Whoa, Terry - "somewhat" is a noun meaning "something" (more-or-less), as well as an abverb meaning "rather"; thsi usage is a bit archaic nowadays - except in the more civilised parts of the UK like Yorkshire and Staffordshire. As for "Norwich/porridge", I stand corrected - oh, the iniquities of a grammar school education! My in-laws come from Suffolk, which is fairly safe if you don't pronounce the "l".
