Having said that, I've been talking a lot to a bloke from Lichfield and a little bit of his Staffordshire accent has been rubbing off on me. I have to consciously purge this variant from the way I speak but I can hear it occasionally listening back to voice notes I send to fellow English Accent 101 speakers, like my sister, when I am a wee bit squiffy.
