From the last post I think the current tally is that 9 people thought I had an obviously Scottish accent, two didn't think I sounded Scottish and two couldn't really remember what my accent sounded like.
Speaking of Scotland I'll be up there from next Friday for a week or so (from the 5th to the 15th September). I'm deliberately not planning to do much because so far this year I haven't really had a long break where I've just had a rest for a few days and I'm starting to feel like not doing anything for a few days might be a nice change. Particularly since on my return from holiday I've probably got about three days of near-constant meetings as we try to plan the next year of work, so I think I'll need to be well-rested before that or I'll probably just fall asleep in them.
Of course, I'm probably not going to spend the entire holiday doing nothing so if anyone can think of anything interesting going on in Scotland that week then I'm happy to listen to suggestions.
