East Anglian accent any good lol

In the USA, there are at least six distinct voice affectations available in our pronunciating of the speech we hear. ALL are certainly subject to being called "accents" to those not native to the particular mannerisms. 1. New England (or the NE US) a few syllabic inflections for changes from town to town and states; 2. Boston; 3. Southern with its variations from state to state; 4. Appalachian Mountain range folke and localities have many discernible intonations (& some nearly undefinable colloquialisms); 5. Central South which includes Texas and surrounding states; 6. West of the Rockies where we all speak clearly enough for all to understand.
My great Aunt used to say about some of her friends from Texas, "Let's get 'em livin' here 'n' we'll have 'em talkin' right in no time."
If anyone recalls "Festus Haggen" from "Gunsmoke" on tv in the 60's, in him I've reckoned that, "That there's a fine example of clearly sayin' what is to be said."

Adage: 2 things are certain in life; Death & Taxes. Therefore; God & Beelzebub had a meeting to fix the problem. A mighty storm prevailed for ages until finally they ended the storm with the agreement: From now on Anyone whom chooses doesn't have to die. "Everyone wins said Beelzebub. You get an eternally grateful bunch of worshippers praying forever for lower taxes as I goad & prod them forever with higher & higher taxation."

I've had several people try and place my accent. I'm originally from Connecticut, have family from Indiana, and have lived in the south for over 10 years. Oh, don't forget that depending on time of day I am more nasal because of major allergies. I've mistaken for midwest, New Jersey (sorry New Joisey), southern all my life (even though I know how to read lol.).........No I will not post a voice sample.

I say again, Aussies are the only ones without an accent.

I do love the Aussie accent (despite Oldfart's proclamations) and the first time Catch and I spoke on the phone, i melted. His voice still does that to me on the phone. He could read the phone book to me and I'd follow him anywhere.


(shhhhh.....don't tell, but i'll always love a real cultured southern accent.....and Scottish, too)

Are you talking northern Scottish or southern Scottish. Sean Connery is southern Scot right near the border and he sounds an awful lot like Patrick Stewart who is English. Farther north you go, thicker it gets.
