Go figure. It's all in the ear. Talk the way you like and everybody is happy.

I agree, it's all in the ear. I was in New Mexico several years ago and attracted a crowd because of my East Texas drawl. But when I talked to friends from New York, they said I didn't have an accent or drawl. In any case, I wouldn't expect you to use the Justin Wilson accent, I would have expected to hear a real accent but now I will not think accent and wish you the best in displaying your awards. I have done this in many different ways and frequently changed and am not really totally satisfied with any method but one has to find what's best for him or her and do it. Therefore, mine are in archival quality plastic envelopes inside shallow boxes, not really on display but I can take them out and show them without anybody handling the actual medal or award book.
