Today, I had an American friend try a cup of my favorite Earl Grey. She spit it out, swearing. It was shockingly similar to the time she had me try a cappucino, MLIB

Today, whilst reading MLIA, I found out that Americans don’t use the word ‘trolley’. I have no idea what word they use instead, MLIB

Today, I was watching ‘Letters to Juliet’ with my class, for the last day of term. We had to concentrate really hard to understand one of the people’s accents. It was the posh English man. We’re from Yorkshire, MLIB

Today, I realised whenever I read a story on here, I read it with a typical British accent, although I am from Newcastle. This annoys me. I’m reading my own story in a typical British accent as a write this. It just wont stop. MLIB

Today, I realised that whenever I hear English accents in American programmes, I get confused for a minute, because of the over exaggeration of our accents. Not everyone talks like the queen. I should know, MLIB
