Yeah ... exactly :blink:

From the east end of London, so any accent would have sounded nothing whatsoever like John Cleese or any other 'Prim and propa/faggety girly' English bloke.

Totally different, in fact.

To you they are totally different. To us they are British sounding. Amazing what I heard accent-wise turns out to be the case.

Round and round.

Bye, Busy.

1. Why do you think your country is so good?

2. Why do English folks fly flags at football matches?

3. You never climbed a tree as a child?

Edit: Here is a line from the UK National Audit Office Press Notice. "Most adults in England are now overweight, and one in five is obese".

1) I never said England is good.
2) Last time i went to a match we didn't. When England play as an internation side in different countries people bring English flags with the name of there home town written on them to show the team has support from that part of the country.
3) Yes, but never half way through a hurricane and i wasn't about 30 trying to put a flag up there.

Peerzy i would love to fight you in real life.

He is a special type of idiot...

Anyone got a audio clip of Lennox Lewis? I haven't heard his voice in a while but I do remember he didn't have a British accent.

Thank you for replying Peerzy.

1. I was simply turning the question around. I never meant to imply you did say such.

2. But the point is, they still fly them. Like you said yourself, it is support.

3. I actually didn't realize you meant that they were climbing the trees during the storm. Please chalk that one up to my misunderstanding. And indeed, it was an incredibly stupid thing to do.

To be honest, I couldn't give a rat's ass what he sounded like, he could sound like Shirley Temple for all I care. The end result, is the morning after a match, someone is waking up to a world of pain.

1) K'
2) Well, really we hang them from the stands :pinch: and that is pretty much the only time we hang/fly them.
3) Yes there was flowing water below her and she was having trouble even holding onto the flag as she climbed the tree.
