sorry, in-joke for the englishers on the list. essex is famed for producing girls who are pale of hair, feeble of intellect, and easy of morals. and for producing boys that actually find these people attractive. essex girl jokes are therefore rife: how do you tell an essex girl's been using your computer ? —tippex on the screen how does an essex girl turn the light on in the morning ? —open the door of the ford cortina how do you make an essex girl's eyes light up ? —shine a torch in her ear it's been claimed that chatham ( a town on the river medway in the kentish thames estuary ) is the new chatham, but its inhabitants have darker greasier hair, bigger earrings, and a very different accent ( characteristic : prolongued vowels, particularly [&] ). all stereotypes, but it's scary how much truth there is in them. bn __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
