Am I the only Limey round here who talks like a total estuary pikey? I was gonna post my accent, but now I'm thinking I'd need 6 months worth of elocution lessons to sound half as posh as you guys.
That's not really them. They all hired beeb announcers and members of the peerage to do their spots for them.
I was surprised at how un-Yorkshire tommydski sounded. Hard to believe he really supports Leeds.
*cough*

Quit stalling Barry and pony up! I sound like Bob effing Harris. Let's be having some estuary.
(I'm not remotely posh either - more sort of rural serfdom, there wasn't a lot of accent around where I grew up.)
This thread needs more regional tones - where's Rysie when you need him? or maybe John C3 and Earwicker as the
bra men.

I was born in Leeds, grew up in the east end of London.
No idea how I came by this voice.
When people tell me they have a hard time placing my accent, I usually tell them 'educated'.
Yeah I'm not a nice guy frankly.

It's a joke. I'm pretty stupid.

I need a place to host the audio file or I could send It to your email address.

I think it's because the first thing you upload is supposed to be a picture of you.
Pretty gae.
Use sendspace.
