I had to convert Robbie into Black country dialect to understand it. The Black Country dialect (BCD) is a blend of several different dialects and languages, including Old English, Scandinavian, and Welsh While most Black Country Dialect words are also found in English in other parts of the world, BCD relies very heavily on words of Germanic origin. Four out of five words are Germanic, with virtually no Norse or Welsh, and a few words from French.

So Robbie in BCD is either "A wish fer a pressie to see misen like others see us." or "An 'ope fer a gift ter see misen as others see us."

I think I prefer Robbie in his original tongue.
