Retro to surely blame 'one of those moods!  ' or the fact that 'not everyone is perfect!  ', before gracefully declaring that he has no idea who is he talking to.

| Aha yes, it's all a big conspiracy and has nothing at all to do with you being a blithering old halfwit.

Actually I will just leave you with the hyprocrisy of accusing someone of being oh so sensitive when you've already submitted a carefully worded defence of points about something which you think may have possibly slightly been about you.
You're a joke.

I have an Australia accent, but definitely not a Paul Hogan-style "G'day mate" type.
When I was younger, some teachers thought I was part American because my Filipino mother's accent when speaking English was very American influenced, although not so much anymore.
A few people have asked me if I have English history, because occasionally my accent and terminology slips slightly into an English one, which comes mainly from watching copious amounts of your television, film, listening to your music and listening to your radio.
For example, I now say 'summat' instead of something in a very Ricky Gervais Reading lazy style, which I never do consciously and is quite troubling.
I'm also quite good at imitating accents. A couple of guys at my cricket club have come from Essex, and they tell me I do the best imitation of them they've heard while in Australia. South African and New Zealand are my two specialty accents, because most people go for the strong stereotypical impersonation, but the key is to wind it back a bit.
I also do children's parties.
