Rickey Skains went off with my peddle bike

I know when I picked up this book I ahd something in mind to write, but with a few trips here and there I've forgotten what I set out to say. There's a woman visiting my client and she has a mixed like accent, something cockey, something out of the city like. It reminds me of my grandmother, Mom Vincent, in some of the sylables. NOt the cockney bit. Julia becomes Juli-er. I ahve also discovered where the southern shore accent comes from, it's Stewkley. The difference is the accent is much more pronounced and it bafles me how my client understand half of what these people are saying, becuase he sure doesn't hear me mch, even when I'm loud and put on a british accent. I know he must be more used to their voices and lingo, but he also lets on that he knows what you are talking about when really he doesn't. There's a lot of Elmir Fud in these cats.
