serenity now ...

tonight's mantra: i will not post HP without a green light from a genuine British person.

repeat until urge to do so goes away.

this is not, as you might expect, a reaction to reading too much (or indeed any) HP-fic-with-dialect-issues. except inasmuch as being aware that the problem exists, i refuse to risk compounding it ... so my own HP stuff strains at its leash until such time as i get the notice that i'm good to go.

Have you been following the very amusing discussion (http://www.livejournal.com/users/isiscolo/86348.html) going on at [livejournal.com profile] isiscolo's LJ on Britpicking, etc. (Or is it what's motivating your post?)

This being said, I can certainly help you with the Britpicking if you've got no-one else (went to boarding school there, worked there.) I might let a piece of dialect pass, but not a situation...
