Re: accents

The Geordie accent doesn't sound as sexy when Jimmy Nail (OZ in Auf Wiedersehn Pet) does it though...

Re: accents

I have a typical pompolian accent. My step sister in Texas has a lovely accent. A sort of slow drawl. Different from the west coast californian one.

Re: accents

There is nothing quite like a nice female light scottish accent.
It is a fine balance and there is nothing worse than, for example, the imposing cynical drone of someone like Muriel Gray.

Never said you did.After all I have a sort of Pomyey accent having lived in and around Portsmouth most of my life.

I was just giving it an historic perspective.
