Why would you concern yourself with being 'nice'?

SolidGoldBrass · 17/07/2010 01:52

Isn't it past your bedtime?

Ronaldinhio · 17/07/2010 01:54

leave him by the roadside during a long car journey?

chickenlittlee · 17/07/2010 02:08

After 3 years, you realise you can't put up with his accent anymore and want to get rid of him? You're bored. Admit it.

Tiredmumno1 · 17/07/2010 02:09

Confused?

strandedatsea · 17/07/2010 02:18

has something happened that has suddenly made you hate english ppl or has this been going on for years?

have you discussed it with him?

perhaps you should try and work it out before getting rid of him. There might be a book about english ppl, their likes and dislikes, why they are the way they are, which could be a good starting point?

Surprised you can hear him with the goats trip-trapping over your bridge...

Gosh how I sympathise - my dh has an applling Leicestershire accent. I've put up with it for 13 years now and feel that ebough is enough. I fully intend to Kill Him tonight. My children are beginning to flatten their vowels and everything. Us posh southerners shouldn't have to deal with such things. YANBU at all. In fact, everyone who doesn't speak in the way I want them to should in fact Die.

Thankyou.

My DD is developing a terrible brummie accent. I intend to sell her to the highest bidder on ebay tomorrow.

I blame the BBC. Everything was lovely until they decided regional accents were acceptable. My ears have been bleeding ever since.

You think you've got it bad with your regional accents? My DH is a bloody forrin' immigrant, innit! What a hideous accent and mangling of Queen's English I have to put up with! You folks don't know you're born.

I intend to have him deported asap. What a relief he's not from the EU!

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 17/07/2010 18:20

My DH is from Eire, and insists on pronouncing 'height' as 'heighth'. I've banned him from speaking to the DC.
