Step up to red alert. Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb!
Looking forward to summer in Somerset later in the year :)
James May, the TV presenter, says "becuz" instead of because. Or, or be more accurately, instead of "becos" which is how most people pronounce it. I think it's a west country thing.
My boss says that. No idea why, the only thing linking him and the West Country is the first syllable of the word "country".
Once had an Oirish co-worker ask me "D'ya of'en haff sex?"

Took about five goes to realise he was asking "Do you get off (work) at half (past) six?" =))

Here's one I've heard in the uk and here. It's a 21st century adaptation of English. No more to people say "your baby" or "the baby" they just say baby.
It's used a lot in advertising to mums, for example "Now baby can go everywhere you go" Nooo, you mean "now your baby can go everywhere you go"
Here's another I've seen "Baby Essentials Make your home just right for baby!"
Gggnnurrgggghrrrggh, this is worse than the grocers apostrophe, it just sounds so damn dumb like it was said by Marjorie Doors.

Similar to when people go on safari, and describe animals in the singular, i.e. " we saw tiger, lion and elephant".
it wasnt til quite recently I realised theres such thing as a coventry accent... most accents like liverpool/birmingham/cockney etc are pretty obvious.
also in the metallica song Damage Inc. theres a bit where the instruments cut out and james hetfield just says "damage incorperated" in a really moody, dark way. for some reason I always wonder how funny that bit would sound if done in a brummie accent
