Which side of the triangle do you favour? Or is it a nice round swoop.

Ooh hello @anon24576931! :wave: WB.

Not really phrase related but I was always a big fan of my friend who was from America but lived here long enough that Black Countryisms snuck into his accent frequently

my boss is from south africa and occasionally slips into lancashire colloquialisms which is fun

not really relevant now G doesn’t go to the school near the M3/M1 stop and I work from home but the M bus was great. Also the Y2/Y4/Y5 and the 48/49 are GBOB too

Mainly I missing seeing people on the bus, very very occasional eye contact flirting but mostly it was my best time to get knitting / reading done

Yeah was trying to think of some earlier, Corby has loads but they’re presumably all Scottish, maybe there’s some that aren’t but dunno which.
There’s awright me duck which is fairly generic Midlands

yeah I think our regional character is having no character, which is fine

Do you get any Peaky Fookin Blinders impersonations with the flat caps and long coats?

I’ve not seen the show I thought they were Irish?
