Good Morning, Whatcha Up To The Day?

[Alex]

I already told you. I don't have one. 

Neither do I    I'll try it later

[klondike]

Keep it short like I did 

[Alex]

testing testing....
That's not me 

[zoony]

I tried but it failed.. Is it my fault that I don't have a microphone?

[klondike]

I tried it with my tablet and you'd reckon I hailed from planet Skaro if I used that one.

[klondike]

In case my own accent is too thick...

Very posh Alex. There is a slight tell in the "is this posh enough".

[automatically pruned due to age]

[zoony]

There's a large tell in the way you pronounce 'slight'.. Seems to come from the Sou'west..?

[klondike]

You need to get them ears waxed mate. I have no accent at all 

[zoony]

Yeah.. You and everybody else that's asked.. Where you from then?

[klondike]

I was born in Northampton. Worked with people from all over. Lived in Rugby for nearly 15 years. Got moaned at for picking up an Essex accent. Had at least two different Glaswegian friends I drank with. I suspect mines all over the place.

Somebody I was talking to did spot Northampon immediately.

[Scrumpy]

Michael Rolls sounds like he comes from down here..
I picked up an accent on the word 'enough' from Alex..
klondike.. the same.. Or perhaps it was because he was repeating what Alex said..

  All very clever..

[Alex]

I thought klondike sounded Midlands

[klondike]

There's a very good reason for that.... 

[Alex]

I always thought Northampton was a bit north of London 

[zoony]

Isn't it??
So much for my cloth-ears, I had it down as educated Devonian or some such.
