I also grew up in Fife, although my parents paid good money so I would have an Edinburgh accent. Glasgow was like a foreign country to us...

I grew up in St Andrews, both of my parents having grown up in England, and went through speech therapy as a young child (due to dyspraxia); unsurprisingly, with that, you can imagine my accent is much closer to RP than any broad Fife accent, though most of my speech is definitely Standard Scottish English.

Well...St Andrews really isn't Fife ;)
