There are many regional accents in different parts of the UK. Some of them I think our American cousin's might have trouble understanding. Lol |

I watched some British TV and I had to really concentrate on what some say. I got kind of used to even the strong accents over time. Some of the sayings/slang that I haven't heard in the US stuck with me. "Can't be bothered" is the one I use the most. Maybe others say it in the US, but I don't hear it and it sounds more like what I'm trying to convey than any other word combination I could think of. OK, I'll bugger off now and find a fit bird to snog. Not really, I just wanted to say that.  |

There's a couple of you guys on here that like to drive on the wrong side of the road and spell tire wrong. At least we can pronounce aluminium correctly. I live on the South coast. Haha, I love this bit of British trivia! Aluminium...anyone can pronounce that word. Aluminum...anyone can pronounce that as well. Which word is correct? According to British history, as told by Cambridge University scholars: The correct word, by proper Latin language rules is Aluminum, not Aluminium. The short story: The compound was invented by a Brit and properly named Aluminum. However, the British Scientific Press, longing for a breakthrough to expound about, deemed the name not sexy enough in print. Thus the modified British version of the real scientific word. Aluminum! It makes for a great bar bet! |

Wigan it,s just about halfway between Liverpool (scoucers) and Manchester (mancs). Here in Thailand, the Premier League is tops! Actually, all of South East Asia. We are lucky enough to see nearly every Premier League game. Bundasliga and La Liga top matches also. We are family of split allegiance. The two eldest, long time Reds fanatics...the younger gen are ManUniacs. You? Three Sisters must be fun!! |
