Dearest skt, how long have you lived in London and how do you manage to keep your accent? I was watching that video by the London bomber whose practically from my home town up north, and I was like “ay-up he’s got a propa northern accent, I used to talk just like that.” But having lived here going onto 7 years, I’ve almost all but lost my west-yorkshire inflection. I sound like a reet southern pansy. It’s really getting on me tits cos I now pronounce ONE, as WAN, instead of WUN. Little things like that. Do you have to try to sound Scottish or are you just better than me?
Regards,

i have similar problems myself, officer dibble. sometimes i fear that people will think i'm being like madonna and trying to talk like an english person, but really it's just that i got sick of people giggling every time i said 'pants.'
oi. i heard that. you just giggled, didn't you?

Dear kuz.
Try not to speak to or indeed have any sort of contact with Londoners. If one of them tries to start a conversation with you, ignore them. If they do not take the hint use violence. I have been here for nearly 2 years but only ever live with or drink with my own kind. That helps. I have slipped a little though and found myself saying innit when i'm not even taking the pish. And thats fuckin hindu or something. Best of luck.
skt.

rnh! definitely suicide tuesday.
don't you love it when the money people don't send an invoice when they're supposed to and then the client gets angry and doesn't yell at the money people but yells at you instead?
'yes sir, i understand completely that you will never do business with our company again and, furthermore, do not blame you in the slightest.'

Dear skt,
Thanks very muchly for the advice. In the past it’s been a reet hassle locating the Yorkshire diaspora in London, but sometimes I think I don’t try hard enough. I actually think I’ve been avoiding my own kind out of shame and hanging with southerners cos I thought they were “cooler”. I realise now that I’m a self-hating-northerner. This matter has to be readdressed after some soul-searching. However I feel its ok for me to say “innit” all time, being a Pakistani rude boy, as my kind use that phrase up and down the land.
Many thanks,

I have a lovely soft scottish brogue and would hate to lose it, I think peoples accents are wonderful. except Glasgow thats not wonderful thats tinky.

i work very hard to maintain moy aussie accent ay. watching lots of kath and kim and fangin for a saddaday arvo sess with a propa aussie chick slash partner in visual crime helps heaps ay.
but i must admit i say flip flops instead of thongs now for obvious reasons. also i say "YOG-urt" instead of "YO!ghurt" which i'm frankly ashamed of.
