Accents

I was reminded today about people and listening to my accent. Some days I'm asked if I'm from Boston, other times from England, New Zealand or even South Africa. All wrong. My favorite though is when a work colleage (I believe it was farm building) introduced me to his parents. After chatting for a few minutes they left. Later I heard that the following conversation between son and parents:

"Does he have an a speech impediment?"

"No, he's Australian"
