Morning CLP!

Up with the lark this morning... and probably the larks mates Tash & Noah I suspect.

No idea why different nations react differetly to information. I suspect it's the way that they're taught.

Another fine day to look forward to.

morning all, hope you're well?

It's amazing how different sayings/words can be totally misconstrued (sp?) from country to country, or even county to county come to think of it!
I'm seeing an old mate tonight. One of my bessie pals is home from over the pond to renew the visas and stuff so tonight we're having a biere and gonna reminisce loads - oh and I haven't told the rest of the boys he's back so there's gonna be a few surprised faces when we walk in the boozer tonight - can't wait.
Chris - I think we're all assuming your book is an autobiography?

Have a great day my virtual pals

Hi Chris,

I think gingembre #3 sums it up perfectly - even just in Glasgow itself, the cultural differences are evident from the north to the south - and don't even get me started on east to west!!

gingembre: I hope you have a fabulous night with your mates - what a surprise this will be for some of them! Can you give us a little more information regarding you being on tv?!

Welcome to the blog golfcaddie - you will love it here!

dyoungone: love that song - reminds me of my lovely brother who used to did a brilliant Mick Jagger impression!

Hope everyone else has a great day .... I'm in holiday mode!

Very true Christoff. Its horses for courses in the sales game.

I regularly observe my little gang of salespeople; the ones who can keep it short and snappy are invariably the ones who sell the most.

However. The Irish, now. They love a chat those guys. Many a time one of them will hang around, asking every question under the sun until, eventually, the big guns, aka. meself, have to be drafted in. I say Big Guns; I mean the one who can talk a glass eye to sleep, the one who can talk underwater. I simply keep eye contact, keep 'em chatting, and once they've lost the will to live, bushack. Sale made.

It also helps to make them laugh. Wink at them and pull their legs, and you'll sell an eskimo a fridge.

And I LOVE my little aul ladies. Every time I engage with a little aul wan, he or she will tell me something else I didn't know.

Talking of which, Renee now. Until the age of 83 she was still working in a friend's dress shop. And she was merciless. My friends used to refuse to go in when she was there because she'd sell 'em something or die in the attempt. I well remember picking her up at the end of the day from said shop, holding the door for two ladies on their way out, laden like a couple of pack-horses with bags of purchases.

"Crikey, mum," says I. "Looks like you did a good couple a sales there."

Looking up from the till, Renee hitched up her glasses and replied,

"I know. And they only came in to ask for directions to Lawns Farm."

Good girrdl!

PS. If anyone wants to see Craig in action, I'm not sure if you can get it but try googling RTE Naked Camera series 1. You'll know him when you see him.

On the language thing, you've reminded me of our holiday in Cuba in 2007.

Round the pool in the hotel, every day, they played REALLY REALLY LOUDLY I guess what they thought was "cool dude, hip and happening toons" - a lot of rap basically (personally I always think rap should be preceded with a C).

What the Spanish speaking Cubans dind't get was that the lyrics of the rap tunes they were blasting out were full of swearing, racial hatred, violence etc etc.

Ooooops!

From the gorgeous weather we've been having I'd like Mr Blue Sky especially as tomorrow I'm driving to Butlins for the weekend.

Morning all......apologies for being absent without a note.....rec'd nasty bites on ankle Sat night at BBQ which then became infected some how, so on antibio's with said foot in air watching wimbledon last 2 days....actually was not too bad as the tennis has been great so far....except of course for Sharapova being knocked out yesterday...so no more ladies matches for me to watch now...haha

xx

CLP- isn't it great we're all so different....that's what makes the world such an interesting place.


ARF- Dire Straits..Money For Nothing (chics for free...!)


TBx

CLP-re cultural differences, I used to work for a Multinational Corp, and do the conference call thing between UK, USA and India quite often.....the differences are quite staggering...USA- they think they are the world, so unaware that other countries actually exist (when we did the Euro conversion, they used to call it the Euro Dollar!!! Quite astonishing)..Indians-so willing to please authority, subservient almost, they would never tell a boss anything bad at all...no matter how bad things actually were....

Mind you, god knows what they used to say about us the BRITS?

How up meself am I. Can I apologise for my previous missive, I nearly moderated it meself when I read it back.

Of course I'm not the Big Gun. I'm just the one with the highest boredom threshold.

Just wanted to say that. Thankyou so kindly.

The fact is, though, that any career in sales (not that mine is a career, exactly, more of an enjoyable distraction) can be horribly cut-throat. But my little team are a little cluster of diamonds, gorgeous young ladies, a couple of madwomen and of course, eejits like Craig. And Damian is unclassified, naturally. There are plenty of ruthless sales girls and boys out there who earn big money; but I won't work with them. I simply can't stomach the greed and the ruthlessness which manifests itself in spite and sheer nastiness. Life is simply too short.

Morning Dear Chris and Bloggers,

Lovely sunny day in Kent and long may it continue to shine.

Language is a funny thing, having just spent a week with my friends in the States who are American, I find myself using their words, especially with three small children who often look at me wondering what on earth I've just said to them. I spend the week talking like what they do and they just take the mickey out of me - happy days.

I also used to work for an American Company and that was a laugh a minute. The look on someone's face when they suddenly realised that the Wimbledon Fortnight meant two weeks - priceless.

Can't wait for home time as I am off to see my friend for chat, food, tea and the final two episodes of Grey's Anatomy.

Love
AliB - Sneezy Spice

Double choc please Eb x

Morning peeps, well have finally 'cooked the books' Acountant getting VERY soon (once i've been for a very large caffiene intake)

Next thing on the menu is the horse gettin' new shoes, quick whizz out on him and then back and start cooking for real.

Kids are on hols tonight for EIGHT weeks - feeling the stress already!!!!!

ARF Amazed by Lonestar, only coz I'm amazed that the books are finished.

Love to all,

BLYipE

Baz: sorry to hear about your poorly ankle - I did wonder where you were! Am I wrong, or is the ladies tennis just dire? I haven't seen much, I will confess, but what I have seen is really awful. But, then, my memories are of Chris and Martina, et al, so there is no comparison!

Clodagh: you certainly don't have to explain yourself. If there's one thing you are not, is up yourself. You are one of the stars of this blog - official!

Got home last night to find a couple of guys cutting trees in the garden next to ours. These trees do seem to touch the sky - frighten the life out of me. They must be 50ft at least. Anyway the "lumberjacks" cut down about 15ft and I reckon they will be back today to finish off the job. However .... and I know I'm going on a bit .... but the poor birds who were having their homes destroyed were absolutely distraught. Our garden was full of them, flapping about, not knowing what to do. When I got up this morning, there was one wee wood pigeon sitting beside the garage, completely traumatised! I am no lover of wildlife, but I do feel for those wee birds!

Just had to share!

C xx

Baz - Double choc it is - I find Chocolate always helps with poorly ankles!!

ebx

Ah tanks Chrissie. But I know when I'm gettin', as Renee would say, Peas Above Sticks.

So me peas are back on Ground Zero, no worries.

Funny enough, Renee's just called me in to see Alan Carr on I think it's This morning, talking about when he used to work in a call centre dealing with complaints, and the already irate people on the other end would become even more inflamed at the sound of his voice, thinking he was extracting the urine. Hahaha bless him.

And that, in turn, has me thinking of the GBF Damian when he used to work the sex lines in Dublin. I swear to anyone who has never heard his Derek the Fireman, you've never laughed.

He and Alan Carr were obviously separated at birth. Identical. Mind you, poor Damian musta spent puberty on the rack, big long streak of whatsit that he is.

Oo here he is again. Doin' summer puddin'. Ah no, don't get me goin' about Damian and the strawberry.

Clodagh.xx

Chrissie thanks for the sympathy...

I hate to see any animal in distress (apart from what ever bit me Saturday)...that sounds terrible about the wee birds....my 14 yr old would have refused to go to school and rounded them all up like a surrogate mother...

Take it some cannot fly in which case Mr Fox will have fun tonight...unless you fancy being the said surrogate mother??

TBx

ARF - Echo Beach, Martha & the Muffins please!

Clodagh, Alan Carr's book is brill if you haven't read it yet. I love him - he'd be a great dinner party guest I think!!

Baz: could you please arrange for your daughter to get herself up here pronto?! Ooohhh, I hadn't even thought of Mr Fox - swine that he is! I wish I could be Kate what's-her-name from Springwatch, but I don't do birds.

Now, the RSPB would tell me that I must let nature take it's course - I did once try to save a family of ducklings, but had to let them fend for themselves. Honest, guv, it's the birds that are driving me to drink!

C x

OOH Baz, thanks my friend! Reminds me of student days, just have a hankering to hear it again!

T xxx

Tins, yes indeed, Alan Carr's book is hilarious, I've read it and passed it over to Renee so I get it re-gurgitated down me ear as well. Hurrah.

Anyway, am off to take Renee for her 20,000 miles service. Wish me luck. Or more pertinently, wish the doctor luck. She's here now, spreadin' lipstick liberally round 'er nose. I wish she'd put 'er specs on, she looks like Robert Smith.

OH YES. Get this. Renee bless her is still chortlin' after the near tragedy that befell me yesterday as I went out into the garden to retrieve me smalls and Renee's Sloggi tarpaulin. En route back up the garden path, I clocked meself in the garage window in me new strapless maxi-dress, bloody gorgeous I thought. So, poutin' like that bird on the Pantene advert, tossin' me hair back, you know the script, I glided back indoors and SPLAT.

Right into the patio door. Renee had shut it after me. Now as if that wasn't bad enough, she spent the whole of last night laffin' and chortlin' at the lovely snotty face-print on said window.

Never mind my broken cheekbone.

Huh. The woman is a dangerous guerilla masqueradin' as a harmless old trout.

Clodagh.xx

Morning all - another sunny one.
Tis a funny old world CLP - I agree.

Chrissie my tree men left two trees cos birds were in them and came back later to trim. Always checks first to see if any nests. Nasty tree men - go kick them in the shins.

BLY that was my ARF last week. Love that toon.

Bless you Ali Sneezy keep windows shut today pollen count high!!!

Back later smiley folks

Hi Beez: that's what I thought, too. Surely if there were nests in the trees, they should have left them alone. May I borrow your killer heels to kick them with?!

Killer heels on their way Chrissie - any particular colour - probably red if you are going to do serious damage to the nasty tree persons!!

Woopeee dooo Deev - my fuschia pink flip flops arrived yesterday - you are going higher I am going lower !!! See if you can wear them in the office for three steps - if you can - no probs for champagne bar to eaterie!!

Beez xxx

Sorry Clodagh but that is funny! I remember once doing the same thing to my ex. He came home from jogging trying to look all cool and macho, and ran straight into the conservatory doors.

I'm still laughing!!!

Cruel Deevsta.....poor Posty.

First post on the blog! Have been reading it for months now, but just found a spare 5 mins to register.

Would love to hear "I won't let the sun go down on me" by Nick Kershaw. Perfect for Glasto weekend and wishful thinking for me whose wellies will remain pink and shiny this weekend :-(

Morning all,hello JP1966.

ARF...These boots are made for walking in !

Certainly fiitting for yesterdays experience of Glasto goers.

I was headed away from Glastonbury and the traffic was solid all the way to the motorway and a long way up the motorway too.

Lots of the coach passengers were getting out and walking.

Got to do the same trip again today so will probably experience much of the same.

Hello JP1966. Nik Kershaw takes me back to my 6th Form days!

MFT - sorry - meant to say yesterday about Gene Genie - I would've sent you the video tape with it on, but as soon as we watched it, we taped Dexter over it. So sorry! Not sure if its out to buy on DVD, but might be worth checking with your local library to see if you can borrow it from there .....

Cultural Differences - Same applies to sound... I used to work for a PA system manufacturer, they tailored the speaker's response curves depending upon where in the world they were going, Europe - dead flat, USA - a smile (more treble & bass) Far East - more treble & less bass.



Anyway - real reason for responding - "Stepford Tunes".
I was driving along yesterday, as usual listening to the last 1/2 hour of Steve Wright (before listening to the first half hour of you) Sunny day, sun roof open, windows open, feeling happy, familiar strains of my all-time (in spite of being an old rocker) favourite pop song's intro come on the radio "YES!..." I shouted, and reached for the volume control, "...NO!!!!!" I shouted, and reached for it again.

Wishy washy gutless PAP! It's not just a sample, they've cut the head off a very dear friend and replaced it with a clone - of someone I don't like.

So can I please request "Echo Beach" by Martha and the Muffins as the starting tune (or at least in the first 20 mins of the show.)

Don those wellies everyone here comes the rain.

Slinging it down here in Somerset.

MTF.xx

Chris.

Interesting post today.

I guess the real skill is not to fall into the trap of over generalisation, as it is unlikely that all the people in a country of 100's of millions all think and act in the same way all the time.

Another danger is that of racial stereotyping ie all people from country A are lazy, all people from country B are loud and brash etc, everyone should be taken on their merits.

On the whole differences are cultural and what is acceptable in country can be highly objectionable in another, this applies to non verbal communication as well, a purely innocent hand gesture in one country can be extremely insulting in another.

It is all this though that makes the world go round. It would be a very boring place indeed if we were all the same.

Dear Chris,

I have started and deleted many posts in response to yesterday's blog. I'm going to keep my trap shut, except to say that if you haven't read it already, read The Second Plane by Martin Amis, together with just about anything written by Christopher Hitchens on this subject.

Over and out.

Love ya.

xx

Hmmmmm, Christophe...cultural differences eh? Does your man do body language as well? It was fairly difficult on recent hols to remember which bit of my body I wasn't supposed to cross or point at the various nationalities staying in the same resort...or which bits to cover up either...

Unforchunettly I'm one of those people who quite often speaks before they think...which has got me into a bit of bovver on the odd (other types of occasion available) occasion...and I know I have prev menched that my lovely mummy reckons I can waffle for England...but I usually manage to get my point across.

Eventually.

Although apparently if you bank with the aitchessbeecee they do all that for you.

Hi all

I'm feeling a bit better today, mainly cos I've finally persuaded my colleagues to use the office A/C instead of letting all the pollen in through the window!

Chrissie, such a shame about the birds. I hate hearing that nests have been disturbed.

Baz, feel for you with the foot, I'm badly allergic to horsefly bites, and have to get treated asap.

As to cultural differences, I've lived in the S East, W Mids, S Wales, and N West, and yes, I'd say we're all pretty different!!!
