Now then boys and girls, Little Fella once again. I spent much of me pup years in Lancashire and, as I might pop up on this blog now and then, I thought I would teach you some of the lingo so to speak. Me mum tells me that some of you are in India, Russia, America - I've no idea what she's on about - but you might find some of this hard to understand.
I've had me corporation pop and me Dad's put wood in th'ole, so time for sleep soon, once Wagga stops mitherin' me. Wagga's not as green as she's cabbage lookin, she's reet.
Got to tell me mum that our hair is full of lugs so it needs sorting with that brush thing, after I've had me scran; I could eat a horse between two bread vans!
