Sign of age, that.
I live in a typical Herts market town and passed a couple of kids on the street the other day. They were both speaking in what I can only describe as a sort of sh*t John Barnes accent, the one where the letter, I mutates into this wierd, metropolitan, AE noise. I grew up kicking balls over the hackney marshes and never heard that abortion of an accent from anyone ?
I don’t approve. I suspect I’m not alone. When you get used to BBC programme announcers uttering D’at , D’ose or D’em, you can be forgiven for wondering how much lower the bar needs to go.
