wellinghallSomeone on my FList may be interested in the piece in the latest issue of Oxford Today, saying that the word "chav" might have spread to the rest of the UK from Chatham.
There's a nice anecdote of the Beatles (as well as a good example of a great singer / songwriter guitarist) here:
When will England remember how to play rugby? They knew how to against France, but the knowledge seems to have deserted them in Murrayfield.
And when will England remember how to play cricket? Yes, Sidebottom's hat-trick was excellent, as were the other England catches - but apart from that?
ETA: For a few weeks, the birds round here have been gobbling up sunflower seeds like nobody's business. However, this last week, while the seeds we put out at the front of the house have all gone, the ones at the back have hardly been touched. Odd, that. (But whatever the reason, we'll be bringing in the feeders tonight, before it gets too windy).
