    I remember being intrigued by the word 'axe' in place of ask. I have looked into this usage and apparently it is the original word. Also the word 'rocks' for sweets is something I only ever heard in the Hockley area. When I used it in Acocks Green no-one had any idea what it meant. NoddKD

    This was published in the Daily Mail over Christmas. We had a great deal of fun with it. Some very easy and some take a great deal of thought. The Long Haired Sergeant Major and I scored about 30 each. Have fun. Nodd KD.

    sayings

    My wife calls me honeybun ocasionally but I believe that is more to do with the mad rabbit of Westward TV fame than anything to to with Brummie sayings. She is a Maid of Kent so Brum speak is a mystery to her! ;) ;)

    Birmingham (or very close by) pubs that you would have liked to visit.

    I would've enjoyed visiting the Belgrave pub in Balsall Heath. Spent many hours outside drinking pop whilst my Dad was inside supping with his twin brother. Never made it inside;always intended to. One of those things that never gets done until it's too late. :confused: NoddKD
