Had a Yank ask if I was from South Africa one.

We’ve always been asked if we’re Australian when we’re over in USA.

It’s got mixes of Birmingham and Lesta, depends on the words. Generally I think it sounds more like they do in Lesta

It depends on two things, your location and your upbringing.

If you live East of Coventry, or North-East, so Rugby, Nuneaton, Beduth, Lutterworth your accent will be east midland in sound. If you are from Tamworth, Solihull you sound like a Brummie, one because there is a large overflow of Brummies there so you would easily pick up the accent. When we had a car industry many coventry based workers spoke with broad Brummie accents because of working with Brummies.
However, if you received RP at school you would barely have an accent. I had RP and few people know where I am from. Likewise, more and more primary schools focus on RP so accents are less noticeable in children, this maybe sad but even if I met the most beautiful girl in the world with a black country accent I would bypass her, as I would with scousers.
