East lancs has to be the place for local accents, when my parents moved us from Blackburn to Ossie the natives used to take the micky out of my accent, LOL (only moved about 5 miles!) e.g if I might say "down town" I got ribbed cos it should be "dan t taan" looks abit cockney when trying to type it. But I reckon I was thrown in the deep end anyway.. I mean who the F thought up " as ti fekillin, far ti middlin"?
