I really love it in Scotland but I can't take some of the accents. Especially a really broad Glasweigan. Simply because I can't understand a fucking word. |

I know what you mean about when you go elsewhere. My accent isnt that strong really, although it seems to get a lot stronger when i'm drinking for some reason. If im anywhere outside of the North East though I think i automatically dumb it down a lot so they can understand me better.
Against my better judgement I have tried Haggis yes. I didn't like it but I didn't ever expect to either I don't mind the accents of most Scottish people at all, it's just I really cant understand very broad Glasweigan. I used to work in a call centre, the indian lads and the Glasweigans were always entertaining. Neither could understand a word the other was saying at all. |

I'm from Sunderland so I have a mackem accent. Most people cant tell the difference between that and a Geordie accent unless you actually live up here. Mine can be sometimes be more Geordie than Mackem as well I think if im really pissed.
It was BT I worked for. They moved a lot of it out to India. At one time I worked on a department that was specifically for people who had complained and demanded to speak to someone in the UK. Kinda backwards, but whatever. |

1. Favourite sexual position and why?
Meh, so long as its good and I have a pretty face to look at. 2. What is the best punishment for a convicted child molester? Castration, flagellation, incineration. Take your pick. 3. You only have one MB member to share the rest of your life with. Who and why? Eh, probably Ethan since he was my mentor 4. If you could be one musician, who would you be? Matt from Matt and Kim. I want to be on a constant stream of blow like they are. 5. What life experience would you like to sample having never tried before? World travel, though I've already been to Europe. 6. Name one single thing that annoys you most about the opposite sex. The way most of them talk. |
