ChapmansThe Saviour said:Agree with Meade's Ball here. 'Binner' is a word I've only ever heard said by a Brightonian.
We might even be able to narrow it down to Old Stringeronians.

Smart Mart said:I was told by a colleague from west London that 'Chav' was very much a southern home counties phrase (ie, mainly Kent & Sussex) that you didnt hear much in other areas around London.
Proud of the contribution weve made to the nation's vocabulary !

Smart Mart said:Brighton people also ask "have you sin it" instead of "seen it".
Dont think Ive heard this anywhere else?
SuperFurrySeagull said:Good to see the word twitten; used in Haywards Heath when I was a kid in the 70's. I happened to mention it to some friends a while back & discovered that each had a different & equally exotic name to describe a back-alley, depending on what part of the country they were from ('twitten' was unknown to them). Why the alley-way should be subject to such variety is anyones guess.

Mr Popkins said:not true
I was up in Glasgow at the weekend and altough they dont use it much "Chavs" are alive and kicking in abundance up there.
Mr Popkins said:The Brightonian accent is a softer version of cockney ,its very distinct. I have often been mistaken for an aussie by the yanks.
