Is that like "I haven't had A chance to do...." cos I've never heard of "I haven't had chance"

I think it's common in the Midlands and I think they might also say it in Liverpool.

I've heard it plenty of times Oop North.

You haven't heard of "I haven't had chance"????

MerryMarigold · 15/06/2008 19:30

No, I've never heard of it. I thought it was a typo! But I am a suvverner.

It's not common in the Midlands at all actually...

And we don't say: "Haven't had chance either." {grin]
