One of the best things my old man's family do (they're sarf London, to the core) is drop the 'M' or 'A' from any discussion of car journeys (B roads don't get a mention). 'Yeah, yeah, well, I had to come up the free, join the twenny five and straight onto the facking fore - always get mixed up between that and the facking forety'. I could listen all day.

I also confuse the M40 and M4, related to this last month I dropped my wife off in Basingstoke, which I thought somehow was "on the way" from Cambridge to Stratford-upon-Avon, an overdue look at a map afterwards revealed the three places form an equilateral triangle.

I can identify them in the context of their respective work but if they were part of a lineup I'm not sure I could tell the difference between Russell Hitchcock and Leo Sayer and John Panozzo and Ron Palillo and Richard Simmons and Slim Goodbody.
