Yes, perhaps slightly less obviously may be better... Subtle as a brick is never good ;) But still, I'm just jealous of anyone that has an accent - Growing up in the Midlands left me with no accent at all :( Even to the point when going on a school exchange my host family were rather bemused as to why I didn't sound English... And I now live in Scotland and get the piss taken on a regular basis... It's never easy!
