I have a fairly broad London accent (lived most of my life there). Non-Londoners would call it cockney, but to most East-Londoners my accent is probably nothing like cockney.

Seeing as I now live in Nottingham (East-Midlands) I would imagine my accent will slightly change. Although I don't say "Ey op, me dook" ("Hello, my duck" - quirky Midlands thing) yet.

I spent a lot of time a few years ago in chat rooms and subsequently calling some American and Canadian women (don't ask) - Most said they loved my accent but that's not surprising, because it's different.

The rest just couldn't understand me at all, hehe.

My favourite accent would have to be a "Sean Connery" Scottish accent. There are some broader Celtic accents that I can't stand, but most of them are very easy on the ear - Except Welsh - I hate that dialect.

I have a Boston accent. Generally I don't pronounce my Rs. And yes, when visiting relatives in some other part of the country they do have me say "Park the car in the Harvard yard", which, when said by myself, comes out to something like this - "Paak the caa in the Havad yaaad."

:\

By the way Unknown Sniper, which city in Mass do you live?

WTF is a heavy British accent?

As long as its not a spitting language, it can be pretty sexy, except maybe spanish, I am a bit worn out on that one.

In my younger days, I have been known to fall for "drunken country bimbo". ( awaits ed's reply)
