Cockney, and PROUD of it :thumbup:
Alright Lav! Haw's it gawn?
You have a cockney accent! The dialect is famed for its occasional use of rhyming slang e.h. apples and pears = stairs.
The Cockney accent has long been looked down upon and thought of as inferior by many, however they also have a reputation for being very friendly, funny, open and honest. You are not alone, there are many famous people who originally came from South East England, such as, Phil Collins, David Beckham, Charlie Chaplin, and Sir Alan Sugar, to name but a few!
dont forget ME !!!

Loc: Northumberland, UK.
They got it wrong, i speak Northumbrian, and like most they thought i was a Geordie, because i come from the northeast of England,and most people from here in the northeast do speak Geordie, but there are two towns that a lot of the older people still speak the old Northumbrian, and they are Morpeth, and Alnwick.
My comment to the site was as below.
You are wrong, i have a Nothumbrian accent, you do not give enough options to choose from, and i speak Northumbrian not Geordie. You lot think England ends at Newcastle.
