Depends if I'm talking to mates or at an interview. I can talk proper BBC english (well if I try really hard ) but most of the time it's a southern england accent i.e. no t's or g's at end of words, no h's at start of words.

Mate is pronounced mae.
What is pronounced wha.
Him and her are pronounced im and er except at the start of a sentence.
Something is pronounced either summin or somethin depending on mood.
Also I tend to avoid the use of the word "are" unless it's really necessary. E.g. I'd say "where you goin?" not "where are you going?" etc.

Great isn't it? Makes me sound really uneducated but it lulls people into a false sense of superiority which can be greatly exploited i.e. made fun of later

If I think of any more distinct characteristics I'll post here.
