I bet they taught you the tourist pronunciation, didn't they! Ha ha -
it gets them every time. I love it when tourists ask me how to find
their way to 'Suvverk' and 'Lester Square'. I never get tired of that
joke.

If you really want to impress the locals next time you're here, try
the proper Cockney pronunciations - 'sooth vark' and 'leek easter
square'. You'll be amazed at their friendly reaction - they might even
offer you a pint of their local pastie and a knees up!

The best way to pronounce 'superfluous' is 'too much'.
