I used to love listening to the snooker player Terry Griffiths being interviewed on TV, a very soothing Welsh accent, I could listen to him speak all day.

Love the N East accent, love the Welsh accent, love the Irish accent, love the real Scottish accent, hate the N Irish accent (with a passion) hate the Glasgow accent...can't say I really understand what they are saying.

Re: Audio Forum.

What accent is WUMs May?
I can understand most accents, but have difficulty with coarse Scottish dialogue.
Irish, Welsh, Geordie are nice on the ear, but the accent I like most is mine!
