hi Lolly - good to see you posting and I hope you are well. Anytime you are down my way, my door will be open and the kettle on, in case you pop by ;-) :-D

PS Just give me a couple of hours' warning, so I can tidy up and clean the loo :-D

Good for you Wend, I was hoping you'd pop up. My offspring are all Southerners and I would resent anyone thinking they were not
friendly. You have to take people as you find them and I lived down Sarf for a good part of my life and they are as friendly as everyone else. I look forward to going back there now I have lost my lovely Norfolk husband.

:-) :-)

Gins,

Is your comment about 'We.....' In response to Errol's comment that was called for review? I don't know why he was reported and I am not sure what RR means - Response recalled?

Anyway, Lollybasher and Wend, I agree with your comments.

Well, I'm a Southerner and proud of it, but I've met some fantastic people on GR who are from up north and I'm proud of those friends too. They were all such great company and it was such a pleasure to *get on* with eachother in the way we did and hopefully will continue to do so, regardless of where we come from in the country <3

The conversation on this thread is a natural progression that would occur face to face. Topics constantly change during our meeting with a group of people who are friends. If one person were to be pedantic, they would soon be on their own. That is a fact of life. As for some people making reference to others being nice to each other, well that is known as being civilised.

Joy forgets I am not a Norfolk Dumpling but a Geordie who gets her accent in full swing when I meet someone who can understand me. Hence her little joke.

P.S. Joy .

Give that lovely Stray a big hug from me xx


:-D :-D :-D

I mentioned the 'We' comment earlier

What was that about, who is 'We'

Think about it from a psychology view point

Freudian slip over a dinner table or a drink in the commons bar?

Blimey I have been reported at such a late time and for no intelligent reason

Slap my hands. Ouch.

It's the way the thread turns and who really cares about what Cameron says It's what he, and other MPs, think they can get away with we should be worried about.

While he is thinking about where people are from it means he's not thinking of anything worse that could get the country in trouble.

This thread is about the ignorance of Cameron

Not spelling mistakes, not accents and not pedantic remarks
