A friend I have in darwen who said I said Down and Town different to him... I don't know how to type the difference in sound though... just that he said the OW sound 'properly' lol. I notice the difference and it is definitely different in Accy to Darwen. Burnley accent is easy to spot I agree.

Apparently I have lost my prominent Accy accent, perhaps that is due to going to uni (?)
