My friend calls it 'Supermarket' although it isn't spelt that way.
I think it's 'Supermark-hey'!

What's the view boys 'n' girls?

He's reasonably well educated, and is doing it to annoy me!

The funny thing is he derided some chav from Manchester who he overheard ordering "Chips and alloy" (Chips & Aliolli) in Spain once.
 
When in doubt just do what most Brits do and pronounce anything Spanish in a French accent. It will probably be wrong but it sounds good in front of people that don't know. ;)

LOL! Seriously, mate you really got me laughing there.

In America my accent tends to morph into that of Prince William.

If I take my metal out I can pretend I'm a rich Boho living in Notting Hill.
