I refer you to my point a while back that MN is not a simulacrum of the UK. Doubly so in FWR.

I know...I know...

Family on both sides Manchester, Lancashire and surrounds for at least 5 generations and I couldn’t give a shit, frankly.

Shame we can’t do an audio comparison of how we would pronounce Bury, for that added Northern kudos…..

Insania Aestiva (Summer Madness)

Very Shakespearian. As a title.

Is that the campaign with dodgy pics of teenage girls ?

No. The one where they get to tell the media that they object to sexism in healthcare.

I like that, especially with the number of popes on this thread

Off down to that there London tomorrow. Does anyone have an opinion on Jesus Christ Superstar? Jesse Tyler Ferguson is Herod, and obviously Sam Ryder is Jesus. I've always wanted to see it.

Going to see the Hockney exhibition at the Serpentine north gallery.

Question : do you say 'bury a body' like you say Bury?

People who say Berry for either make my eyeballs twitch. Sorry ! But I also don't say it like you say it, I'm sure! I'm Burry.

placemats · 30/06/2026 18:15

It's Bury as in bury a body.

And scone rhymes with it's gone.

There were a couple of lasses from Burruh in my corridor in my first year at university. They soon put me right!

The joke doesn't work if people insist on pronouncing scone incorrectly.

But but how do you say 'bury a body'!!

I agree with the second point.

This does not help. That's byoo - ree!

Do you mean Berry??

But I'm from Northern Ireland and haven't lost my accent. So what do I know.

In the last month Nigel Farage has spent around eight times longer promoting gold bars for money (4 hours) than he has spent doing his supposed main job of being an MP voting in the House of Commons (just two votes, taking approximately 30 minutes)

In the two months prior to this he didn't vote at all

That is a cracking day. Sam Ryder is such a great performer. No opinion on Ferguson.

I say Berry and sc-oh-ne 😳

You are clearly not to be trusted then.

Paddington The Musical is wonderful .

I was wondering about JC Superstar. Can he act though?
