Hello there Spacemuse 
Orcus Master B. St. Patrick Granny Weatherwax and any other Brummies that may be here
I was thinkning that perhaps we should arrange some sort of official Brummie Club page or something, a collaborative thing perhaps? I mean there are lots of researcher groups on here, and I'm sure there are enough of us Brummies now for us to set up our own page?
I couldn't 'make' a badge myself, but I'm sure one of us can, or knows someone who can...
Anyone? 
Master B. which uni are you studying at?
Have fun and enjoy!

Hey don't leave 
Conversations on h2g2 go like this sometimes, people don't always come back within hours or minutes or even days often. I'm afraid I've been a bit busy to do much h2g2ing recently but you can rest assured I'm still around whenever possible
I don't think I'm the person do go around making graphics myself - I failed kindergarten art 
but I don't see why shouldn't have a brummie club here on h2g2 
Wonder how many of us actually are born and bred brummies though - I'm certainly not.

Hello Orcus (Notice the new spelling?)
*Gets up off the floor*
*Dusts off clothing*
Did you have to grab the ankles? 
I know that conversations can go that way sometimes, I wasn't being stroppy, I just wanted to know if anyone was there
I'm confused, how on Earth can you be too busy to do any H2G2ing? 
I don't understand... You can't possibly have anything in RL® more important 
I don't know for sure how many *genuine* Brummies there are on here, although I do know that St. Patrick is a thoroughbred like myself
I couldn't make any badges either, I can copy them just fine though 
Right I'm off to get a plaster 
to put on my now grazed knee 
Have fun and enjoy!

Hello Granny Weatherwax
I think that makes you a thoroughbred too doesn't it
How long ago did you move from Birmingham?
More importantly, do you still have the accent 
Have fun and enjoy!

I never really had an accent, we moved to Brum from Wales when I was young, and now I live near Manchester - carried away as a child bride

To answer a question that was posted a few days ago...I am studying at the *real* University, ie. not Aston or UCE (the only University which is named after the A-Level grades you need to get in )

The University of Birmingham (as we are more commonly known) is on the three-way point between Edgbaston, Harborne and Selly Oak (the good, the bad and the ugly, if you like).
University open days from tomorrow to Saturday. Come and have a look if you like

OK.
*dares to ask it*
St Patrick, I used to go out with a girl from Sutton Coldfield and she used to deny that it was part of Birmingham. So does it now count or was she just being a snob? I notice that Solihul doesn't seem to be included anymore.
Just wondering, Sutton seems pretty Brum like to me
