They don’t even pretend to have a British accent. Sheeesh !
Not all Brits speak with a Cockney accent, Gweedo. Only those who live in a certain section of East London do. “British” accents vary from region to region just as much as “American” accents do.
Now, it’s possible that Andy lives somewhere to the north, say, in Manchester or Liverpool. In that case, he’d speak with a more musical-sounding accent, but he wouldn’t drop his “h”s or pronounce his “a”s as “i”s or his “o”s as “ow”s, as you seem to think he should.
And if Andy thinks the ones are going to screech when they see Flo he is in for a surprise. Hairdressers what some of Flo’s money. Andy just hopes Flo will get mad and leave so he will have more money for drinking.
These comments are so funny.
Andy tried to talk Flo into buying a case of Miller Lite
for $24.95.
Instead, she bought a jar of face cream for $17.95.
He told her the beer would make her look better at night than the face cream..
And that’s when the fight started…..
