Had a somewhat proud moment recently in which I was listening to an Englishman speak, and managed to roughly guess the area he was from just by accent alone. It was very broad and was mostly just me going: "[squint] West. But like east of Devon." And it turned out to be West Country.

Will I use this knowledge? Non-zero chance, actually; I once deeply disappointed a guy on a plane by guessing he was from the north when he was from Essex. Never know when that might happen again, and I need to be ready.

#i still send out mental apologies to everyone else on that flight #we were so annoying #i did not understand what a stag do was #but hey. all my research has paid off #barely lol.#the things we do for fic.#this brought to you by me poking around at the Geordie accent #because Geordie Remus was a suddenly hilarious thought #but i think i settled on Yorkshire for this iteration.#very exciting i know.
