I have no idea who the Clonmelians are... but I'll nod and smile!

They sound like a cross between chamelions and some extra-terrestrial race you'd find in Dr Who!

Anyway, I'm from Peterborough which is, to say the least, quite a way from Ireland! I've never been, but will be going in the autumn, although not quite sure where yet!

On the case of accents, Peterborough has a distinctly dull, "I could come from anywhere in England" accent, of which our only trademark seems to be the tendency to drop our "t"'s, which drives me insane if anyone does it!

I think I'd rather have an accent, be it a bit ugly, so you can say "Oh, you're from ___" rather than just being the male version of a linguisticly plain Jane!

Wow.... what a load of waffle I can create! I'm impressed, there's no need to revise for that English exam now... !
