Kiwis generally pronounce their e's as i's.
If they say "Ten pens for my hens" they're Aussie.
If it's "Tin pins for my hins" they're Kiwi.

Not a usual comment but the vowel exchange is easy to listen out for.

I have problems telling Canadians from Americans.
Because I have little to go on. So few Canadian TV programmes/ films available in this country.

Clod - watch Gavin and Stacey. You'll hear a Welsh accent much better then. It's a consistent feature of the show.
Oh! What's occurring?
