    The slag heap featured at the end, known locally to us as kids as Black Rock, was a haunt we used to frequent as teens regular, a great memory there.

      I made a video of this place years ago. I thought the place was called ladymoor slag heap. th-cam.com/video/x66Cn8bKGyQ/w-d-xo.html

      @@blackcountrywalker Not sure, we just used to as kids call it Black Rock, we still do refer to it as Black Rock. But I think it's just a name us locals called it that lived close by

    When Satan stood on Brierley Hill and far around him gazed,
    He said: “I never more shall feel at hell’s fierce flames amazed.

      And when them flames borne from the forge,
      Licked Satan's arse as if to purge
      The residue his dark mind had to devise.
      He turned his face; Them Black Country folken was already awise...

    Even though I'm proud of my brunmie accent, it's been my archilles heal since I started teaching English in Spain! Due to brummies not travelling a lot, 99% of people I've taught or tried to teach say theyve never heard a brunmie accent before. Some think Peaky Blinders is one way or picking up some brummy, but not many stick with it! I've many a time thought of just looking for another job!!!!
