Manc accent confuses hi-tech devices

[Paul powers moustache]

The most unrecognised word by the gadgets was " Goodbye "

What the fuck do they expect , That word is not in the vocabulary of the average macunian

Not only have we got our own unique regional accent we allso have our own dialect and goodbye is more like " See Ya" or "Later "

athough I don't have a strong accent I am yet to find an automated telephone system that understands what I say, I have been on hold to vodafone for over an hour once just to pay a bill because the automated system kept saying it didn't understand me and hanging up on me
