Non-rhotic accent, eh? Estuary English?
"ˈθʌrə"'s was interesting to me, I'd render "thorough" in my ideolect (Southern-inflected General American) "θʌrow". Is your pronunciation "standard" in British English (or whatever the prestige variant where you're from is)?
Also, I think you meant "ðə ˈmɛtᵊl Pb lɛd"
- housecarpenter 3y agoˈθʌrə is standard in British English. Likewise "borough" is ˈbʌrə in British English and ˈbʌrow in American English. "Edinburgh" is ˈɛdɪnbʌrə / ˈɛdɪmbrə in British English, and Wiktionary says this is the American pronunciation too, but I've definitely heard American say ˈɛdɪnbʌrow.
