"They didn't have showers then, so they just used to come home covered in coal dust..."

A memory of #Oldham from our #Voices2016 tour in the #AccentVan.

"I don't think you could specifically say 'you're definitely from #Oldham'. Unless you was to use certain types of words I guess, that only Oldham use."

A clip from our #Voices2016 tour of #GreaterManchester in the #AccentVan.

'He didn't make fish or flesh'.
Idiom from one of the @BLSoundHeritage Oldham recordings held at @archivesplus. From 'make fish of one and flesh of another' - favouring one person over another. He treated people fairly. @VoicesMcr @VoicesofEnglish

Have you lived in one borough of #GreaterManchester for most of your life? If so, we need your voice!

We're particularly keen to find people from #Wigan, #Bury and #Trafford, although people from the other boroughs are very welcome to join in too!
