Quote of the Day: Stephen Fry

From The Fry Chronicles:


Some months later a student who had been educated at a comprehensive in south-east London told me that for weeks he had been unable to understand what "say gid" meant. He kept hearing it everywhere: "Say gid! That's jarst say gid!" Eventually he realized that it was how the upper middle-class pronounce "So good, that's just so good."
