As I'm not at all sure where this leaves me... erm... I think I just answered my own question and have, rather conveniently, already vacated the country.
I am resisting the urge to say very rude things about the Forest of Dean... (Apologies to any people from the Forest of Dean listening. I'm sure you're all lovely, if somewhat genetically limited. Unless you are the exception that proves the rule. Look, all I'm saying is that I was not at all surprised when I discovered that Hagrid is meant to have a Forest accent..)
She's right... at least in terms of the sort of treatment I'm used to in these parts. *sob* <---- Are you buying it yet?
I feel honour bound to inform you that people in Gloucestershire make Deanie jokes the way Germans make Bavarian jokes... and so on around the world I'm sure. So... don't feel too bad. *g*
I'm a Londoner by birth (the Gloucestershire side is from my Mother)and part Irish *cough* so I can't win for losing...
