This website is a crackup.* Funny Translations. You select a dialect, type in a phrase or sentence, and it gives you a translation into a variety of UK dialects.

I can't really say how accurate it is for most of the dialects, but the Ali G one completely cracks me up. Maybe you authentic UK dialect speakers can weigh in on how accurate it is.

Here's an example:

Phrase: What do you say?

Ali G: Wot did yous say? Is it coz I is black?
Irish: Waaat ye say?
Scouse: Wa' did yous say?
Yorkshire Chicken Run: Wha' did theur seh?
Brummie: What did yaouw soy?
Geordie: Wot did yee sa?
Scottish: Whit did ye say?
Posh: I'm terribly sorry but what did you, one's old bean, seay?

Phrase: You are a very pretty girl.

Ali G: Yous iz da well fit bitch.
Cockney Slang: Ya 're a very pretty twist n twirl
Irish: Yer are a pure juicy lassy.
Scouse: Yer a dead pretty bird.
Yorkshire Chicken Run: Theur are eur reeight pretty lass.
Brummie: Yoo miskin a well pretty wench.
Geordie: Yas a geet bonny lass.
Scottish: Ye ur a huir uv a bonnie quinie.
Posh: You, one's old bean, aaare ah jolly pretty filly. Oh stop it! You tease!

If you find some translation particularly funny, throw it up here for all to enjoy.

* Okay, so I played with it for all of 10 minutes. If it sucks, feel free to tell me allllll about it!

Because I have bleary eyes, I thought the last dialect was Polish for a while...

Do wha'?

I think a Cockney would more likely say, "You're well tasty, treacle. If yer gonna drown them pups, can I 'ave one?"
