American...? I thought you lived in Australia. Wouldn't that make it an Australian accent? That's what I thought I detected, anyway, though I admit my experience with the accent is limited to the blonde lad (whose name I've forgotten) from House MD and that awful Wolf Creek. I won't mention Crocodile Dundee, as I'm told that that is a sure way to start a fight when one finds himself in the company of...Aussies? Ozzies? Those who live in Australia.
And when I said "lovely" I meant "lovely." I think the Australian accent falls into my top three, along with Scottish and Irish brogues. I'm unlucky enough to be surrounded by one of the most horrifying accents on the planet on a daily basis, so it doesn't take all that much to make me swoon.
