The most disconcerting is an asian born and bred in Glasgow, my mind just can't cope with what I'm seeing and hearing.

i love irish accents, also cockney can be funny. a guy from gloucester (sp?) at work has a hilarious accent too, but the office staff are from west brom which is possibly the most irritating accent i have ever heard, especially on a woman.

The worst has got to be the Birmingham accent---it really grates in your eardrums---the best has got to be GEORDIE

Personaly I think the pomy accent is quite amusing, sort of like a cross between chinese and a ventriliquist with his copulary gland caught in a vise, however it seems to amuse me after a few beers, quite a few that is.

I see furry is doing his bit towards international peace and harmony week.LOL
Personally, I like the variety of accents in the world. The only trouble is it is really embarrassing if someone is talking to you and you say pardon?, then second and third time round you still don't get it. I love to listen to the Scottish accent but I have a friend who is Scottish and her husband's accent can be really hard to understand at times.
What on earth is a scouse accent?

Liverpool and second only to Brummie as grating

I don't like the scouse accent, or the broad scottish really hard to understand.

brian c · Post by **brian c** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 4:58 pm

It's that hard Scots accent that ends every sentance with"Jimmy" or if there annoyed "see you Jimmy"

One of the most nicey accents is Australian. It mixture of all British accents and sheep. (they bleat a lot)

The worst accent ever has got to be the Cockney accent of Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins------"Cor blimey Mary Poppins"

Weren't the Beatles from liverpool? They sounded sort of cute, from (distant) memory.
Although who did the Thomas the Tank engine voice? Was it Ringo Starr? He sounded okay to me, quite clear. Is that the scouse accent then? I don't mind it, if it is.

brian c · Post by **brian c** » Fri Feb 11, 2005 10:15 pm

Yes it was and what you doing watching Thomas the tank engine

your not an anorak are you

sherri · Post by **sherri** » Fri Feb 11, 2005 10:19 pm

What's an anorak? I thought it was some sort of parka or coat?
I never watched much of Thomas the tank engine but my son used to like watching it years ago. It was like a Tv show, cartoonish.

An anorak is somebody who tends to do normal things in life and just be ordinary, I'll get shot to pieces over that one, and as for your son watching Thomas the tank engine it won't do him any harm like a lot of the weird kids programmes.
