What strange weather we’re having.  yesterday on the beach in a T-shirt and today it’s brass monkeys’.  I have been using Google voice and it appears that they have a recognition system that can pinpoint accents.  The first time I used it i must have been a little irate as I was using me Sawf London accent and now the thing won’t recognize anything unless I lapse into the vernacular.  If I use the Queen’s English it gives some hilarious suggestions.  They may be the source of my next article.  Also it refuses to understand me when I speak Spanish which has dented my confidence no end.  It keeps telling me that I like Chicago, for some obscure reason, no matter what question I ask it.
