Neither do we...that's the New Zealanders. I remember once, I had a NZer sitting next to me on a plane. At that stage of my life, I was unfamiliar with the differences in the NZ accents. Said fellow passenger asked for something that sounded like /pin/. My geniune response was "sorry, I don't normally carry them around with me." We cleared up that particular misunderstanding fairly quickly.
Is it fellow Brits who have been confused as to the origins of your accent?
Psssst, where do they speak Geordie?
