[Magdalen] Enjoying a colleague's accent

[ROGER STOKES]

Yep, Geordie.  I thought that the term applied only to places in Tyne and Wear but then discovered it does include the Northern part of County Durham, which certainly includes Chester-le-Street, which is only about 10 miles from where my son and his family live now.  Newcastle and Gateshead are the big magnets in that area.

 I'm currently working with a group that includes a colleague with an
accent I originally thought was Scottish, but quickly it became
obvious it's a northern English one. I'm thinking Geordie? He's from
Chester-le-Street.

He ends most sentences with a "yeh?"
