    It comes out as "Dats Right, Innit Eh?" It makes my vimvie laugh!
    I am from Surrey as wellBut I say things like "Why aye man" instead of YES and "Why nor man" instead of NO,and "Gan canny like" instead of TAKE IT EASY and "Y'ar reet mate" instead of HOW ARE YOU?



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
