My family are from Liverpool, so I have some twang there - I have a Midlands accent, and I was raised about an hour north of London, so my voice is a mess. Although, to American ears, it sounds like the crisp language of a queen's butler.

Believe it or not the war on Iraq is based on a sound scientific principle, The bee hive principle.
