	lol Mersey. Accents are funny things. When we first arrived in WA in 1982 I got a job in the Northern Goldfields about 900 kms from Perth. My son was six and my daughter was two. When the talked with us they had a Northern accent, but when they played with the Aussie kids they spoke with an Australian accent. They seem to have evened their accents out over the years

	Yep, even after almost 30 years in Australia :-) I used to know Bury and Heywood quite well. I once worked for the then Middleton Council. My OH was born in Oldham and then lived in Middleton, which is where we met

	It is indeed, Mersey, I came out to Australia with OH and our two children in 1982. I actually left Manchester in 1975 when I got a job in Grimsby. Manchester would have changed enormously since then!
