I did find Mary’s accent different from what I normally associate with a British accent. It seemed much more formal than that typical Estuary English you hear on shows like Doctor Who. Then I learned that there is a bit of different accent for Southern England than middle or Northern England and that it tends to sound a bit more “refined” with extra long vowel sounds. Makes sense when she says she wishes her bank balance matched her accent!

Film and video media from the 1930s to the 1970s gave me, an American, an impression of what the English, or what many would say on my side of the pond, the 'British' people, style of speaking. Wow! Was I in for a surprise when arriving in London in 1972, staying at a bed-and-breakfast place at the East End; as the enunciation I heard among the locals were almost incomprehensible with my untrained ears. However, the bus system in London was a marvel . . . and this is coming from a Californian that exclusively used private automobile transportation prior to my London stay.

Man, questions about accents and height, interesting. RE: accent, I don't doubt a single word you're saying but I have noticed that when performing (not talking music here, but rather presentation like in videos, public speaking etc.), we all tend to neutralise ourselves a little bit so if you were to compare two audio clips one where you are in a video and one where you're talking to your friends and/or family, you would notice some slight even minute differences. However, this is completely natural. 5 year plan: well, hopefully get my mojo back and finish my MA-thesis (language related) and then move to the UK (although C-XIX + spanner on that).

In the UK we call it a “telephone voice”. The voice you use when you answer the phone to an unknown caller. More commonly when we’re not as well-spoken as Mary, who has a telephone voice all day (see, Mary, I managed to avoid saying posh-sounding - I’m sure the bank balance will catch up one day). I have a really neutral northern accent after thirty years away from home, but if I’m talking with anyone from north of Yorkshire, it all jumps straight back, just like you say. Only not a little bit. A very, very large bit...

Ah, yes. The 5-year plan. Well, I started out as a technical writer, combining my love of numbers & letters, planning to reassess in 5 years, when I had saved up enough money to buy a house. So I got a job transfer & moved across the U.S. and into my new house. Did I fully reassess what my career goals were/should be? Not really; I had a mortgage and other bills to worry about! Next thing I know, it’s been 20 years (counting those first 5) and I officially retire from that original professional job, and then work at various technical publications positions for yet another decade. So, that’s how a 5-year plan becomes ones whole life and career. My current 5-year plan: retire (again) and collect my Social Security and two pensions, amusing myself with my hobbies and charitable work.

@@garethreece I’m from the midlands originally, lived in the west and East Midlands, lived with some northerners (well sort of... Mansfield) at uni and now have been in South Wales for 10 years. My accent is all over the shop. The Welsh think I’m from “tup north” and the midlanders say I’ve got a Welsh twang.

Make sure you have some good security if you have guitars and equipment left in the premises when you are not actually living there !

Especially in the UK. My mantra was "lock it or lose it" and that's hard to shake no matter how many times my wife says "you live in Canada now". 😀

Please don't steal my shorts, I just did the required 10-year replacement. Very happy so far.

Thanks Mary, at my 46 years old, I found in you a great inspiration to improve myself playing the guitar and singing, that's difficult cause I'm the eternal begginer, but nothing impossible. Keep inspiring us.

Interesting fact, my regional accent (Inland Northern) is 1,700 miles across but only a few hundred miles high. I can travel for a day and a half east (to Providence, Rhode Island) or west (to South Dakota or to St. Louis, MO) and encounter people who speak just like my next door neighbor. But driving from Metro Detroit to south of Bowling Green, Ohio (an hour's drive), and people speak completely differently. It's sometimes barely intelligible, too, unless you're used to it. Inland Northern is spoken in a region larger than all of England (which is only 50,000 square miles).
