As with all regional dialects, there are always words or phrases used by the Locals.  Norfolk is no different.  One of our favourites is Bishy Barnabee – Norfolk slang for Ladybirds.  It has been difficult to find out why but the  most popular thought seems to be a play on words from a Bishop Bonner Bishop Bonnerof East Dereham in the 16th century.  With his Catholic bright red cloak, thought to be connected.  However Bishops wear purple cloaks.  I guess we will never truly know.

Norfolks Fair Maidens song:

‘Bishy-bishy-barney-bee,

tell me when my wedding be,

if it be tomorrow day,

take your wings and fly away.

Fly to east and fly to west,

but fly to him that I love best’.’
