Here down home in de good 'ole U of K, there's an almost universal tendency to add superfluous words to most sentences.

E.g

'that was a great meal, that was'

'he's a brilliant player, he is'


& other add ons, such as

'I saw him in the gym the other day, know what I mean, y'know what i'm saying'
