I spent my teens living in Aberdeen and it's definitely different from South. My sister lives in Livingston now (recently moved there from Glasgow) so whenever I visit I have to tune my ear into the accent! Joanne |

Like it Gwen! Not allowed toffees, but cheated today and had 3 Reisens - dark chocolate toffees, lovely. None of them eejits on here girls - hopefully it'll be a nice weekend. I don't usually log on on a Friday night. Eejits in every country - no way has anyone got the monopoly on them!! Off to look for Woods |

There's a few in the area but they're not natives! My father in law was Fraserburgh and never lost his accent completely, he toned it down a bit as my mother in law was born in Inverness and lived there till she was 13. First time I heard the accent was on my wedding day and I was mesmerised. People kept speaking to me and I hadn't a clue what they were on about! |
