I've watched all the videos, you guys are amaziiiiiiiiiinggggggg!!!!!! All of you!!!
English teachers in Argentina should use these vids to show the different accents there are!
As English is not my native tongue, I'll tell you who was the easiest for me to understand: Moray, by far. Who would have thought! I must be watching too many Travis interviews :oP
Then the She Devils, and Darran.
Kristy was the hardest for me, because you talk so fast! Hahaha.
My favourites:
"Out and about" by Kristy, Wendy and Darran.
"melk".
The "r" sound and... I don't know what it is, I think it's the "o" sound in scottish... whatever it is it's so cute!
"maZn" in michigander (?).
And of course, "how now brown cow" in northen irish. I wouldn't have guessed that was what Wendy and Darran were saying if I hadn't known it beforehand.
Ahhh! I'm loving it!! More videos, please!!!
Megg, you should totally do one! I want to know what your voice sounds like! |

I was the hardest to understand? oh man.
To me, that was talking at normal speed. Maybe i should put subtitles as suggested by Ric!
Haha, voting on the nicest accent is an interesting idea, but wouldnt you feel bad for the person who got the least votes? |

That seemed normal speed to me too, but people do often tell me to slow down when i'm talking...
Most people would probably vote for Moray since we're all Travis fans! |

It's not necessary. I watched it twice and understood everything. If I can do that, everyone can :oP |

I am not. Do you know your geography? The only coast I am on is the coast of Lake Ontario. |

ha! Sparky! I like it.
Yes, this wonder called Lake Ontario! A magical thing, really. Often refered to as "Great". Together with Lake Erie forms the wonderful and enchanting Niagara Falls.
Kristy's lesson on the Great Lakes is now over. |

awww, I love hearing everyone's accents!
Kristy, I didn't think you were talking too fast at all...you sound very similar to me with a few exceptions. In fact you sound more similar to me than Kayte or Nikki I think.
Wendy, Darran and Moray...I adore your accents!!!! I could listen to you all day. :) |
