I notice accents alot when at work. I live in Shropshire near the Ironbridge and we have huge numbers of visitors to the area who come to see the world famous bridge and visit the the area and come shopping. It also helps that I have lived in lots of places so can recognise different tones. I'm told though that I don't have a Brummie accent although that's where my family comes from, maybe that's due to being married to a soldier and moving around alot. |

I don't notice any accent here in Australia but when I'm in the UK it's very noticable to everyone including me. It will turn heads in small villages and I get asked all sorts of questions while other customers are ignored. Including my OH who has still got his NE England accent. |

Do you like yours? Do you find people 'Class' you according to your accent. |
