| I thought I sounded pretty neutral there. I'm definitely capable of being more Northern. |

You did sound neutral, until you said 'but' :p |

So your accent makes black cock/black hawk sound almost the same, Ben. |

Yeah seriously, I'm massively disappointed at how non-Scottish Dervish sounds :mad:
The Scots have some of my favourite accents ever :( |

Well that's what we really sound like, mine is basically a big mix of them. I'm from about as far north in Scotland as possible (look upWick, Caithness), my family is from Aberdeen, lived there, lived in Edinburgh too.
It is probably stronger when I'm in any of these places though.... and even stronger while drunk I'd guess!!! |

Here, I'm trying to make the difference between "black cock" and "black hawk" in North American English (that is, to those of you that have not merged the words cot and caught yet :p)... I exaggerated a bit |
You got it pretty much, except your "hawk" sounds a bit odd to me. |
