Western Spain and Costa de la Luz
Accents are amazingly contagious.
My wife picks them up in a very short space of time, even when they are alien to her.
Me, with a London background, lost a lot of my East End vernacular at grammar school, and my mother's influence to talk proper.
But, anecdotally, I caught the Welsh valleys accent indirectly, by marriage, the wife's family coming from that neck of the woods.
I happened to get a few weeks of consultancy near Newport and stayed in a local pub.
I was very quick to slip into the "tidy", "there's lovely" and "duw, duw", chat.
Son's in-laws are farmers up in the hills above Barnsley, so I am greeted with "Aaaaaaaaah, ow do?", when visiting.
Here in wild West Spain we are immersed (integrated) to the extent that our daughter, a fluent Spanish speaker and in Madrid, chuckles at our campesino (country folk) corruption of Castellano.

:greetings-wavingblue: Welcome :text-welcomewave:

I worked at Stourton (Leeds Containerbase) for @ 10 years before I joined the Fire Service. I used to go to Rothwell motor auctions in my lunch hour.

Congratulations on your new ride. Smile time :thumbup: now, let’s see some pics :D

Welcome :greetings-wavingblue: You should get yourself up to Blakey ridge for the annual Yorkshire meet next month. It’s a great day out and you get to meet and see some more Z owners alike!

Thanks DKZ, Renegade :thumbup:

A nice trip out to Newmillerdam today. Spoiled only by the lime green Lamborghini Huracan parked next to me, that put me somewhat in the shade.

Who the hell drives a lambo in Wakefield?!?

I'd be interested in the Yorkshire meet next month - where do I find out more?

Off back to the Car People tomorrow - my boot button at the back has come loose... :-x

Yorkshire meet viewtopic.php?f=16&t=11959

Sadly, I am away for this years meet, but it’s definitely worth the trip.

As for the Lambo, there was a car show in the centre of Wakefield today, loads of customs cars, modded classics, sports etc, supercars, Green Lambos :crazy:

Ah, that'll be it then. It was a nice lambo, tbf...

Thanks for the link - will see if I get a pass from the wife.

I'm new here, so not fully explored the forum yet - is there an idiot's guide to RCZ cleaning anywhere? I'm looking for tips on cleaning the arches, and getting rid of a few niggly marks...

Thanks again!

So, depending on the level you intend to achieve, Kerry (RCZ1) wrote a very comprehensive guide to detailing your car. You can cherry pick the bits you fancy tackling.
