OMING back from Oxford in the train last week the only other occupant of the compartment, a middieaged woman, asked me when we were due at Victoria. I told her I hadn’t the faintest idea-had never travelled on the line before. "You're a New Zealander," she said. I asked her how she knew. "Well, I know Jean Batten, and you both have exactly the same inflection in your voices." Someone else, less kind, said that English people ‘iked the New Zealand accent-"when we get over the shock
of your Cockney A."’-
