Subject: RE: England's National Musical-Instrument?
You know, I've lived in M'cr for 25 years and been married to a Prestonian for most of that time, and I still don't know how to pronounced Irlam's o'th' Height (or the similar placename involving Besses and a Barn). Is it:

Irlams ut Height

Irlams uh' Height (same thing with a glo'al stop)

Irlams uth Ight

or what?
