    nearly two years since i left england.

    i remember what scouser means.
    i remember skint and snog and pudding and minging

    i remember the hedges and roundabouts, the seaside and rain
    i remember london
    i remember exeter

    but i was reading a book this morning.

    and i can not remember geordie. does geordie apply to scousers or brummies, or somebody else? i can't remember!

    this disturbs me. i don't want to forget.

    next thing you know i'll be forgeting about st. george and the dragon.

    A Geordie is someone from Up North! Newcastle, Durham type way, if you are old enough to have watched it, Byker Grove was filled with them and Ant and Dec are both of that persuasion!

    Hope that helps :D

    Poor Plaid, bad memory is the first sign of senility.



    ...or is it? I forget.

    It is a sad sad thing when an Anglophile has Anglnesia.

    **sigh** tell me about it... You have my sympathy, plaid, I've spent over half my llife in France, and I've been through the terrible moment when you realize you've forgotten some of your english. It doesn't sound that bad, but it really is hell to go through. I can only thank Terry for keeping me so deeply in love with my native tongue. And cable TV of course.
