Nah, you Candys speak Canadian, who EVER heard of a Brit saying "ay" at the end of every sentence?

I speak American.

There was a TV special years ago called daylight robberies which depicted squirrels and even some birds who had learned steal food like this seagull. They showed a squirrel that had learned how steal from a vending machine. They even set up a couple of obstacle courses for the squirrels to beat which they eventually did.

I'd be more afraid of a bear than a bird.

Well, considering Scotland, England and Wales are all part of Britain, you can't really say that there is a British accent. There's no way a Welsh person speaks like and English person. Therefore, I'm not really sure what accent people are referring to when they talk about a 'British accent'. It could be anything. I have an idea people are generally referring to a Colin Firth/Hugh Grant type accent but I can't be sure.

And then it varies by region, too.

It's the same anywhere else. There's really no specifically "American" accent, either.

When Americans refer to a British accent it usually refers to the English accent generally heard in the movies - the upper class version on PBS. We use the term british and english interchangably, and refer to the other members of Britain sperately.
