My accent is best, of course!  8)

I have what I would guess Americans would call a British accent. Quite BBC, with an occasional, subtle bouquet of South London :)
Nah most foreigners mean the accent from shows like ER and friends and shit. The fake british acent. You have cockney accent im guessing Arta. I thought you lived more south than than London, near Brighton.

The Helen Baxendale 'English' accent is really not how we all speak. Unfortunately, that appearing in Friends does nothing to dispel the rumours....

Yes sober Irish exist. Irish just like to celebrate their "victories". :)

I'm not at all cockney. My accent's a bit posh by uk standards. I was under the impression that americans think we all speak like that :)
