I used to deal with an Iraqi engineer in Bahrain who went to university in Liverpool. Good fun to speak to, once you got used to him.
Technical e-mails with no punctuation were impossible to decipher, it was quicker to decode the faults. Which is saying something, considering they were in backwards hexadecimal and needed 17 volumes of tech manuals to decode.

i really love to hear british men talk (very sexy accent) but loathe most any kind of yankee accent (yankee as in northeast us).
Every time I've been to the USA some gimp in airport security asks me if I'm Australian. We don't all sound like Hugh bloody Grant. Australian! How to **** off a Northener in one easy sentence.
Note: No offence to Australians, its just that I'm not.

Weird, that's happened to me, too. Never thhought that a lancashire accent could be mistaken for an aussie one before
Here is the process of thought.
1. Doesn't sound like English person from films.
2. Who else speaks English?
3. Oh yeh Australia.
4. Hes Australian.
