not so much mine, but local accent here isnt great; kinda unpleasant to folk elsewhere i guess although you do get used to it. took me 20 years lol. mine is a mismash of several i guess as i moved about a lot so picked up a bit of every. not saying its good tho. so just mishmash scottish which i can change to irish at times if in mood lol
I went to a private school in Bristol and received elocution lessons there. Moved around a bit, attended a couple of Universities, so I'm not sure how I sound to others - probably well spoken but not posh.Quote:

Several years ago my head of (secondary school science) department told me that I got on well with the kids because I spoke "Estuary English".
Bastard; I liked to think that I had good relationships with the pupils because, unlike him, I wasn't an ineffectual twat :)
so you were the life and sole of the party then:eyebrows:Quote:
