So are these cobs (or whatever you call them) as they've been hanging around so long now!

Weirdly I just heard someone say batch for the first time probably ever. Some woman to her grandad I'm the snooker club. "Want a ham and cheese batch?".

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Right ok. Scoan or Sgone.

 

[Keef]

I ay that common

 

[Alan]

If I put my real accent on, it's "Shrews-berry".

Christian Marques permanent move to Swiss side Yverdon sport

Now Swiss rolls are definitely cakes and not bread.

 

[Wolf Hunting]

If I put my real accent on, it's "Shrews-berry".

I expect this'll put a stop to it all...
How to pronounce Shuesbry is akin to getting that little town near Huddersfield right, called Slaithwaite, pronounce Slouitt (as in ow itt)
or a bit of quaintness for Alan, near Knutsford in Cheshire are the 2 villages of Lower and Upper Peover. (Peever)

 

[The Bear]

Shrows-brie

Slaithwaite comes from the Old Norse language for a timber-fell clearing.

 

[leedswolf]

Just on the 'bread' naming stuff, parts of West Yorkshire (particularly near Skelmanthorpe) they (rolls, cobs, batches, barms, etc.) are referred to as teacakes (no currants, just bread).

You're allowed to get it wrong, it's expected as you're an exotic furriner.

You have mentioned the peovers before. Time for new material!

Move into Leicestershire Belvoir is pronounced Beaver (sort of) which is far more of an odd thing than a silent o.

Moving rather north Kirkudbright is Curr-Coo-Bree

 

[Dukinfield]

Cholmondley pronounced Chumley by the locals is a belter.
