Page 1 of POLL: What accent you got?

Of course, you don't have an accent - it's everyone else who does.

(As usual, not enough options.)

I'm fairly accent neutral - tho with varying amounts of `estuary-ise` (tends to vary depending whom I'm talking to). I also say 'baaarth' rather than 'bath'. I class myself as Southern.

Neutral versions of every accent - think Menzies Campbell for Scottish, as opposed to broad Glaswegian or Richard Burton for Welsh, as opposed to Max Boyce.

Irish for me- southern irish to be more precise

I`m in no mans land

Scousers all think I`m a Manc
Mancs all think I`m a scouser

Plus most other people think I`m a scouser :/

I supposed I will go in the Northern section then. I doubt if there had been more options there would have been a Scouse/ Manc combo anyway :D

I`ve selected "Southern" as I come from Kent. But I don`t sound anything like people who live in Southampton! Definitely needed a South Eastern option! There really are so many dialects.

There is an old Kentish accent, which you hear more rarely these days. Bit like Norfolk accent I spose. Most `common` people have a horrible nasal estuary accent these days :/

Having lived in the Northants most of my life i would say i had a Midlands accent, but i have live in Sweden for the last 5 years so maybe it now has a slight Scandinavian twang to it.
