Are you good at accents?

I can do passable French and Spanish accents as I'm currently studying both languages. But I really can't do regional British accents, I either get them all mixed up or I just sound like a complete idiot.

I can't do any accents apart from a sarf Lundarn chav. I'm pretty good at that. Probably because I lived near Brixton till I was 9 and now live in Croydon. I don't normally talk like a chav but I find it easy to slip into when I want to.

I'm really good at doing a German accent in Danish and a Danish accent in German. Furthermore I can do a Danish and a German accent in English.

And I can switch between American and British. Aaand I think I can do a rather good French accent in English as well.

and Generalish American accents are no problem for me.

Strangely enough though, despite living in both Glasgow and Spain for a number of years and speaking Spanish I really can't master a Rab C Nesbit or Spanglish accent.

I can do South African, Newcastle, Welsh, Scottish and Birmingham.

How I ever came to know that I was good at those accents is unknown to me.

Oh yeah, Birmingham. I do a mean impression of that, too. Well, the accent.

I think I can do a good American accent although it's difficult to tell. People always do Scottish accents and seem to think they are good but a lot of them sound terrible. Maybe my American accent is just as bad...

Haha, t'will be me, then :P
