I've lived away longer than she has and my accent is still spot on
She came across very well.
Eh? She's supposed to be a writer, so presumably she has a good command of the English language.
Intelligent and humorous.

Only by your measure .
I am now totally sick and tired of people praising the virtues of this woman on the simple basis that she came from Accy. I do not know how many of you are daily readers of the Times, but until very recently, Ms. Winterston had a fortnightly saturday column in the paper; as such, she took every opportunity to rubbish the town. Now, I don't know if her essay's are available on line, or if they are only available in hard copy; but irrespective I would suggest that those of you who view her has a great daughter of the town try and take a long hard look at what she has written and I have no doubt you will then revise your opinion.
