When all else fails ....

[whatho]

I spent many numerous days trying to draw Willie Nelson, and only after several of them did I notice that my drawing was dire in multiple and varied and wholly unrescuable ways. It was fairly sad. So this evening I drew Shah Rukh Khan again instead. I like drawing SRK.

I *love* that you were drawing Willie Nelson. I *love* Willie Nelson (in the - have always had his music around me ,cos of Dad way, as opposed to the actually knowing anything about him way).

I love slightly less that we don't get to see said Art, but you created* it nonetheless.


*Damn the Suffolk/Norfolk accent. We quite happily say Shew for the past tense of show and I know that's wrong, but it has left me confused as to the past tense of draw...

Shew! That's lovely. Draw, drew, have drawn. It should totally be show, shew, have shawn.

Willie Nelson went so wrong and I don't understand how I failed to notice until I'd done loads of him and BOO. He doesn't really look like Willie Nelson at all. He looks like a cliched and mildly insane old fisherman. I love Willie Nelson too though. I was lucky enough to see him in concert in Liverpool in 2002 or something and it was fairly amazing.

I'm never 100% sure which expressions are our local 'dialect'and which are general slan terms.

Do 'normal' people use "go" for "said"?

As in:

I shew him my work, and he gew "I really like that", so then I gew to him that he culd have it if he wanted...

I've heard that: 'goes' though rather than gew.
