Yea I was assuming they were something like that.
As you all know I watch a lot of British television for a guy from North America and I had to concentrate to understand what they were saying. It was really thrashed and mashed English.
I seem to have acquired the ability to re-create the accent to my friend's amusement.
"oooooooooi said ta'eeeeem Stwaaaabewwwy Daaaaaaqwe Nah' dis banhaaaaan sheh!"
Translation: I said to him Strawberry Daiquiri, none of this banana shit!
*shudder*
Aww, Curt's met some northerners!

That sounds like it could be a London accent. As we all now know this is 'Ellie's city'...

Hey! Speaking as a Londoner too I know some of us sound rough at times but this sounded more Devon-like to me. As in "Oiiive got a brand new combine harvester." etc
LOL

Chavs would never go to Cuba. It's like the uber-destination for Middle-Class Lefties.
I know of a chav family who have been to Cuba. Perhaps they're middle-class chavs.
