I don't really have an accent sometimes I sound like I have a plum in my mouth, but the Hampshire hog rarely comes out

I've got a bit of a non-accent. I'm definitely Westcountry, but beyond that, as it isn't all that strong (apart from on the letter 'r' sometimes). It's been said that the biggest giveaway that I was born in Bristol isn't how I sound but how I look... (think there might be a rhyming slang issue there, though...)

And here's Mae Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau for non Welsh speakers (John Redwood could've done with this)
My hen laid a haddock one hand oiled a flea, Glad farts and centurions threw dogs in the sea. I could stew a hare here and brandish Dan's flan, Don's bloody bog's blocked up with sand.
Dad! Dad! Why don't you oil Aunty Glad, Can whores appear in blue bottle pies, Oh butter the hens as they fly.

I've seen variations on Mae Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau before, but that's the best. I have tea coming out of my nose.
I think the two things are related...

we can do a swop then Cheesey, although I'm not sure if mine can be described as a lilt. I was once told I was "excessivly Scottish" ROFL!!! 'Excessively Scottish'! I love it!! ;D In which case, I must be 'excessively English', as I have what I believe is described as the 'standard formal English' accent.

Oh dear. Looks like James has commented again. James has dissed poster Jane and told her: "That has got to be the worst poem I've ever read. No offence"... Poor Jane, just cos she did the roses are red thing... ;D I can't find this comment on the Telegraph commets, what column was it posted in I mean the date etc? PS. Strange way it has come out on the Telegraph, it looks like it is part of Dan's comment...you know how James' reply comments are posted in the same way as everyone elses? Not this time I don't think. PPS. Check out Janet's (not Janes) reply post.
