ROFL....however that's West Yorkshire & I'm North Yorkshire .
We're much broader...(& use swear words more freely) . My
Grandfather spoke old North Yorkshire which is basically old old
Norwegian/Danish. The old road next to mine is called "Danes
Dyke" though I didn't know Danish girls were that way inclined
. That & I'm blonde...(bloody Vikings what they ever do for
us). I always remember standing (just) at a urinal in Munich during the
Oktoberfest & this old Bavarian complete with Lederhosen came to the
urinal next to mine & said "Ach dieser touristen" To which I
just said "Ja dieser touristen" & nodded sagely .

Re the Dutch English accent...we're having fun with our Dutchies at work by
quoting from "Austin Powers Goldmember"........

"There's 2 things I hate in this world....Those who are intolerant of
other people's cultures...& the Dutch"

...that & quoting from Goldmember himself..."You have a taut
boody" & of course "Shhhmoke & a pancake?"
