Probably general Lancashire accent. But like to think I don't sound as "oop narth" as a lot of others.

Cork accent - calmed down somewhat by living in a lot of different places over the years.

Still an awful accent, always cringe when I hear it on radio or TV (it = the Cork accent - not necessarily spoken by me!)

I just have a very average mid-atlantic American accent, which in my opinion is not an accent at all.

I just pronounce the words as they are written. I grew up in Northern Virginia, sub-urbs of Wash. DC. I sound like the generic cookie-cutter American, no specific accent.
