    Great to see how those comments resonated with you, Yvette. After 3 years being here in the UK, it comes across that you're now confident in your assessement of living here, and that you're happy and feel at home here. Good luck with your 'Life in the UK' Test.

    Hi Yvette Great vid btw Alway's nice to hear positive things said about your country, I think a lot of British people forget/take for granted that we live on a beautiful island, lots of history/buildings, generally safe & every part of the UK has it's own story, places to visit etc You're a great ambassador for Aussies (Perhaps when Sir Les Patterson retires you can become Australia's Cultural Attache to the UK?!) I hadn't heard of Bindis before apart from Steve Irwin's daughter is there some sort of weedkiller to get rid of them? They sound a right 'Mare! All the best Jim, Surrey X

    The accents are so different because the places have been there for so long. Yes Manchester and Liverpool are close now with cars and trains but for centuries they were a day's walk apart. Liverpool was in many ways closer to Ireland than Manchester. So people lived in isolation and developed and maintained their own accents. Some of which can be traced back to celtic, anglo-saxon and Norse

    I have relatives in Australia who came over to the UK several years ago for a reunion, and brought a jar of Vegemite with them, so I got to try it. My other half loves Marmite and while I do like it I prefer Vegemite, so we have a jar of each in the cupboard.

    Nice video with a few errors here goes there's no Night in the UK in Summer time it goes from dusk to dawn without night as the sun is always below the horizon, and not that long ago everyone had two distinct dialects even Shakespeare which was the Royal English and Country English one being what Royalty spoke at the time and the other what Cornish farmers speak like now or generally what farmer talk anywhere lol and which do you think Shakespeare spoke lol yes farmers English, so everyone doing his plays should speak it like it's meant to spoke lol oh I forgot about Sottish and Welsh but then they ain't English lol
    Oh and every few hundred years there's been floods and fires in Australia! It's a natural occurrence not like the Euro floods a few years ago which weren't natural but man made due the EU outlawing dredging of the Rivers,

    Did you get called a Pom when back home because your accent had become 'British' ever so slightly. Only one wild animal that may attack and possibly injure enough to kill and that is only found in one part of the country, Wild Boar. Only when/if feels threatened and with suckling boarlets around. (bloody typos)

    i'm yankee but lived in manchester with an english gf fer 2 1/2 years. obviously yer nation of origin is different but we've both experienced being ex-pats in the u.k. both nations have their good points and bad points but i would definitely say i'm L.A. born and raised and i'd rather deal with british cops ANY day of the week than the macho hothead douchebags we have far too many of over here.
    that said i think an american female will fit in better over there than an american male will simply because the u.k. is saturated with americana and as such in their media american dudes are constantly portrayed as "alpha males" (even their superheroes have american accents) and so to alot of yobs and chavs yer accent alone is a macho challenge which gets to be really annoying very quick.

    The village I come from has a different accent from all the other local villages and I'm convinced it traces back to 1901 when the local coffin factory was bought by a London furniture firm. Having bought it they realised that they had the woodworkers but you can't make good furniture without French Polishers. So they brought 8 families of French Polishers up from London. The village at the time had just over 100 inhabitants and overnight it went to 130. The intermixing seems to have caused a language shift.
    It still is a small village - my grandfather was imported when he was 2 and when he died at 66 one of his native contemporaries asked my Dad if it was true he had died and on hearing the news said "that's sad son, he was an awfy nice man for an incomer".
