    Another annoying thing is when someone says 'me' instead if I or my.

    E.g. 'I'm eating me dinner' (which is evening meal by the way!) or 'me know'

    Add this word 'into the mix' (I hate that phrase)

    We sometimes say that (eating me dinner....midday meal btw!), although sometimes we say it properly and say my!

    Just realised, I'm coming across as so Northern in this thread! :rotfl:

    I've also wondered how they get that wheelchair up into that small flat where the only access appears to be the flight of stairs!

    Edit: Yes, I also say "me Mam"....it's our dialect! I'm sure there are plenty of Southern phrases that would "do me ead in"
