accents

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Well, Surrey has it's own little coterie of garbled speakers..the type who pronounce house as "hayse", for example. I suppose that's what happens when one takes it too far the other way..

I'm originally from Northern Ireland but have a bland Southern English accent. At least I've never picked up a real Devon accent.

I quite like a west country accent myself. What ever happened to Pam Ayres and The Worzels? :lol:

There's a thing up here about posh people in Edinburgh and Glasgow (although I think it refers more to somewhat pretentious, Hyacinth Bouquet types than anything) -

Exactly the type. They also have to live in houses called "The Gables" and "Willow Trees" when there is neither a gable nor willow tree in sight! About the same level as calling your house "Dunroamin'" which I would like to see made into a criminal offence. :evil:

Off topic, but a work colleague's friend named her house after her grandparents, Pat and Ella. You guessed it, the house is now proudly adorned with the name "Patella".

Not sure whether that qualifies for :lol: or :roll: .
