    Vosne's was treated with the utmost contempt in Cambridgeshire. We have taste though.

    I used to live in Cambridge. My accent didn't hurt me while I was there ;)



    I can now flip between my normal accent and a very passable Cambridge accent. The boyfriend loves it :blush:

    Don't worry, my dulcet Cambridge tones provide the class and sophistication in our relationship. Vosne is my Eliza Doolittle

    I can't remember the name of it, but I don't live in Bristol. Far too common.

    Is this a good time to mention one of my closest friends is from Bristol?

    I see lots of negative comments about my home town on here. Taking them in good humour is the best way I find.

    You'll never change me! NEVERRRRR! :D It makes me want to weep when I see folk pouring tomato sauce all over their chippy. If it's oven chips at home, then I'll have salt and vinegar, but also have a massive blob of tomato sauce on the side. Mmm... It doesn't belong anywhere near my haggis supper though! :p

    I'll take a case, it's bloody salt and vinegar down here in Yorkshire :(

    But they do know what a fish supper is at least, and Morrisons in Wakefield bake their own Scotch Pies too.

    It's my birthday and I was born in the next village in Ayrshire.

    It was the only birthday my dad remembered when I was growing up :)
