    Default Re: Moving to USA - Advice Needed

    I had good and bad experiences in the US with my English accent. A lot of people told me they loved my accent and in Santa Monica they wouldn't leave me alone. But in Texarcana, Arkansas they looked at me like I came from another planet! lol

    The BRITISH accent has gotten me wet and deep in the USA.

    LMAO...They don't like your kind in Boston Steven...and I'll tell ya....been a lot of places, and just about as many scrapes, but those Boston Bowery boys don't fuck around!

    They don't use baseball bats the way the Red Sox do ! And I've made more Irish drinking buddies in London than Englishmen. I guess they think my accent is Boston.

    I have a question, why don't the posts from English people on this forum have accents. I read the posts and it looks like American words.


    I'm the girl nobody knows until she commits suicide.
    Then suddenly everyone knew me.

    They loved me in Boston - every bar I went they bought me pints. There aren't many Brits in London. You were lucky to find an Irish or two.
