In my own accent, I would say, "Hello, how are you today?  You're looking good." but round here (Shropshire) it's. "Awright?

I speak BBC English, proper English or RP.  I can speak Norf Lunnon, but it's not a recognisable version because I learnt it at school and unlearnt it at home.  Which is odd because Mum was from Prudhoe and Dad from the East End but neither had a trace of their home accents.
