proper brummie kid
I suppose its called progression and we must now accept that we have a multi racial society but but but but when I came to Birmingham for the day by coach (thanks to all for tips on shopping etc), a couple of weeks ago, I was desperate to hear the sound of Birmingham again and a good old Brummie accent, then I would know I was 'home' again.
Not a familiar accent anywhere - foreign in multitudes but no brummies, in desperation I asked a lady in 'the bullring' directions, she was obviously a true daughter of the soil, but what soil I still do not no, as she didn't speaka d English at all. So loudly I sing "Where have all the brummies gone" to the tune of where have all the flowers etc.
Bless you all where ever you are hiding.
