I phoned M for our biweekly catch-up today. She was having a bit of a tough day so after lots of validating, I tried my best to perk up her spirits with a round of "Is this how they say it in Coventry, or is this just my mum making up how to pronounce words?". Catchy title, I know. But turns out that M also pronounces Co-Op as Co-OP (subtle differences), so we decided it was a Coventrian thing.
