From, and currently in, Redcar in Teesside. 20 years here and then 20 years in Leeds mean I don't really fit in either but to most I'm just from 'Yorkshire'.

Aberdeen, Scotland :thumbsup:

Never thought I had an accent but these WA folks take the piss on a daily basis and tell me I'm not pronouncing my name correctly......

Apparently I should be saying "Jen" and not "Jan"
