Haha maybe :tongue:

Apparently we (Coventry) sound like posh brummies.

My cousin lives in Cov, and the rest of my family comes from Birmingham and yup, I'd say that's about right :lol:

I wrote "cinemar" because that is how a lot of the people I know pronounce it -__-

I though we had more of an East Midlands accent like Notts.

I hate it when you don't want to tell someone your grade and they automatically assume that it was a bad grade.

I don't really wanna tell people my results if I do really well because of fear of sounding cocky.

I don't see why it's a problem, it's how you say it.

I'm gonna say (if I get good grades)

"Some good grades. I'm really happy actually, glad it's all over now..."

Then if they ask specifics:

"ummm, I passed them all, and I.got (list subjects with no A*) and A*s in the others"

True, but I'll probably just forget that and sound arrogant. There is no way to say I got x amount of A*s and sound modest.

My favourite way so far was a friend of mine a couple of years back who posted on Facebook:

"Only managed one A at GCSE." (this was his status)

After a few stunned replies, he commented: "The rest were A*s!"
