Text doesn't carry an accent (but sure does carry some dialect, we all know the craic with that!) - so curious what folks think of the good ol' Blighty tone? :)

Hadn't really thought of that! Well, even if people share their thoughts on which grind their gears or which tickle their fancy. It's something I've never really thought about. I know the Americans love a blighty accent (southern (the legible kind)), and I know too well the French (parisians specifically) would prefer to stab anyone north of Calais for simply thinking about speaking :P

Anyone else think different English accents carry different stereotypes? More than different Irish accents.. like, the Cockney's are seen as cheeky chappys, liverpudlians..scallys lol, upper class accent, smooth and suave..conversing
