Re: First Post Introduction
I was looking for a Geordie accent to show how extreme accents can get here in this little island. I can't bloody understand them half the time, and I found this. It started very cleverly but started to wear about half way through. Some of his imitations are very good, some are a bit naff to my ear...

I live in Washington state, Olympia... the state capitol, and a 1600sqf house runs between $200,000 and $300,000 ...
