Subject: RE: BS: Rant... why don't people speak properly?
On accents, my father who is Norwich can refer to the London twang in some city people as "bastard cockney".

People can have trouble placing me. I was born in Shrewsbury, moved to N Wales when I was about 7. Tunbridge Wells when I was early teens. I think I'm a bit of a mixture.

On endings, people from Bangor (N Wales) can be referred to as "Bangor Ayes" as "Aye" can be added to the end of sentences.
