Re: Lancashire accent

It seems the Lancashire accent can be confusing even when your reading something.

One of the lads came in to the pub and during a conversation asked if anyone had used nowt five.com because he was thinking of signing up to it for use at home. None of us had heard of it so we asked about it, 'well, he said they supply T.V. programmes for use at home and according to the letter they'd sent him it looked a good deal'.

I got my mobile out and said I'd look it up for him, I couldn't find nowt five or anything like it, he glanced at my screen and said, 'no wonder you can't find it your putting it in wrong, it's spelt nowtv.com not the way your doing it!'.
