I'm with Seraphita about Brummie though, when the government announced a high speed train linking the Birmingham to the rest of the UK I thought the money would be better spent on a huge wall to keep them seperate, lest the contagion spreads. Scouse is my next least favourite, for some reason I think of drug dealers and violence every time I hear it but it's one of the friendliest places to visit in the UK! I blame TV for my stereotypes. According to Bill Bryson in his excellent book Mother Tongue there are 43 distinct British regional accents and before people started moving about with the invention of the railway they could be easily subdivided further.
