BOOOO!!! BOOOO, sir!
So what do you do with the rest of your time? Maybe I shouldn't ask...
You wonder why the Scottish and Irish are nations of drunks, there's your answer.
The cockny British accent is kind of the low-class one, isn't it? I can't do that one to save my life. The one that the royals have is the sophisticated one. I could listen to it all day
It's scary how many accents there are in the British Isles. Ireland, feck, Northern Ireland, probably has as many distinct accents as the whole US. England has even more than that - every town and city has a different twang, some being vast gulfs apart. No one's going to confuse a Derry accent with a Lurgan one or a Belfast one, and no one mixes up a Geordie with a Scouser.
The Royals, I think they put that on. No one talks like without generations... of... inbreeding... Oh.
