It's the Aussie accent on the phone. CORRR.



Evening DTP! Graz is a bloke and he makes the odd appearance on here. (Odd being the operative word!!)

How are you today??
DTP !!! Like it!!! Yeah I know Graz is around with Tiggs somewhere! I'm fine thanks - hope you are too?
Oh you would love my Australian accent then???

Have you got an Aussie accent then - thought you only spent a couple of years out there. Although, I must say, I 'get' an accent as soon as I speak to someone with it. Currently I'm battling with a Brummie/Manc/Welsh hybrid

Graz is currently out driving round in our (hopefully soon to be ex) car with our the nice people who are (hopefully) going to buy it
They have just driven about 2 hours to get here to look at it so they must be pretty serious

I did training once in Newcastle in a Brewer's Fayre and spent the whole time mortified as I couldn't understand them

They could understand every word that I said - there was one Liverpudlian who had to translate every sentence for me.... You know when you want the ground to just open up and swallow you
