windmills 'He'yer fa'got a dickey, bor?' isn't rude... in Norfolk

Item: #540, Posted: 23/3/06
There is an article in The Times today about a plan to preserve the Norfolk dialect via a Local Heritage Initiative grant to schools. The article is illustrated with a photo of "Eric Edwards, 63, one of the last of the Norfolk reed cutters whose traditional country dialect is being revived", on a reed cutter's boat in front of a Broadland windmill. (Looks to be Turf Fen again).
