I backpacked around your <strike>island</strike> country for half a year. Your penchant for crushing multiple words into a single syllable is unacceptable. Your manner of speech is an affront to all English speaking countries of the world, including 'Merika. It is so bad, that once I was asking directions to the town of Port Fairy. The woman I asked responded with a jumble of consonant and vowel sounds that resembled this <blockquote>R'ownd these pahts, we jus call 'er Port</blockquote> Which I responded with <blockquote>Ah, sorry, we just called 'er 'P' where I come from</blockquote> She nodded sagely and agreed that was a superior abbreviation of the towns name. Of course, she then invited us in for tea. Served some Tim Tams and the best baramundi we'd had in weeks. After promptly declaring us part of her extended family, we had to pry ourselves from her hospitality to make our way down to 'P' for the wonderful folk music festival.
