i find the welsh accent ok when girls have it, but worse for men.

A soft welsh accent on a girl is great :biggrin:

The Welsh accent is awesome. I love it. The norfolk accent can be quite funny as well

norfolk accent is funny, but thats not necessarily a good thing :smile:

your from hampshire... so, do you pronounce your "r"'s?

Irish pronounce their "r"'s so this might be the reason. i personally wouldn't confuse the two. Irish has loads more obvious traits.

Only on men. Southern girl + northern guy = perfect combination.

But the north is cold, so I will seduce a northerner and then make him live in Hampshire.

I don't get this whole 'the north is cold' thing, Newcastle is 400 miles from London - it's not the alps to the sahara!

I'm going to wear t-shirts in winter in Bristol just to prove that you're all mincers... :smile:

It's a totally different climate! When they say "temperatures between 18 and 24 degrees", you know they mean 17 in Newcastle and 25 in Winchester.

I went to York in April and it snowed, and I nearly froze to death.
