Reading that list makes me realise that whilst I use some of those words there are loads of words I wouldn't understand. Grimsby dialect is funny

What about 'ast' maybe 'as'd' rather than ask

Quoted from Welwynmariner


I went to Bursar Street school. If only all schools today were that good!

I found one of my old compositions recently. Mr Shorter had written on it "Boring!". He was right. These days teachers wouldn't dare be so dismissive.


God I went to Bursar and that bloke used to scare the excrement out of me. Was Miss Over there when you were. She was a fearsome old bint and used to hand out the violent beatings to unruly pupils.

It does what it says on the tin it's a BIT BIN.
The best file system ever invented.


Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play.
It is bound up with hatred,jealousy,boastfullness,
disregard of all rules and a sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence;
In other words it is war without the shooting.

I know I have a Grimsby accent, but not a rough one, or so I've been told. Certainly went down well in the US last year

They do like the British accent out there. But they also like the sound of their own voices a bit too much as well.
