Thanks for that. I just can't make out  the locations mentioned.

When the actress Maggie Smith was preparing for the filming of "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie" she needed to perfect her posh Edinburgh accent. She phoned her aunt who lived in Morningside, a middle class area of the city, and asked her if she could help in getting the accent right. The aunt was most put out "Eccent! - ey don't heve en eccent!"

Accent? What accent? ;)

That could be my neighbor talking. North Central US..

Sounds like an emergency medical dispatch, probably from a US military base. I'll give it another listen after more coffee and try to transcribe it.

I dated a Lady from Scotland years back. SHE had an accent ;)

This was recorded on by a listener in the south of England on 33.820 MHz. Can any US listener make sense of what is being said, or can you narrow down the location of the accent?
