Yes and the big debate of how one pronounced scone.

The jokes about whether we had electricity up North when I visited London however are not missed.


Complaining is what us Brits do. There is always something to complain about.

Yes Amber, the letter u.
Americans don't use it, for example color

Ooooh we're all northerners!

I go to university down south and people take great amusement in mocking my pronounciation of certain words.

I also find their is a great deal of debate surrounding mealtimes... i.e. "breakfast-dinner-tea" vs "breakfast-lunch-dinner"

My niece had amusement for a while because I sometimes say 'reet' instead of 'right'

You are quite close to me I think Tamy I'm not very good with a map

I think I'm about an hour and 20 mins away from you, Ambs!

I can't read a atlas. I got a big fat F in Geography practice exams at school. I got told not to take it at GCSE level, or anything higher!

to bed!

I do that too sometimes

I always get bullied for harsh "u" sounds...like duck and pub...


Teehee...I have a pretty mild accent though really.

Midlands.... you're cutting it fine Tamy on whether you are cool or not.
We'll let you off though.

My accent is picked at constantly at college. I have been informed several times that it is not a British accent.

I had one guy insist I was Irish. He made me say 'top of the mornin' to you' before kindly informing me that I wasn't Irish!
Thanks bud, who knows how I would have coped without being told I wasn't Irish.

Oh and just so everybody knows Scotland is actually below England. Silly us, we have been looking at the map the wrong way up for years.
