Being a boaty person when you speak to strangers do you put on an act pretending to be wealthy? (although the bank manager is after your hide!) or speak your county local accent?

in about 1991 I was just leaving the showers in Porthmadog sailing club. At that time I had a broader accent than I do now. I am from the Wirral which has a teensey resemblance to Liverpool from those not from the area, to scoucers we are woolybacks (??)

Anyway, one of the two showers was not getting hot as I remember and I said this to the two guys who had just entered the room. One of the prats turns to the other 'Bloody hell, a scoucer in a sailing club'.

If having a plum in your mouth makes you also like these two cretins then you can keep it. I always consider myself as a fisherman who likes sailing. I am not a yachtie and will not socialise with these types of people.

rant over.

Eminating from RHYL , I usually retort with a bit of Welsh and a scouse accent."Or right der la ,Cymru am byth"Sorts out the"plumbsuckers" One should always communicate using ones natural accent.There again ,I say if one normally has a bent for rounded vowels one should continue in that vein as long as one is not offensive, what!

Hmmm...have to admit Geordie I like Irish beer the best....But Scots brew the best alcohol!

Anyway we are slipping away from my main thread title......Do you play posh when you are not OR just be your natural self?

G'day Brian, how yar goin.

Strewth not another Aussie who can't speak NewZild. Makes us as cross as cut snakes us having to talk in Strine to you in the lucky country like this so's youse can understand.

This T_S mate is as cunning as a dunny rat with his sucking plums thread. He's no mug I reckon. A kick up the freckle is what I say to the posh talking ant's pants.

Yer barbies going ok and getting some cold ones there I hope? Bet yer got yer sunnies on over there as dry as a dead dingo's donger while its been raining here for a month of sundays and everyone's been getting narkie. But she'll be right here soon mate 'cos we are shoot'n thru sailing for a few weeks and she'll be a pearler then and just the bush telly to look at.

Better stop yacking in case I end up talking like this all the time (doing it in Oz is bad enuff) /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif. See youse.

John
