My pal had to go to Bruges a few weeks ago - for a works conference about "Health & Safety" - he says it's crap and they must have been very cafeful where they filmed the scences - so maybe not a great holiday destination!

I'm seriously worried now that it is the Fife blood clouding our minds!

Really, my sis went there a few xmas's ago and said it was everything she had imagined. She said it was absolutely beautiful..
I suppose parts of it are in fact a ****-hole though :D

Neutralized American Accent

Maybe my mate's conference hotel was in a **** part (new bit) and he said he only saw the centre one day - I'm not put off yet - he was essentially working and not on hols.

what does that mean? a bit Phili but neutralised by London?!

I was actually thinking about this one recently because I haven't got the strongest of Irish accents. Suppose it's similar to Neil Jordan's but with a tiny bit of a Gabriel Byrne's mixed in.

Glad yer back pal. Garbiel is one of my fave actors so sounding like him is uber-cool

Great result for Algeria (shooosh don't shout it loudly!!!)

PS - don't look at the football forum or ye'll just get annoyed

Honestly, I'm still smiling about it, that and France being absolutely dire too. Great stuff.

And yeah, Gabriel is a legend. Haven't watched his American series though. Apparently he's fantastic in it.

Gabriel Byrne!!
*dashes off to Hot Guy Thread* :D

I'm going to try and avoid it for awhile. Who am I kidding? I'll have a gawk now!

Stop it Lee - not another of our Fife blood thingys

Mines the exact same as Josie's only not quite as strong because I've lived up north for several years now and picked up a bit of Manc/Scouse (I live in Manchester and my bf is a Scouser lol)

I love the Geordie accent, scouse and some Irish, and the Brizzle accent of course :laugh:

You never mentioned Scottish Miss Kit :-(

You're on ignore now :hugesmile:

Hahaha sorry Claymores :p

Who said that? is Fantastico back? I like her

How are you quoting me if I'm on ignore :p Fantastico is still here in spirit ;)

As if I'd ignore you silly Manc bird!

I have a nottingham Accent, its kinda weird xD

I couldn't imagine you with a Josie accent Michelle, you look like a manc lol

My pal works in Nottingham - so I've been there a few times - I don't know now to classify the accent - it is neutral English

I'm a Westcountry bird that's flown North :laugh:

I look like a Manc?! Haha never been told that before, everyone always says I look like a farmer type to go with my accent, or Italian :hugesmile:

Yet yer cider out for the boys! West Country to me just means the Wurzels!

Manc at heart :D Do you swagger as you're walking through Manchester? lol

Hahahahaha! Swagger me? Never ;)

You're mad fer it

"Stagger" is more like it after a few bevs

You know me too well :)

Like that but not as manly

oh favorite accents are Northern Irish and Scottish, also I like the Manchester accent and the Russian accent, I like harsh sounding ones

I don't really have an accent, I'm from Northampton.
My favourite accent has got to be Jamaican though.

Hi Niamh :wavey:
God he's got a lovely voice.. I could listen tio him for hours!

I live in Limerick, Ireland and my accent is quite complicated, where I live most people speak pretty slowly and have dire pronunciation, I speak a little bit faster than everyone else but still slow :p Nobody here can pronounce th properly and most of the time it comes out as d, our t is very soft, almost s-like. Sometimes we ad syllables to our words for example 'car' would be pronounced 'kee-ar'. Sometimes there is a slight rolling of r when speaking quickly but that happens rarely.

I can't find any videos on the internet of people who talk like me and I seemed to have explained that in a very complicated fashion. :(

Haha.. I understand what you mean though! :)

Haven't got one I don't think but I'm certain I don't have the taffy Welsh accent. I hate it so much, all my dad's family have it. I'd love a Scottish accent though, a mixture between this Iain guy from CBBC and Gerard Butler would suit me fine. :)

how about Diarmuid Jess?

I don't know what kind of accent I have,no one here thinks I sound very Irish but when I go to England they think I sound Irish.

Yorkshire yorkshire yorkshire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He sounds like a farmer Niamh! D:

lol, he's got a Limerick accent though hasn't he?
