But then, I listen to the Australian readers and think how fantastic they sound, so I guess it's all relative :D

Exactly! An accent's only interesting when it comes from somewhere you're not from. It's all relative. (Perfect example is me growing up: I'd always been told I had a English accent -- dad's English -- until I visited cousins in England, who were amazed by the Australian accent.)

Glad you enjoyed and I'll see if I can get through any more soon.

I really did!
