Simple this, add a comment underneath here to pledge to Talk Like a Brummie on Friday 20th July. Pass this link around to all your friends:
http://talklikeabrummieday.co.uk/i-pledge-to-talk-like-a-brummie-on-july-20th/
Let’s collect as many names as possible!
The lovely lads at Bostin.org.uk - home of the T-Shirts that Adrain Chiles loves - have agreed to send a T-Shirt to one lucky TLABDay-er. All you have to do is sign up here and pledge (before Friday obviously).
You can even sign up for their newsletter for the chance to win even more Bostin stuff.
EDIT: You can still pledge,but only those pledged before this morning will go in the hat.

Me Pledge…
Ar bin a proud wench from Dudley
Oo’s accent causes a loff
From them ‘uns oo doe understand we
Be they northerners, southerners or toffs
Our accent is one I pledge bostin’
It cums from our furnace-like ‘earts
We bay as green as we’m cabbage lookin’
Being a brummie is the finest of arts.
Happy ‘Spake like the Brummigam’ Day!

The last time I attempted to pull off a Brummie accent I insulted the Brummie girl I was talking to and she walked straight out of the pub.
Let’s hope it goes a bit better this time around.
All-roight…I still sound like a Jamaican doing a German accent though.

People always repeat what I say, in a crappy Brummie accent.
‘Do I really sound like that?’……probably, and proud of it!

My dad despairs that every time I see him, my Derbyshire accent is fading and the Brummieness is creeping in. A Bostin t shirt would make him weep.
