Have no fear, Ed, your accent is quite easy to understand. And provided you dial the right number, it won't matter whether you are speaking to Norwich or Harwich. (Though it is Norwich - Coot Club - not Harwich - WDMTGTS.)
I used to have much the same problem at IBM. The French, Italians, etc used to say that when there were presentations in English, they found it easier to understand the Germans than the British and Americans who spoke it as a first language.
