Some of the colourful people from my area, "The Black Country", trying to explain some of the old sayings, let's hope they don't die out, got to keep heritage alive. To me the accent and dialect is a form of music
 https://youtu.be/NqIcbLkY2iY https://youtu.be/bzviWAyO6Oc Apparently our dialect it the closest to Anglo Saxon and is the closest to old English than anywhere else in the country. The old couple in this video have a lovely lilting accent. https://youtu.be/vb4MknMqwmA And if you're really into your history, you may like this: https://youtu.be/n3pfdEZziXU -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE  “Success is not obtained overnight.

I've always assumed so because of Jason and Glenn's links with the area, may be wrong though.

And THIS is how the Black Country itself got its name
 I'm in the borough of Dudley, considered the capital of the Black Country and I'm specifically in Kingswinford born and bred.

If it's the same one, I went to school with him, I'm sure he was in the year above me.
