Oh that was nice Tequila; it reminded me of my mother and made me wish I was back in the real north.

fryalot · 13/01/2009 21:08

aaaah, you don't live in the north!

right, so what you're saying is that all us northerners should bloody well go back where we came from and stop diluting your pure blood southernness?

God, I really, really hope you're trolling.

Out of interest, what kind of northern accent? Yorkshire? Geordie? Mancunian? Scouse? Watford?

Oh good lord. You poor thing.

Sue!

Stop the rot before it starts.

"wtf does that mean?'howay man hinny hoy a hamma owa here' "

ask your child!

In a word, move to an area where the accent doesn't offend.

weirdy freak. give up work, stay at home - save money and work on the elocution.

FairLadyRantALot · 13/01/2009 21:08

hmm...isn't come 'ere more a Eastenders thing though

joke aside...YABU..and why would you have to pay £900 a month for an over 3 year old anyway?

Pinkjenny · 13/01/2009 21:09

My dd is currently cultivating her scouse accent. Bet you'd just love us.

noonki · 13/01/2009 21:09

Maybe you can become a sahm and he can pick up your beautiful vocab

Well if you don't like the influence his caregivers are having I suggest you stay at home with him and then he can grow up exactly like you - won't that be delightful?

Habbibu · 13/01/2009 21:11

Ah, come come, ladies. Ms 900 comes from a place where no-one drops their aitches, after all. I think she should sue, tbh. Mental distress?

SlartyBartFast · 13/01/2009 21:11

caps and swearing and offensive thread title.

hides thread..

silly silly waste of time.

OrmIrian · 13/01/2009 21:12

you could learn to love your inner northerner. My DC veer between Eastend (DH), RP (me) and Somerset (school). I think it's quite nice actually.

lostinnappies · 13/01/2009 21:12

UP THE MANCUNIANS !!!!!!

mazzystartled · 13/01/2009 21:12
