Ah well least I can pick the French Canadians from the American's now lol.:) :D :cool:
Here's Robin's wonderful voice in an MP3 file or in a .wav file.

Awww i love all of these American accents :D. Great to hear everyone. I am going to do what Devon did and just make mine a video ;).
Paul you will have to re-post that , nothing doing here, thanks.
For those who have trouble distinguishing between the two Down Under accents, here is how you can tell us apart, well it is the best I could do lol.:) :D
I believe only people from Nova Scotia and Newfoundland pronounce it "aboot." It's not even really "oot" it sort of just sounds like that. It's the same way the Scottish pronounce it. Like "Abou-oot." As for me, I'm in BC, so I just pronounce it "about." Lol.Quote:

(it would be better than nothing! :p)
Slick you do so have an accent, I never noticed you were from Canada, and I am proud to say I picked that you were, it was the way you said Know.
I have seen your ugly mug to quote you, and it is not Ugly at all, lovely to hear you.:)
For some reason my voice recordings just won't attach. Does someone here have msn, and maybe I can send the recording to them over msn and they can post it for me? None of my friends are on to do it for me. I also still can't hear any of the attachments here. :(
