It used to be like this, 40 years ago. There were 2 accents.

Strine and Fraffly
Strine (Australian)

Yeppet yousha nut.
Ifer gotta natter
speak Fraffly.
Ipey nwirkin
forpa fesser Lauder,
a nair wiker nony
talk Strine.
It kinder getcher,
few Noah timene.
Fried eye car nelpew

Fraffly (posh English)

Well, dibboy,
wimce trair little hodder.
A noshol we tray
wan smore?
Reddeh? Repee tofter me:
The wren in Spen
in mennleh in the
pline.
Ir, fraffly sorreh,
Emmean the wren
is in the plen

I can translate the posh one but most of the strine has got the better of me.
