    Which part of Australia?

    Not the western suburbs of Sydney, that's for sure.

    Or that horrible Melbourne accent in Kath and Kim either.

    lol

    Great accent.

    For me though, it has to be Seth Efreca or Way-els.

    You never put in regular Dublin accent, it's neither knacker or yuppie, just plain Dub - I like that one :D


  • Posts: 4,040 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    northside accent isnt nacker! only most of the people who live there are. take it back!:mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,181 ✭✭✭✭Jim


    For attractiveness I'm not really a fan of any of them tbh. Maybe Galway.

    Otherwise Belfast.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,739 ✭✭✭jameshayes


    I like northern accents the best! those long vowels!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,790 ✭✭✭cornbb


    The Limerick accent is hugely entertaining. Not all Limerick accent-havers are skobes either. Then Letrim/Cavan.

    Edit: LOL, I can't believe Limerick is in the lead at this stage :D

    Oh f*ck no. I'm talkin sexy little surfer girl accent. That and some billabong/quiksilver etc clothes is the bizz.

    Scottish accent still makes me melt or a really soft Donegal accent is pretty yum too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 972 ✭✭✭moco


    Fermanagh is the best.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 890 ✭✭✭l3LoWnA


    Worldwide - my favourtie accents are South African & Carribean & a Scottish Accent (Billy Connolly ftw)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 972 ✭✭✭moco


    I'll say it again, Fermanagh.

    What's a Tipperary accent?

    Never heard one before that's all!

    My accent changes depending who I'm talking to, it's not intentional, and when I'm drunk it gets worse :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 56 ✭✭mucker23


    what!!! Navan isnt included in this list!!!! :mad::mad:

    Exactly! What is it? I am always told though. I am from Limerick but the town is almost in Kerry.

    The Limerick City accents are great

    Waterford accents are great; well boy! antin hectic you going downtown at all? No boy.
