Definitely, that's just a very extreme version of!

OK, so I've just asked you whether you have heard your own accent...

The little britain clip reminds me of Maryanne Fahey as "Kylie Mole" actually :

Best known for "and then she goes, she goes, she goes, she just goes".

The people I've heard with a west country accent didn't exactly sound like that, they were older and a bit calmer.

Yes I have, I live very close to Devon, the county I'm in (Dorset) has what's known as a west country accent, along with Devon, Somerset and Cornwall.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdfJySxOb6U&feature=related This is somewhat a Devonshire accent, I dunno if I can really hear the aussie in it, but you are clearly more qualified than me to deduce that :

Have you heard a Devon accent? To my ears that sounds as close to an Australian accent as the U.K. gets.

Not really on topic for the vid though, hence moving it here :

Welsh accent doesn't sound American or even close. Pretty sure any British accent does not sound American or come close. Australian and English, perhaps, although i can't hear it, I accept a lot of people get that mixed up. Never ever heard of anyone mistaking any British accent for an American one, regardless of your immigration point.

"Even you" hehe ;

It teaches a few things, like the importance and effectiveness of the gas masks, keeping cool under duress and such. Mostly though I think the instructors just enjoy it. In every class there will be a few pukers, the instructors in Cornwallis know that so they tell everyone that Jell-O or chocolate milk will dampen the effects of the gas, all it really does is provide colourful vomit.


It's also supposed to give them confidence in their kit (NBC suit and mask) that it will do it's job effectively and they can experience that first hand rather than just "hoping" it works because someone told them it will.

Also, love the anecdote about the Jell-O and colorful vomit. Classic!

Call me impatient, but we're in the middle of a huge conflict in the US political sphere over what to do with health care.


hey, impatient. the us health care conflict doesn't immediately affect me as i'm in the uk and i have no compassion when it comes to non-brits/non-shauns.

however, we are currently knee-deep in an angry buzzard crisis over here and i would therefore love to see a redesigned poll which included the option to back a *buzzard channel, the creation of which would allow us to organise the endless videos related to said crisis.

the ball's in your court. i await the redesign with both baited breath and itchy finger.

i can get up that way on a time scale that lax. cant offer sofa's though as Cornwall's a bit far for that (and land of leather haven't delivered them yet. which might be an issue).

Unless of course you're fit and i abduct you.

If America had suffered 5-year occupation by Iraq (or Saudi Arabia or Germany or Japan...any country, really) and the new leadership announced a withdrawal, wouldn't the militant rebels of America (as well as all citizens) also dance in the streets?

I'm quite sure America did some dancing once Cornwallis was driven away 227 years ago.

Cornwall loves the campa. Good for surfers.

In ten years, huh? Guess you look awfully dumb already qm since no credible model predicts catastrophic levels of ocean rise within 10 years. Try 30-50 years. OF course, parts of England's eastern coast are already eroding due the minute change we have already seen, so there's that.

btw, after noon, won't the sea levels start declining?

Ich have nevir heard of thys gentil yclept Bill Bailey, but he is mooste humorous in his tale of dronken revelrie.

"Three fellows wenten into a pubbe,
and gleefully their hands did rubbe,
in expectacion of revelry,
for twas the hour known as happy.

Great bottles of wine did they quaff,
and hadde a really goode laff,
'till drunkenness held full dominion,
for 'twas two for the price of one.

Yet after wine and meade and sack,
man must have a massive snack,
great pasties from Cornwall,
Scottish eggs, round like a ball.

Great hams, quail, duck and geese,
they sucked the bones and drank the grease.
One fellow stood all pale and wan,
for he was a vegiterian.

Yet man knoweth that gluttony stoketh the fire of lechery,
upon three young wenches round and sly the fellows cast a wanton eye,
One did approach with drunken wink,
'allow daaahlin – you fancy a drink?

Soon they court them on their knee – 'twas like some grotesque puppetry,
such was the lewdness and debauchery 'twas like a sketch by Dick Emery,
Except Dick Emery is not yet born,
so that comparison may not be drawn.

But then the fellows began to pale,
for Quale are not the friend of ale,
And in their bellies much confusion,
from their throats, vile extruision!

Stinking foul coruption,
came spewing forth from drooling lips,
the fettid stench did fill the pubbe,
'twas the very arse of Belzibubbe.

Thrown they were, from the Whore and Trumpet,
In the street, no coin, no strumpet,
homeward bound must quickly go,
and to that end, a donkey stole.

Their hands all with vomit greased,
the donkey – was not pleased,
and threw them into a ditch of shite,
they all agreed – "what a brilliant night!"
