"Aynt no trines bick to Loondun after tan-farty-throy, mite!" This apparently represents a "cockney" accent. In other news, still not enjoying the book much. Will keep plodding through it. What to read next?

Honestly, it's about as convincing as Dick van Dyke in Mary Poppins!

Only a little way in, but not enjoying this one much so far. Shriver`s writing is just grating on my every nerve. For the love of God, woman, just stop it with the ridiculous overuse of mockney-isms already.It's really not working!
