    I hear ya,

    We are normal, everyone else just has variants.

    I must say though, I made friends with people in the barmy army, and hung around them on friday. I have never felt so Aussie in my life. I sounded like Steve Irwin. And they even nicknamed me 'aussie'

    She couldn't understand how he could possibly have spoken English his whole life since he has an accent :? She said "I know you speak English NOW, but what did you speak before?" :roll: :lol:

    words fail me. :roll:

    I believe Black Diamond called my accent "exquisite". 8-) American men always love my accent.

    I've met a couple of very hot Kiwi men and now I'm quite fond of their accents. :shifty: I heard a Kiwi at the shop the other day and my head spun around -- well hellllllo there!! :mrgreen: Such small differences....but so hot! :lol:

    Look at me, look at me.

    My Aussie cousin Kim sounds exactly like "Kim". She thinks I sound funny, but man she has got the strongest Aussie accent I have ever heard. :lol:
