Realy, I love accents. All of them. I wish I could give the new boy-Siri on my iPhone a bit of a cockney twist.

What on earth...?
As a Canadian I have no idea how you could hear hah-oose from us saying "house". If anything I always thought we tended towards shorter syllables than our southern neighbours. I shall have to listen to those programs more carefully to see if I can pick up what you mean.
Can you not change Siri's accent!? That seems criminal. I don't have an iPhone, but I did get hours of enjoyment cycling through all the available accents on my satellite navigation system in my car. Time to write a carefully worded letter to Apple, methinks.
