I say, how does a thread get nominated for a spotting?

Right now I’m picturing Eliza Dolittle as a crack head - with the whole gov’na thing. It’s cracking me up.

Now, I say, old chap, no need to get shirty about the Queen of Mystery and all that, what? Least said, soonest mended, what what? Mustn’t grumble about those who don’t know their betters, they’re ever so cheeky–butter wouldn’t melt in their mouths! Sorry to bother.

Ta ta! cheerio-bye!

Now that was brilliant!

I know a woman, friend of Mrs P, who grew up in Yorkshire, educated in Cambridge, worked in London and now lives in Oxford who starts off sentences with “I say”.
