And some British people pronounce "Bath" as "Bath" and not as "Bath."

People that live there call it "Barth".

Aaaaaah.

Father's car is a Jaguar
And Pa drives rather fast
Castles, farms, and draughty barns
Papa goes charging past.

Plaistow is a few stops short of Barking (on the district line)

 

[JohnD]

I don't think I've ever been to Barking. I've been to Bow Locks, and Barking Creek is not far along. Mucking Flats is further.

 

[Ihavenojob]

Mucking Flats is further.

My Granny and Grandad used to live there (not actually on the flats). Spent many a happy summer hol's risking life and limb there.

I don’t think I’ve ever got on or off at Plaistow station.

 

[EFLImpudence]

Neither have I.

Wiggers?

 

[ReganAndCarter]

I once dated someone from Denmark while at uni and couldn't pronounce anything starting with a V. Came out as a W. Found out to my amusement when talking about classic wampire movies

Once knew a girl who pronounced 'L' as a 'W'. She kept insisting that she wanted to get weighed. Had her on the bloody speak you weight machine 20 times before I worked out what she was really saying.

Used to go there after leaving Upton Park, longer walk but no queues.

That’s where I get off. You wouldn’t recognise it now the ground has gone.
