I advise you to take a look at the "Dialect" Page and take note that its all B*ll*cks. None of us speak like that

Yes, it's true. This was... oh, seven months ago. Just the fact that I still remember readong it shows how much of a shock it was (to see your local newspaper write about stupid things like that).
It couldn't have been front page news. I hope. Can't remember that much...

LOL! I've just realised. If you go on the http://www.mawdesley-village.co.uk site and go to the dialects page. If you go down to the word Buttery, it refers to my house "The Pantry".. LOL. Useless info, but just if you wanted to know

Well the Paper covers a few villages. It just seems that there was nothing more interesting than this in all of the villages [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Dammit! why do i have to live somewhere interesting like the outskirts of london. its always "crack addicts did this" and "young thugs beat up that" in my paper. why can't i ever have something boring like "mayor bought pond, whole town in uproar over whether he should buy green or blue gnome".
