not that far from the truth really. i was listening to some interesting prog on Radio 2 a while back about how the Aussie accent is very similar to that from Suffolk,

Heard the same programme, although I have an idea it was on the breakfast show over the Xmas/New Year period when Richard Madley was sitting in for Evans ?

A lot of people assume I'm a Cockney but I'm just good old Sarth London although I was born in "Bang Ole" in Croydon

As for reproducing the "brown out" I'd use the tropical fish stuff for the reasons markmarples states

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
