      how many "R"s in the word "drawing"?

      1 for normal people.
      2 if you're from the south - "drawring"....FFS

      I actually saw this on an official in-house Health & Safety poster someone put up in my last place: "Remember to shut your draws"

      "Keep them at 24,000"
      "No, feet"

            Oh, I want to hacksaw my ears off when I hear that. Specially when it comes from teenage white people.

              Apparently celebrity chef Jamie Oliver's parents speak like the Queen and Evening Standard art critic Brian Sewell, and are as rich as custard.

              So I'm guessing that prior to taking up cookery he was at Eton, Oxford, and the Grenadier Guards. That being so, how come he speaks with a mockney accent?

              Much the same goes for Madonna's (now ex?) husband Guy Ritchie, and most would-be cockney luvvies. I expect Vinnie Jones also has a cut glass accent on the quiet, and Ray Winstone probably speaks like a fine art dealer when he thinks no one is listening.

                Quite ..... that's exactly how we all speak down here really. Just a put on.

                My mate Vernon sounds just like Brian Sewell when he's stamping on some fuccker's head.

                  Another one.. Why can't you say Birmingham?

                  It always sounds like Birminam
                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
