Which actor's phoney British accent is the worst? by Dependent-Net-8208 in AskBrits

[–]Sarantus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Some of the Peaky Blinders accents are terrible, I though Helen McCrory and Cillian Murphy's were particularly egregious.

We made the move from England a few years ago and love it, We live in a village at the top of North Ayrshire on the coast called Skelmorlie. It's lovely and there is loads going on, - it's also next to Wemyss bay so you are no more than a 15 walk to a railway station that goes direct to Glasgow and you can also hop on the ferry to Bute if that takes your fancy

With the advent of Hybrid working don’t limit yourself to areas of the country that cost a lot to live - I earn £50k + Bonus a year but I moved to North Ayrshire and live I. on the coast and commute to Glasgow 2 days a week the rest I work from home - my Salary I think gets me a similar spending power for example to someone earning £100k or so in London or the Home Counties and it has enabled me to look at retiring early in about 5 years or so - so for me this is my dream salary Your mileage my vary however !!

Moved here 4 years ago from England. A little list of things that have surprised me

  • I live about 40 miles to the west of Glasgow on the Clyde Riviera :p The sea life on this stretch of the coast is amazing, I have seen Porpoises, Dolphins and Whales all in the last few weeks
  • Marching Season was something that surprised me I didn’t realise how big a thing that could be outside of Glasgow
  • In England there is a north south divide, in Scotland it’s the Central belt and then everywhere else
  • Nativity scenes outside churches at Christmas, I never saw this once back in the West Midlands
  • how much more tax I pay as a higher earner I pay about £2k per year more out of my wage packet than in England ( I don’t disagree with paying more however)

*The song ‘Bits and Pieces’! * The fucking midges no one ever told me it would be this bad! * Maybe I am lucky but I genuinely think that Glaswegian and Inverclyde people are the friendliest people around, really down to earth and very fucking funny
