GUEST,John from Kemsing Folklore: Who says 'Can I come with?' (65* d) RE: Folklore: Who says 'Can I come with?' 17 Feb 12

Not so long ago, before today`s "estuary English" was in vogue with some people it was not unusual in the East and South East to hear conversations similar to this,as follows:-

Her:- "Where have you been then?"
Him:- "Well I`ve gone to see him, didn`t I"
Her:- " What did he say then?"
Him:- " Well, he`s gone, "If I don`t get the money he`ll sue me", didn`t he"
Her:- " What did you do then?"
Him:- " Well, I told him what to do, didn`t I"
Her:- " What did he do then?"
Him:- "Well, he`s gone and whacked me, hasn`t he"
Etc.,etc.

Heaven knows how that final confirmation ever arose.
