OTOH, when I was at Leeds Uni in the late 1960s, it took me 3 months to begin to understand "broad Geordie", having been accustomed to Southern England "English" upto to that point (Was not only "foreigners" that didn't talk "English" English then ;))
Were there lots of Geordies at Leeds Uni then?....'cause Leeds isn't near to Newcastle...
