I think you sounded quite posh when I spoke to you, but I've been surrounded by Northern oafs almost all my life
Southerners tell me I have a Lancashire twang, which is pretty upsetting. I think I've picked up northern phrases rather than the accent, I say "aye" a lot and "well" instead of "very".

Oh I say well.

I should have a northern accent really since I left the south when I was 5 so hadn't really learned to speak properly
but my mum and dad both speak the Queen's English, i.e. properly.

Same, I was brought up to speak Queen's English
But I do alternate between 'bath' and 'barth'.

I say a kind of fusion
it's not "baff" and not "barrrrph" It's just "bath"
