I was born in Lancashire ( where the great are born ) but moved down south as a baby.
I can pick up a Lancashire accent in less than a week .

Everyone has an accent, they just think it's other people! I still sound Scottish, after 50+ years in Yorkshire, but I've never had a problem being understood.  I never had a broad Dundee accent, my parents would have disowned me! The dialect is almost indecipherable to outsiders.  

OH sounded like me when we met, he'd consciously changed his Southern accent when he moved to Scotland as a kid.  Being a Sassenach was a good way to get beaten up back then.  Now he sounds much more English, more Southern than our kids, who were brought up here.  They have northern English accents, but they'd be hard to pin down to a specific area, they've moved about a bit.

I have never had anyone fail to understand me but I have great difficulty understanding folk with strong accents, no Matt what their accent may be.

'where the great are born'

Did you miss a word out, Muddy?

[Mups]

But everyone thinks that we Yorkies are proper country bumpkins!

That's as maybe,  but there are farmers and country folk outside Yorkshire too. 
There are 'local' accents all over the country.   Look at the lovely Cornish for a start.

[Scrumpy]

I don't understand what they say round the Co-op sometimes... Well common... 😁 

[GrannyMac]

I don't know anyone in my part of Yorkshire that actually says 'ee bah gum'. But a lot preface everyone in their family's name with 'our'.  Our mam, our dad, our babby etc.  

Strange names here for rolls, they're called breadcakes.  

[muddy]

Barm cakes ?

[klondike]

Probably Lancashire but I'm unsure.

[Alex]

Batch cakes in these parts

[klondike]

We are boring - bread rolls (by my rules the soft ones) or cobs for the crusty ones. 

It gets posher for the long ones as they always seem to get called baguettes unless it's Subway then they go by length with footlong. 

Or bagietki baghete  etc. etc. for our various Eastern Europeans

[Alex]

or long roll  ?
