How to speak Nottingham

I'm sure if anyone were to drop enough f & c, punctuated by the occasional duck, chhooolookn at? and chonabaaaaht? with a vaguely northern accent, they could probably pass.
 
I found that working in the corporate world and living in other countries, I've softened my accent, but whenever I get pissed off at someone or get a bit of road rage, I drop right back in to it.

It's a perfect accent for getting lary, aggressive, intimidating, sweary, cheeky, shouty, fighty, mardy etc because I suppose that's who we are as a city.
