    Soft Donegal on a girl sex for the ears.

    Worst is the Drogheda / louth accent...Dwaaaaaaheda! I'm actually embarassed that these "people" are allowed travel as foreigners may think all Irish talk like that. Also the high pitched Cark Biiiiiyy accent is torture.

    I find the welsh accent hilarious.

    I find auld Dublin accents charming, not the screechy knacker ""cimmeeeeaaww Jehsinteh yisser dinnaws reddy". But the brennans bread type of old Dublin accent.

    There's many accents I like but the one I dislike the most is Nadine Coyle's. I just can't figure out where it's from :)

    Take an accent from any city, there's great sounding variations and pure awful ones.

    For me the more foreign sounding they are the better

    That would be my take on it to .Travelling around towns and citys

    Ireland ( Dublin , Cork , and more rural areas like Kerry, Donegal )

    UK ( Manchester ,Liverpool , Sheffield , London ,)

    you get a nice variety of accents ,some pleasent on the ear ,some stomach churning and it's pretty much same everywere you go .

    There's a few but not enough mentions of northy accents on women. Nothing sounds nicer.
    As for horrible accents, the yanks have that all sown up.

    Man from Dundalk likes Dundalk accent. Wow.

    I like a mild southern drawl on a female. Someone from Nashville, Tennessee or something.

    D4 is definitely the worst, especially when you hear a grown man speaking in it. Anyone ever hear Jerry Thornley on off the ball?
