A young thug who threatened to kill a woman in a terrifying robbery tried to escape police by jumping over a garden wall - only to fall 50 feet down a railway embankment and break his wrist in the process.

Utter bollocks, the accent isn't dying because of the numbers of people moving into the county.



No, the rhotic 'r' is fading away because younger generations realise it makes them sound like a bleedin' stereotypical village idiot.  noooo:

Just to check, this is December and not April?

You are seriously telling me that there are at least 2 people out there stupid enough to fork out $120,000 for one of these and despite hiking the price up another $30k there is still interest in buying the third one...  Shocked:

If people are stupid enough to pay that much for a banana gaffer taped to a wall then we really are fucked as a species...  noooo:
