Here you go frogman, learn a bit of the language as well

Black Country Lingo

Bostin – meaning ‘something to boast about’, it’s brilliant

Aer kid – friendly term for a family member, typically a younger sibling

Argy-bargy – having an argument or disagreement

Mucker – a close friend

Gaffer – the boss

Noggin – head

Havin a loff – sharing a joke with your mates

Ow bin ya? – first thing you say when meeting your friend in the pub to ask how they are

Round the Wrekin – taking the long way round

Blarting – crying or sobbing

Babby – baby, often shortenend to bab, as an alternative to ‘love’ or ‘dear’ as in ‘ow bin ya, bab?’

It’s a bit black over Bill’s mother’s – the sky in the distance is dark with rain

When you've learnt the language you can take the test I'm happy to say that as a proper Black Country mon I got 10 out of 10

And when you've mastered the lingo he's a little story for you. With Christmas round the corner it's quite appropriate.

Why was the letter "H" ever invented, not used much up ere either?
But it does exist in "Homour", notice humour, that's our, not or.
I wonder why different thing make different nations laugh, well, differently.
