Do you have a strong regional accent ?

[bobhope]

Why is it that all regional English accents annoy people from other regions?

Geordies can't stand Cockney, Southerner's can't stand Scouse, etc. Is there an accent that everyone likes?

Commiserations. I'm sure there are specialists who can help you with that.

The cure is to move back to Geordie land but been down here too long now, I've been 'southernised'.

Geordie living in South Wales and currently working in Swindon. Apparently my accent now has elements of all three.

Worse one of those three is the Swindon bit - consider suicide now.

It's a temporary condition, just need to bathe in mild acid upon finishing this contract.

It's a fact of British life that we all basically hate each other.

In my village, the drooling pointy heads at the top end hate the pretend squires and 'weekenders' at the bottom and and vice versa. I live in the middle and hate them all. Bastards!

I don't begin to understand how thats phonetic.....

What sound are you implying with the H?
Is the Y a phonetic silence?

Would you be so kind as to elaborate for me?
