Hi Claire
I think your Scottish accent is positiively refreshing! Even maybe a bit of a novelty in the IM circles? & the more you do, the better and more relaxed you'll become too

Love the accent, I grew up in Wishaw so not far from you. I know my accent is still very strong on audio, and a bit of a monotone, but yours is very nicely modulated.
