Nuts, I am completely outdone :-)  I was half-way thru writing that as a 
Pommie I grew up with so many dialacts I lost count and then moved to 
Australia, multi-cultural Sydney, and had to start learning all over 
again, and all of them "English". Total all of that and it doesn't come 
close to 347 :^)


But getting back to the thread, as a Southern Pom I coulnd't understand 
some of those Northern folk. The basic English was there so if we both 
dropped back to "basics" we could communicate but both of us were out of 
our common talking space .
