Why so many Scousers?

[Crystal Waters]

See?  i think the opposite.  I am from Liverpool and despite having lived in Yorkshire for 20 plus years, I still have an accent and I always thought that was why I don't really notice it like others seem to

I've lived in Yorkshire for 20+ years too

It's funny how we all se things differently.

[russycarps]

Sound is used elsewhere, but you lot have the monopoly on 'boss'!

And kidda!

[fatyeti24]

And kidda!

You can't kid a kidder, kidda!

[rottencrotch]

are you guys using the word 'sound' because this is the scouse thread or do they say that elsewhere? if it's the latter then my mind is blown - i always thought it was a strictly scouse thing

Used in Glasgow/west of Scotland too.

Yeah I've heard it said quite often up here.

[faymondo]

You can't kid a kidda who's kidded thousands !

Hair in curlers is funny, I think that's uniquely scouce. Go out on Saturday night; on Friday evening you get yer hair put in rollers, not known anywhere else to do that.

[FloorFiller]

yeah i think every single girl on my coach on the way there had curlers in their hair. i knew walking around the city all day before a night out was a pretty scouse thing to do, but before a festival!?

[Vacant0]

I was wondering the same thing! Loads of them there this year - or really, there probably wasn't, its just a very distinctive accent so you notice it more.

Not been out in Liverpool a lot, but from what I've seen, a rainy night out in Liverpool is funny as fuck for girls absolutely losing their shit that their curls have fallen out in the rain.

Note for southerners: you know that coats aren't traditionally taken on a night out in the north, so obviously umbrellas are out of the question.

More Emma's and Rupert's from Surrey than ever. Didn't notice more Scousers than usual in all honesty.

Arrr, thats dead boss kidder!  

 

What you see depends on where you stand

Had a brilliant Scouse experience on Sat, early hours.

We'd wandered into the fire garden in the Healing Field and people started organically drifting over, attracted by the fire. This full on shaman character who made the place comes out with his long hair and fur outfit, carrying a didgeridoo, and makes us all bash blocks and chant, including these two Scouse lads rolling a dubious cigarette. It goes on for ages.

When it's finished we are all sat in silence, almost tripped out. These lads turn to the Shaman bloke and go, "Everton or Liverpool mate?" Sound blokes but what they were doing there, I've no idea! Glasto is ace!

They walk around town all day Saturday with their hair in rollers? For real?!?!

[neil999]

heard some great strong somerset accents 'aah banger' from some young girl every morning was brilliant..

[Digi]

No!  All Friday night AND all day Saturday for real

[FloorFiller]

They walk around town all day Saturday with their hair in rollers? For real?!?!

 

yep seriously - sometimes even the day before. it's a ridiculously common thing

[WS_Jack_III]

Must have good internet

[barcelonista1899]

I was actually thinking of making the same thread. 

 

I'm no tech expert but maybe Seetickets servers are located near there or for some reason IP addresses local to merseyside seem to be able to access the system quicker. 

 

Also working on the gates, it did seem that more times than not a dubious ticket would be in the hands of someone with such an accent. 

[FloorFiller]

(I've never seen this)

 

then you're no scouser!

 

 

 

also, during Lionel i heard a group of lads (presumably scousers) chanting 'Lionel is a scouser! Lionel is a scouser! between songs which i thought was pretty funny

You're in Ormskirk not Liverpool

My seetickets coach was full of girls with rollers in and full of scally Liverpool lads. I felt like I was going to Creamfields not Glastonbury, they were doing ket on the way down at 8am on Wednesday. Can't imagine they were feeling the best come Monday. Also I've been in Manchester for most of the year for Uni and I've come back to Liverpool to find that all the scally lads who used to have their head's completely shaved now all have perms, what's with this new trend?

[the_lost_girl]

with it being my first Glastonbury I was  amazed at how many Scousers attended? They must have had some sort of direct link to see tickets there because there is no way that with so many people wanting to attend it was a coincidence that so many of them managed to get tickets 

 

hahaha that merseyside internet. Surprised there was even anyone left in the city! 

(Myself being one of the many scousers who made the trip to worthy farm.)
