How Did You Come Up With Your Tff Username?

[Crossfire]

Lol Crossfire I've just been sat here going through words like that and I sound American

I have a proper Wiltshire accent and sound like a farmer sometimes.

Oim just goin' to the Shaaarp (shop)

Actually, technically even I don't have an "american" accent. The purest form of American English is found in the central midwest. I don't think I have an accent, but my cousins from Minnesota think i do, and they make fun of me!
I say "roof" they say "ruff"
I say "bag" they "bayg"
I say "leg" they say "layg"

here's a real "baltimore" accent for you

I go back n forth between sounding like I've been up north in minnesota for years then switch to sounding like I'm from the backwoods of Kentucky, which Indiana has an accent of its own

Work for Maidenhead Aquatics... when ordering fish, each store as the shops location/name shortened into a code...

I started working for the company about 4-4.5 years ago at Bourne end...

So the code was MBOU (m = maidenhead aquatics, Bou = Bourne End).

Couldnt be bothered to change it to MWEN when i move to the Wendover store and now cant be bothered to change it to MBOO now Im at Booker LOL

On an unrelated point to your name, did you guys see a large uptick in people buying new aquaria while you had that 20% sale on? I got mine from the Croydon branch and all in it worked out £110 cheaper than I could have got it online.

My mums a preschool teacher and I dont get why they teach them one thing (E=Eh) then change it (E=Eeee) why not just go with the later one. It winds me up Cause i have a 3yr old and we teach her (and she knows) the older alphabet but when she goes to school she'll have to go back to the younger alphabet.

Because in the words that the children start of with it makes the (eh) sound and it is only when they move onto later words that it makes the other sound.

They do it because:

We do that with our kids well 4 of 5 of them as ones 5 months butthats how the schools teach now don't they, before they learn their ABC they learn them by sounding them. I thought it was strange but they learn to read much quicker.

And on the 'H' thing - we pronounce it 'Aitch'

And on the 'H' thing - we pronounce it 'Aitch'

Ditto, it is the correct pronunciation.
