I need to do this accent for a play-am finding it very dificult coming fromNorfolk and can't do accents! Any advice?

@anthonymaley177 Hi Anthony. Where do I start? In Lancashire we drop the "H's" at the beginning of a word, so Help becomes 'elp, also drop the "G's" at the end of words, so nothing becomes nothin'. Some also sound "th" as "f" as in fin, "nothing" then becomes nuffin'. "Thanks" becomes fanks. As you'll have noticed "something" becomes summat. I know this might sound a bit daft, but if you watch (and listen) to Eastenders, the characters in that sound more Lanky than the ones in Corrie. Stan.

Stan your my hero!

Best thing to come out of Oldham since Marc Owen the wife cheater. Well delievered, when do you create such great poems?

[stanleybrown90]

Thanks FullBykeOldham. Glad you liked it, due to an accident over 12 months ago, I,ve been a bit under the weather, and not wrote anything since. But hoping to get back in the saddle soon. I just keep my ears open, and clock daft things that people say, then try and weave summat around it.

Cheers. Stan.

Hi jordhart1.

Thanks for that. There's always an idiot in the woodwork somewhere isn't there?

I agree Sneepers does need medical help. Keep up the good work Stan.

Hi sneeper65.

Seems like you need a bit of medical help. I can take critisism (no problem)but it seems you need to get a life.

Stan.
