  A class of exact solutions of Einstein's equations is analysed which
describes uniformly accelerating charged black holes in an asymptotically de
Sitter universe. This is a generalisation of the C-metric which includes a
cosmological constant. The physical interpretation of the solutions is
facilitated by the introduction of a new coordinate system for de Sitter space
which is adapted to accelerating observers in this background. The solutions
considered reduce to this form of the de Sitter metric when the mass and charge
of the black holes vanish.
