Somehow, [livejournal.com profile] david_bowie doesn't sound like he's played by an actual british person.

Just a feeling.

And the "you blokes" thing sounds like a literal translation Britification of "you guys," whereas I think a true Brit would rather say "you lot" (as I do), yes?

Yes. And sometimes even "you guys". (Brification? Good for Zobo Creat, perhaps?)

Re:


**nodnod** I usually say "you lot" because some people take offense to "you guys" and I cannot bring myself to say "y'all". But yes, certainly not "you blokes".

(And feel free, if you're serious. It's a verb: to Britify.)
