It's worse. It' like trying to interpret Seafort's and Reliant's local slang.

Ah, I can't really associate myself with an area of heritage. I should be wondering around like a cockney based on my home, but living in Italy disconnected me from that. My parents have always raised me to be quintessentially english in speech, so I'm not a "Pompey Lad" either. I sound, at best, like someone from a small, expensive village in Surrey.

That's a long way north from where I was born, and even longer North-west from where I live.

At least, long way to us.

Sometimes?

Yes, I would love to go pet the rabbits. Hmm? What?

Hey, I'm not the guy who goes on about pissing on people, or whatever it is you Brits like to say. I mean, I knew a girl who-
