with the current arguments about english language: this is the vernacular of a true born & bred englishman, some of us dont even speak english in england:.
what slang words are common in your area?.
http://www.virtualbrum.co.uk/slang.htmbrummie and black country slang word and phrases.
How beist me lovers,Im not even going to start on this one,as its time for me fishalots,and I think I have caused quite enough bafflement lately.
Keep yer sacks tucked,
Rich.
back off will ya?!!
or at least try picking on someone else for a change...i actually happen to agree w/wednesday about people who serve being at least be able to communicate with you as the customer...i don't speak laotian, chineese, vietnameee, any african language, and just enough spanich to get me in trouble or slapped eheh... yesterday i went in to get a postal stamp from 7-11...well the poor soul (he looked vietnameese probably just started and he couldn't get was i was asking for whatsoever...i asked about three times then just smiled and walked out...i went accross the street where the guy from lebbanon knew exactly what i wanted and gladly sold me stamps...i actually like going there better cuz its his store and not another corporate tool...(i want to be my own corporate tool) eheheheh.
i deal with it every day and lemme telll you sumpin...people who want to learn english and thrive here will, those that don't will keep serving you at thankless jobs all over the country...almost all of my foreign students gladly take esl classes (notice: english as a second language) that's right...they learn the other language to make their learning experience easier, which includes interacting and being a part of our culture, and existence in our country better...not only does it make their lives better/easier, but it makes my job and existence easier.
Couldnt agree more Xenawarrior.
Cheers,
Rich.
many people who drive have stickers riddled all over their cars.
something familiar among the younger crowd is to have stickers of the aftermarket products that they have used (or claimed to be using) in their cars.
parents with smart kids have "my son/daughter are on the honor role" while parents of dumb children have "my kid beat up your honor student".
Keep fit,eat healthy,die anyway.
Cheers,
Rich.

Take care,

you know you are a bad driver.. when.
you buy replacement airbags in party-sized packs of 50.. to save time, your business cards are printed with your name, address, phone number and insurance details.. hitchhikers who see you slow down start frantically erasing the destination on their cardboard sign.. to save time, you no longer book you driving lessons in blocks of 10 you book driving tests in blocks of 10.. your rear tyres are in mint condition.. they rarely touch the ground.. youve never been stopped by a police car.
they cant catch you.. your passengers never play i-spy on long journeys.
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A BAD DRIVER.. WHEN
You buy replacement airbags in party-sized packs of 50.
To save time, your business cards are printed with your name, address, phone number and insurance details.
Hitchhikers who see you slow down start frantically erasing the destination on their cardboard sign.
To save time, you no longer book you driving lessons in blocks of 10 – you book driving tests in blocks of 10.
Your rear tyres are in mint condition.. they rarely touch the ground.
You’ve never been stopped by a police car. They can’t catch you.
Your passengers never play I-Spy on long journeys. None of them are brave enough to open their eyes.
All the traffic police in your neighbourhood have asked for transfers to a less traumatising job on the murder squad.
You’ve had your car for five years, but only discovered last week that it isn’t an automatic.
The emergency equipment in your trunk consists of a flashlight, hazard sign, ice scraper, flippers, scuba gear and a parachute.
There’s so much oil leaking on to your drive that President Bush is planning to invade it.
Your car is painted a different colour each side to confuse witnesses at accident scenes.
You call your breakdown service and they claim you’ve got a wrong number or pretend to be a pizza restaurant.
You wear a different pair of glasses when your driving. Not for medical purposes, just as a disguise.
During your driving test, the examiner stopped you halfway through and offered to call you a taxi.
Your passengers are issued with a lifejacket and safety instructions.
You recently modelled for a new range of crash- test dummies.

i have brought back memories that will last me a long long time,and have never met so many loveable loonies,in the same place at the same time,in my life,.

Animal,I had the same , but I think I said yes and no in the right places he he,if I didnt,ooops.
Wild Horses,now I could get myself into a lot of trouble giving you an answer,dont take that too literally,but one thing the English and the Scots are good at is taking the rise out of each other,in a very friendly way.
So to answer your question,,,,,,men in skirts,,,,.
I will now duck for cover,and wait for the fallout.
Cheers,
Rich.
