sykestykes Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Is that why they say rowter instead of router-but what happens when talking about a route to get somewhere?

christopher Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Data is pronounced 'dayta' not 'darta'. One thing that does get on the nerves a little is 'har ya geying' which I presume means 'how are you going'. Being called 'Pommie' all the time is a bit annoying to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
