welsh accents on girls

[Abitrary]

I usually end up in the Italian Ice cream shop when I get down that way

A beach resort, where all the girls look and talk like stacey, from gavin and stacey, called mumbles. Holiday sorted.

Talking of accents, I was in a club in Liverpool many years ago and spotted this lovely Anglo Chinese girl - red and gold choengsam, doe eyes - I eventually plucked up the courage to go and talk to her but as soon as she opened her mouth.... I think she was Cilla Black's vocal coach!

I used to have a girlfriend, Carisse, who looked and sounded like her - she was a nurse. We met at the Pontadawe festival I think... happy days.

Gavin & Stacey is South Walian Welsh. I find it more "sing songy" than up here. I don't think I have much of an accent (went to an English speaking secondary school so most of my school friends were English), but my non-Welsh friends say that I have a Welsh twang. I lived in Swansea for 3 years and noticed the accents there. Much stronger accent.
BTW - In North Wales we always have the Welsh first followed by the English on the sign posts. It was one of the first things I noticed in Swansea - it's English first followed by Welsh.
Mumbles and the Gower are really nice. Frequently did the "Mumbles Mile" and ended up in Cinderella's. Is that club still there?

My mum just did that mumbles mile i think some sort of pub crawl i believe?
Mad old bat she is.

My wife has learned to to interrupt when Lisa is speaking to me.

Are you saying she Speaks too

Nope, does nothing for me.

Nor me. But what about "Gwen" in Torchwood?

 

[alecstilleyedye]

i like a welsh accent (must be the welsh blood in my veins), but i'm also partial to lowland scots (hence married to a scots lass).

The misses is Welsh, from Gorseinon in Swansea. She fortunately sounds nothing like Stacey

On the weather girl front, I used to turn the sound down for Lara Lewington... but it was nothing to do with her accent.

Na dont dig sorry
Now Irish on the other hand.

My mum comes from Garden Village so I know the area well. I went through Gorseinon on saturday on my way into the Gower, and dropped into the motorcycle shop M&P on the Garngoch Rd (as well as Busters Accessories near the DVLA centre). Damn handy if you do the m/cycle thing - Does your missus say 'Look Ewe, thats lovely' cos my mum says it all the time
