Grarse. It's the southern way me old cocker, cor blimey guv'nor look there, it's a pearly queen.
Dunno about the beefy one 'be fee' I guess.
Bee eff eee. Its grass not grarse, bath not baath & glass not glarse, right where did i leave my scon.
beefy, grarse, barth, glarse, but scon.
Scon/scone I'm bi on that one. I like to go really crazy by having jam then cream on one scon but cream then jam on the other scone.

Born south of England - Northern parents so grass and bath it is though very RP
Mrs antigee - born north of England but Southern parents grarse and barth
Kids born in yorkshire drive me mad by saying yu instead of you and they are fed up with me telling them that the Queen would never respond to "wait up"
we had a kids book that rhymed scarf and giraffe - better than putting your fingers down your throat
Grass, bath.
Dinner is between 1-2pm
Tea is my evening meal.
Supper is something from a chippie
Queen would never respond to "wait up"
Do they say "where-tup" ?? 😀
There is no 'r' in glass, unless you are an arse.
[fatherted]ARSE[/fatherted]

Ass over arse please
It has to be glass, or those four legged horse like creatures would be arses 😉
Cy says Beefy,but as a shandy I just cant bring myself to do it, so its bee eff ee for me.
I like to go really crazy by having jam then cream on one scon but cream then jam on the other scone.

Scone.
As in "it's not there anymore"
I already explained that the arses ave gorne!
BeeFee, Grass. But them I am a scummy midlander
Ass over arse please
Only if you happen to be septic
Grass definitely!
And "supper" is definitely a piece of toast before bed!
scon, butter, jam, cream. but that's another argument
We argue about which way the cream and jam go on down here. Not sure about this butter business though.
Bath is a place and something you lie in to get clean
Barf is something you do when you need to be sick
Bus is a thing that carries people
Buz is the noise a bee makes
and it's Grass
Scoan before it's scoffed, then it's scone.
Gr-ass
Sc-on
B-eef
Ba-th
G-lass
and of course toast is toe-st
If its scone you sure it tin tin tin?
[s]bath[/s] Baff not baath

Scone to rhyme with bone.
Our imminent move back up North is partly due to the fact that we want any possible future offspring to talk properly.

Don't count on that working. My four year old says "grarse" and "barth" despite being Huddersfield-born and raised with one northern parent. I blame CBeebies and his misguided mother, but I expect it'll be beaten out of him after a few years in school. 🙁

Why wait that long? 😉

Best teach them it Scone doesn't rhyme with bone first then.
1960/70s BBC interview - grarse, barth, carstle
2000s BBC interview - grass, bath, castle
But always scon! 😉 do buzzes exist anywhere other than Brum?
Does the panel think that Catholics celebrate Mass or Marse?
(I favour the latter, but only mischievously)
I heard this little gem a while ago coming out of Hull train station; "errr nerrr snerrr" took me a few minutes to figure out what on earth she was on about, but I was also slightly dissapointed that it was snowing.
WOW! People in England have different ways of saying stuff??! I should travel more.
Mass (says the ex-altar boy brummie catholic). Bringing the kids up in South Glos and they say barth and grarse. Is it too late to start correcting them? What works best? Withdrawing pocket money? Waterboarding?
