It’s this sort of stereotype that pisses me off tbh I.e. West Country = thick. |

Me too, but I always get told I don't sound Brummie.
Mines a universal accent |

You should really hear a Bangor, County Down accent before deciding |

I like lots of accents tbh.
It seems the more I like a person, the more I start liking that accent.
Personally I can't stand mine, but feel free to give it a listen in the old vid I just made public. |

I do find some accents difficult to follow...a lady once introduced herself to me as a "yam yam girl" .....sensing my bemused look she went on "yam from Dudley"
....and I was born I Birmingham! |

There are a few variations in accent and dialects across Yorkshire. I'm from Doncaster and a number of years ago I worked in Sheffield, 20 miles down the road. At first I couldn't understand half of what they were saying. Then when I worked in Bradford it was as different again. As for Barnsley, it's a whole language in itself

Im the same, i dont have a strong Brummie accent, most people say i have a north american twang, which makes no sense since the closest I have been in that direction is Aberystwyth |

I too have a Yorkshire accent as I’m from Leeds originally. I hear is Yorkshire folk (on the news etc) and just hope and pray I don’t sound like that but I probably do.
Some Yorkshire accents are better than others though. Sheffield is ok to me as is Harrogate.
Luckily for me it seems that most women who are not from Yorkshire seem to like my accent…unless they’re just being polite I guess.
Anyway, si thi |

I hate my accent
It’s a cross of brissle n zomerset
As I was born Bristol and lived there until I was 10 then move to a hole in Somerset where I’ve been since!!
In a couple of old jobs I had to deal with a lot of farm folk so picked up the accent.
I like accents and impersonation of them
But I’m not that good lol |
