By gosh! There is financial reward to be gained if one invests finance into the reclamation of land over yonder.

Or,

If thou art to go diggin in t'hills thee will get a reet good lumpin'.

Lets be honest, when they interview a Blackpool landlady on the telly she always puts on a posh voice so we can't tell if she's common or not.
Just trying to figure out how Diane 2 would sound if this was a voice operated forum. LOL!
 
Do they often interview Blackpool landladies on the telly? I must have missed that.
 
She'd probably sound something like this............

"Get away from me conny, you dirty old pervert". :mrgreen:

Isn't that Yorkshire? :?: :?: :?: That's where they still use "thee" and "thou", as in "Where's the bin?" (where have you been).
 
Always found this ad from the Blackpool Tourist Board amusing. She picks up the lingo near the end.

Why the sudden interest, Conny? Going to visit our Di?


 
Nah, you form mental pics of what people look like I'm just trying mental sounds for a change! :lol:

(Well my mental images never turn out right so thought I'd try something different! ) :lol:
