We used to  recite: "Neuter gender, hopeless case, subject to a bulldog 
face."  To what end, I don't recall. One thing I do recall is that on any 
bus journey around this place I  hear the most illiterate speech from youths 
of both sexes.  It's not an accent, or a dialect - it's just bloody drivel, 
mostly incomprehensible.
