I get this all the time with living pretty much right on the border. I call it Scwelsh (scousey-Welsh)  |

Deeside has overturns of scouse, which to a certain extent also applies to the Wrexham accent. Or on the other hand does scouse have overturns of WELSH.
The North West Wales (Gwynnedd) accent especially the men is a little high pitched....like being grabbed by the balls. Also tendacency to answer questions with a "yes no" |

"Can't beat a proper welsh accent
What is a proper Welsh accent, there are so many ?"
There are. I will say though that I have almost the stereotypical Welsh accent that people always use. |

"This is like when Americans say 'I love the British accent' "
More than likely an American would refer to our accent as english...
"Gee I love your english accent" to which us Welsh would reply "Gee its almost as nice as your Mexican accent maam" |
