I am spectacularly south-east, which is true. I'm told I did go north of Watford once but I have erased it from my memory.

[Robinia]

Lol, I got 'massively Midlands'
True, I'm Derby/Nottingham.

[aelmpvw]

'spectacularly south east' but i'm in leicestershire

[pixie373]

...exactly the same as jno

[murraymints]

Ridiculously north....Scotland is !

[ferlew]

"Spectacularly South East"

[stewey]

I'm another south-easterner.

[Eve]

I got South East though, save working in Central London for a little while, I've mainly lived in the Midlands, Wales, Yorkshire and the North West so a bit of a fail for me :) That said, my accent is probably a bit confused!

[Gizmonster]

Hmmm ..... spectacularly south-east ...... not quite, I'm North West England and have lived here all of my life !!

[boxtops]

same as jno, which doesn't surprise me, although I've used several of those options during my lifetime to date!

[paddywak]

Spectacularly S.E. but I was born and bred in Notts and I've lived there most of my life.

[Peaspeculiars]

hmm.. 'Spectacularly South East'

I'm live in Nottingham but was born in Liverpool! :o}

[boxtops]

..even weirder for nibble - he may live here with me in the SE, but his origins are North of the Border!

[cupid04]

Spectacularly south-east.

[Mamyalynne]

"Very Northern"

[Eve]

I was torn with some of them though, there are things I would say now that I'd have never have said before I came to Manchester, like a barm or ginnel, I'd say them now but that's not what I'd have said growing up and before I got here!

[Frank97]

As quite a few are coming up SE, me as well, when they aren't, it just indicates how much our local dialects are dying, which is a shame.

[Peaspeculiars]

Same here, torn on a few,but if you asked for a 'Balm cake' instead of a 'Cob' round here you'd get looked at funny lol! So I guess vocab does change as you go along and move about

[Maydup]

Me too, very spectacularly South East; although now living in East Anglia and unable to impersonate the locals without causing offence!

[baza]

spectacularly south east.
