In Jenny Cornelius's world

In her native universe, Jenny Cornelius lived in 1960s London, “a thousand feet from Carnaby Street”. She was familiar with “Mr Fell”, whose shop was located “on Greek Street just off Old Compton”, and with Lee Ho Fook, a Chinese restaurant “down in Chinatown”. An office of the Intelligence Taskforce also existed in the city. It was crossed by the Thames, which connected to the West India Docks. (PROSE: The Folly of Men) The 900-years-old Westminster Abbey was another notable landmark. (PROSE: Watch the Skies)

The city of Slough was nearby, out past Heathrow. (PROSE: Birds and Snakes)

Liverpool is much too far unless one is going for a good reason, such as an interesting band. (PROSE: How Jenny First Met...)
