Yea, the lis...I want a 'diplomatic bag'!!!<br /><br />Yea, the list is surely growing.

He used to get Buckfast and plain bread sent in the diplomatic bag.drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12469084438125548989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5066813424670277559.post-35126176231537808622010-04-15T19:31:53.326+01:002010-04-15T19:31:53.326+01:00Nowt right with the Teesside accent!

I think I'd rather not know.<br /><br />My Mum is Scotland bound in a couple of weeks and I have already started a food shopping list of things I want. Plain loaves (at least two), potato scones, black pudding, white pudding, empire biscuits, Iron Bru in a glass bottle...Steph Mulrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13793618919586088531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5066813424670277559.post-13631903856173646352010-04-15T19:23:55.305+01:002010-04-15T19:23:55.305+01:00Plain bread, now you are talking.
Nothing wrong ...Plain bread, now you are talking. <br /><br />Nothing wrong with a Teeside accent, better than a Fife accent, I was going to say Edinburgh but the accents you hear there are mostly English or Antipodean.drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12469084438125548989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5066813424670277559.post-34653244290096344722010-04-14T20:49:38.444+01:002010-04-14T20:49:38.444+01:00Everything about Scotland is better, in my opinion...Everything about Scotland is better, in my opinion. I'd be in my homeland! I'd maybe get back the Scottish accent I used to have until I was 5 years old.<br /><br />I would be close to <i>all</i> of my extended family! The political landscape is more to my liking. Marginalised and annoyed. Forward thinking and progressive policies. And, most importantly, I'd be able to buy plain loaves!<br /><br />It's only because my Mum and Dad moved here that I now have a horrible North East (of England) accent. Bloody fools!<br /><br />Although someone on the radio at the weekend said they thought that the Teesside accent was quite sexy. Maybe they are as foolish as my parents.Steph Mulrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13793618919586088531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5066813424670277559.post-86433161806953393672010-04-14T19:31:02.176+01:002010-04-14T19:31:02.176+01:00Why Scotland?

All the election pish is happening up here as well and we have to listen to Alex Salmond and see that sonsie face plastered all over the media moaning about how he isn't getting to be pat of the leaders debate.<br /><br />Still we do have better water and quieter roads but that's about it really.drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12469084438125548989noreply@blogger.com
