Re: Is the Accy accent changing?

I've never heard anyone in England refer to petrol as gas but a few American words are creeping in. One thing I have noticed locally is the increasing absence of the letter "t" in words. When I was younger milk came in bottles. Now it comes in "boh'ulls" or even "cahr'ons" Small ones are referred to as "Lih'uw"
