@process @FrankCannon @q00w2 Having grown up in Wales, moved to Scotland at 18 years old, having spent a lot of time with American and Australian folk, my accent is a real mix! The place I live has its own quirky accent too, so that comes out now and then. But it's funny, people still say to me, underneath all the mix, I still sound Welsh! I think it depends who I am speaking with at the time. I tend to mimic theirs a lot! Quite naturally, without trying.

Cut away all the scouse and all yer left with is more scouse. π

Well, to be fair, I'd need a translator too if I was in Alabamaβto understand them. π
@FrankCannon @homebird @process
"Not from around these here parts, is he?" Maybe you could try speaking to them in banjo β¦

You know you'd go viral if you made some YT shorts about your intercultural encounters..
@FrankCannon @LiseL @homebird @process
They'd prolly just send you to Canada. π
@FrankCannon @LiseL @homebird @process
It's like getting an upgrade, right? π
@q00w2 @FrankCannon @homebird @process
We have hideaways in the woods here too. You're always welcome!
@q00w2 @FrankCannon @homebird @process
Hideaways with health care...

The downside is that all the babes here would be swooning over your accent. Amy would be perpetually annoyed. π
@FrankCannon @q00w2 @homebird @process
Of course: it's universal. Nothing sexier than a Scouse accent. Except for a Donegal accent, a fact that has been proven by science. I believe we've discussed this before...π
@LiseL @FrankCannon @q00w2 @homebird
I'll have to remember to use my Country brogue then π
@FrankCannon @q00w2 @homebird @process
I know it. But here you sound like the fab four, so we swoon.

London in the 90s was great craic having a Northern Irish Accent.
"Hello do you know where..."

@LiseL @FrankCannon @q00w2 @homebird
travelling through airports, not much craic
"If you could please follow me sir"

Wow, hadn't thought of that. π¬
@LiseL @FrankCannon @q00w2 @homebird
Every feckin time. Having long hair and looking like I'd done a stint in Long Kesh probably didn't do me any favours tbh.
@FrankCannon @LiseL @q00w2 @homebird
It came in handy if someone started on you. Just start speaking and they backed down. But yeah, was never great speaking near a Policeman. 101 questions.
@homebird I haven't lived in Liverpool for over 40 years now,still have the accent.π @process @q00w2
