Real Cockney is very rare indeed, 'Mockney' is perhaps better.
Full on Cockney can be tricky to understand, and you sound like you're from Woolwich / Plumstead where I used to reside *laughs*.
Seriously though various accents can be hard to understand, prefer relatively neutral accents problem is those tend to coincide with the most expensive areas to hire labour.
