  1. I find it amusing that people from Appalachia, according to the video above in this thread, are celebrated for their use of Elizabethan English and yet we are supposed to ridicule people from,say, Suffolk. Or as you point out from sowf London.
  2. I believe the footpaths were paved long before the streets. ๐Ÿค” But yes it must be difficult. The Germans speak German, the French speak French, the Swedes speak Swedish and the Americans speak...er English

  4. Don't collect the garbage from non payers
  5. Russians per chance๐Ÿค”
  6. Strangely he could have had a good life, lived in a nice house and never wanted for anything. Except his wife did not want to live in the shadow.๐Ÿค”

  12. How can it be moot? They all sound the same.
  13. Because that is written English not spoken English. In spoken English theirs no difference.๐Ÿค”
  14. Worst case scenario. 30% of the landed cost (value of the item plus shipping cost, post, courier) Plus 7% Even worse case. Add 200 baht for FedEx handling fee.
  15. I was 24 when my wife was born. And no I'm not Scottish either, ya ken.
  16. Hash House Harriers ๐Ÿค”
  17. What's the difference between a Brit and a 747 ? The 747 stops whining when it gets to Sydney.
  18. Macro is either the incorrect pronunciation or the misunderstanding of a farang.
