Despite moving away years ago I've still got it. What do you all think of the great brummie accent?

The first girl I ever really fancied had a brummie accent so I am hopelessly biased.

my best mates mum is very brummie, and he is to a certain degree, which i find very hilarious, but what annoys me the most is that he ignores his own accentual hilarities and takes the piss out of my norfolk accent unmercifully.
