    I'm born and raised in Barnsley, and I've never heard anyone call a toaster a toyster?

    A tooaster maybe, never a toyster

    Some barnsley folk definitely play up the accent. Broad is one thing. Making words longer, harder to say and inaudible, is just stupid. Teyer? What the **** is teyer? Just say tea and stop making words up, yer weirdo..

    She's from Essex and a lovelier girl you couldn't find.

    This view is in no way influenced by the fact that she gave me a kiss a couple of years ago on holiday in Spain.

    She were born in Hertfordshire but spent most of her formative years living up Gawber, in her late teens she moved away from Barnsley and returned back down south where her parents sent her for elocution lessons to rid her of her Barnsley accent which they were ashamed of. Occasionally the odd word slips out or she sometimes uses it for comedy effect on nights out.

    She aint alone, reports suggest that this happens to a lot of people that are Barnsley born and bred that on leaving then try to rid themselves of the accent and distance themselves from ever being associated with the Yorkshire town.

    Or people who write in their accents.
    Why?

    Must take longer and be harder to do surely.
