HAVE YOUR SAY: Accents

Wednesday, August 27, 2008, 09:45

BRITAIN has some of the widest variety of accents in the world.

From Glaswegian to Geordie, or from Mancunian to Cockney, each area has its own unique sound.

Here in the west country, our distinctive burr - famously displayed by the Shed at Gloucester Rugby in their 'Glawwwsterr' chant - is known all over the world.

What do you think of the west country accent? Are you fed up of being dismissed as farmers by the rest of the country?

Or are you proud of the distinctive tone of the local voices?

What accents do you like the most - and which can't you stand?

The Shed is the greatest viewing point in sport. To do anything to damage would be an outrage.
