Some friends of mine who were these globe trotting glamorous people ended up having an accidental baby. When the child started speaking, it spoke with an almost indecipherably thick Jamaican accent because the only person who had spoken to the child for the first two or three years was the Jamaican nanny. "I can't say with Mr Tinty what it is but what I know for sure is that I was attention seeking," she says.
