1 (Tape 130301)

Anne (PS6RW) [1] Those people who have the record sheets from last week, ten, ten people that are doing work for the British National Corpus.
[2] Erm, could you just put your hands up if you're doing recording for Corpus.
[3] One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, who's the tenth?
[4] You're all sharing [...] so who's, who's got their partners [...] ?
Kitty (PS6RX) [5] We've got all partners here [crackling microphone]
Anne (PS6RW) [6] So, who hasn't got their partner here?
[7] So only nine people with their hands up.
Rebecca (PS586) [8] Yeah, Jill, erm, [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [9] There're going to be ten of you.
[10] Erm, are you happily doing it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [11] Yes. [microphone moved]
Anne (PS6RW) [12] I've got some more of these sheets if anybody wants them [...] There are a lot of them on my door, and not very many of them are taken away.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [13] Mm.
Anne (PS6RW) [14] Erm, so, if they are on my door.
[15] They've been on my door since late [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [16] Yes.
Anne (PS6RW) [17] If you want more of these ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [cough] ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [18] [...] difficult.
[19] [paper rustling] ... Really got to define what [...] mm.
[20] [...] actual and description from different you know different conversations [...] to one complication.
Anne (PS6RW) [21] Yes, I'm just about to give you an assignment sheet, those ten people.
[22] Erm, and actually formalize the assignment, so people will see what you've got to do, if the others will bear with me for a minute or two.
[23] But before I give you the assignment sheet, erm, how are you getting on?
[24] Are there any, erm, unforeseen, erm, problems?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [25] Yeah [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [26] It's more difficult than I thought actually.
[27] About background, like with most people, there's always something on in the background
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [28] [...] conversations [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [29] like the radio, T V and it muffles it all out.
[30] So.
[31] Got to try and talk without the T V on.
Anne (PS6RW) [32] So th the problems were acoustics,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [33] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [34] rather than problems with remem remembering the tape recorder which [...] comes out, it
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [35] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [36] actually [...] so don't let's feel you haven't coped.
[37] Any other problems?
[38] Has, has anybody [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [39] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [40] No.
Anne (PS6RW) [41] How do you all like, if you tell people, you know, without causing offence, do you normally tell people after you've done it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [42] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [43] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [44] And no doubt, everyone said fine.
[45] Has it been [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [46] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [47] [...] by the time you've taped something, it's done.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [48] Few.
Anne (PS6RW) [49] Helen.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [50] I'm still on my first one, actually
Anne (PS6RW) [51] Tape one of two. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [52] Two.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [53] Got one.
Anne (PS6RW) [54] One, yes, right.
[55] So you will obviously erm, if you can, try and do a bit more, because this time next week we're into [...] back.
[56] Next Friday morning, I think you were all here when we were planning this, but just to remind you, next Friday morning, erm, somebody else is coming from the team in Harlow.
[57] I don't [cough] know if it will be the same person.
[58] To talk about transcription, and we will run that on a workshop basis, I hope.
[59] [...] I'll try and look to sort of student access [...] [cough] erm, total theoretical [...] will have, erm, some of your own transcripts by then.
[60] Erm, so could you all, including those people who aren't working on this project, bring erm, one of your tapes, because you're all taping the assignment, anyway.
[61] You may not have got round to doing it yet, but bring something next week.
[62] A a tape, and B a short piece of transcription.
[63] It may not be the bit that you're going to eventually use for your assignment, because you're a bit unsure [...] taped up your assignment, but bring a short transcription, at least one side of A four, because if you do that, you will, if you've given yourself a chance of actually trying it out, you will begin to see the problems and [...] and the whole thing will be much more interesting and more rewardable.
[64] If I'm boring this time, you haven't tried it, but if you, if you can do it then erm, it'll be a really interesting session, of sort of getting together in groups and discussing the problems and sorting ways out of problems.
[65] So let's be free ... at least one tape erm, at least, at least one side [crackling] based on the tape.
[66] And have your tape wound to the place that you've transcribed, so that, if necessary you will be ready to replay the bit that you can't transcribe it, to the others, or to one of us, erm, to explain why you can't do it.
[67] Erm, we won't say too much about transcription systems at the moment, erm, just do, do it according to what you think are the most important bits to get down onto paper.
[68] When you're trying to write down speech, you can see that there are all sorts of problems initially, of how much you write down.
[69] And, all of you will probably make different choices.
[70] Do you write down, for example, the pauses, and if you write the pauses, do you try and write how long they are?
[71] And what, erm, decided you to use the pauses.
[72] Do you try and write down hesitations?
[73] ... And if so, how do you write them down, what, what, how do you spell a hesitation?
[74] The ers and the erms.
[75] How do you [laughing] spell that [] ?
[76] Do you want [...] spelling for all hesi hesitations,ju ju ju just to show that somebody's hesitated?
[77] Or do you want to show exactly how they've hesitated?
[78] All these sorts of things are going to be the sorts of things that we'll bring up in discussion, but you won't realize what the problems are until you tried doing it.
[79] Today we're going to try
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [80] Has anybody actually found [...] writing it all out because as soon as you do, you'll be faced with hundreds of choices.
[81] Do you just do it like a school dictation in French, writing down the words, with conventional punctuation.
[82] Full stops at the end.
[83] Or do you try and put in all these extra things like pauses, hesitations, intonation,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [84] rhythm, stress ... you can go on, getting so detailed, that it, as St Steve said last week, you can spend sort of half an hour on half a sentence, if you put it, if you try to put in everything.
[85] That's obviously unprincipled.
[86] So you got the whole spectrum of, or if you're just doing it like French dictation, it won't, if words tend to just, to just be spoken language, right through to an immensely detailed erm, attempts to put everything down, including tone of the voice, and all these other ones which are extremely difficult to [...] ... I think you noticed that I was standing looking at the transcriptions [...] near each team.
[87] And you listen to the voices.
[88] If you read the transcription first, there is only a very small proportion of the actual information get right to the [...] .
[89] Erm, totally missing, really is the voice quality, which is a, one of the main ways in which we judge somebody's character, isn't it?
[90] And, so would you want to put some more of that in, and erm [...] all these, all these things, as I've said, will help you to, to speak.
[91] [crackling in background] So, everybody you're looking at.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [92] Mm.
Anne (PS6RW) [93] Sorry, what about, erm, so people have been taping,th actually it's ten people.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [94] Mm [clears throat]
Anne (PS6RW) [95] Erm, you've apparent problems of lack of clarity, well that's absolutely normal erm, but they've built into the system.
[96] Erm, what, erm, also ... you haven't had a problem with being rejected.
[97] Have, have you had a problem of remembering to turn it on, remembering the batteries [...] [cough]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [98] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [99] It's quite difficult to tell how much tape's gone, if you got [sigh] that much tape left, you think you can get more conversation on and you can't.
[100] It's difficult to judge the [...] especially when the person that you [...] for by someone just popping round and picking something up and they stay for ages, [laughing] and they didn't know I was taping and then [] something clicked up in the middle of it.
[101] But I mean I lost half the conversation, they wondered what was going on.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [102] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [103] Yes, it would have been quite useful to have given that tape as some indication on that little diagram on the tape recorder, about a minute or, they're all standard tape recorders, how much measure, how much is it in terms of time, a minute of your tape is ten minutes [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [104] And also of course, a, a, a problem that you can't solve is, you never know in advance how long a conversation's going to be.
[105] Can you?
[106] So you may think you've half a tape left, which is, should be ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [107] Fifteen minutes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [108] No, forty five minutes.
Anne (PS6RW) [109] Forty five each side.
[110] Erm, even if you know how much time you've got left, you never [...] how long they're going to talk for.
[111] I think they're bound to respond to that, I mean, as you turn it over and keep going on.
[112] So that's cer certainly a problem.
[113] Any other things that we can, perhaps solve? ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [114] So it's easier than ... you said it's more difficult than if you want to get clear recordings.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [115] Yeah, somebody said that, it's alright now, though.
Anne (PS6RW) [116] That's, well, that's good, well, there aren't any other problems that we need to talk about now.
[117] Erm, good.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [118] [...] got something [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [119] Was it, were you there when erm, Steve was saying that he would leave behind with me a recorder's [...] programme.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [120] No.
Anne (PS6RW) [121] Erm, tell me if I'm repeating it, because I have said it to a couple of other groups I know, especially the Wednesday group.
[122] So tell me if I've told you this before.
[123] That he did leave behind a after lunch, when you, after you'd gone, a couple of very useful disks.
[124] One was the disk erm, which actually held about [cough] erm, three hours' worth of conversations straight from the corpus er banking, er composition.
[125] So that we have got a disk which we can put into the machines down there in the computer room, a whole lot of transcriptions that they've already made.
[126] They are all based round one person, one speaker, somebody called Fred [...] .
[127] He lives in Croydon, erm, he's old, so we've got quite a lot of [...] conversation.
[128] [...] I think he's seventy five, he's retired.
[129] But you got conversation with him and his family [crackling microphone] two generations of his family at his house perhaps in Croydon.
[130] Erm, with his brother I think from Hemel Hempstead, erm, and a lot of pub conversations, in a pub called The Lion in Croydon, with erm, I think it must be an ex-girlfriend.
[131] It's quite suggestive kind of conversations, especially for a seventy five year old.
[132] [laughing] Quite suggestive [] .
[133] And, and, it's all very very spontaneous and really quite quite nicely done.
[134] Erm, when I really learnt to use this myself, in the computer room [cough] [...] go along there for, half an hour one Friday, and have a look at it, because you might, in your second assignment possibly like to, to use this data in some way.
[135] Look at it.
[136] I've got transcriptions, I've got printouts as well.
[137] Erm, but use it in order to look at ready made conversations in order to collect [...] .
[138] So you can get these conversations up on computer screen, all of them, and you can pick them out [...] .
[139] Well, that doesn't sound too exciting, because basically you're ending up with transcripts, well, ready made transcripts.
[140] Erm, but as I say it's a good thing that you're doing yourselves.
[141] Just more of the same.
[142] The interest on this, is that he also left a second disk.
[143] And that is, now did he mention that or didn't he, or did I [...] because [...] .
[144] Do you know what [...] ?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [145] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [146] No.
Anne (PS6RW) [147] Right, well, this is the interesting thing, in a way, that bring, you might, very well like to go and play with them in the computer room.
[148] Some time, anyway, [...] set my work.
[149] Erm, you, this is the second program, it's relative with the conversations, and relative with the recording [...] as well. [cough]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [150] Well it can access all the words, er, on the disks.
[151] So if you wanted to look for example, at hesitations, and try to do an analysis of where he had hesitated and why he hesitated, who hesitates more than others.
[152] Just to take an example.
[153] You type it on your computer, erm, say er, or erm, or other hesitation markers, that you will predict will mark hesitation, and on your scr you type this on the keyboard, and on your screen, you will get a whole list of [cough] places where this is used with the beginning bit of the sentence, and the end bit of the sentence, and all the ers will be listed down the middle of the screen, with the line numbers, here, so you can check back to where it comes from.
[154] So that you may find that all the hesitations are by women, or most of them by women, or most of them are in the pub, or most of them are a after ten at night, or ar you know, you can look at the context in which certain words, certain conversational gambits that some of them use.
[155] And it's a very quick and very interesting, [...] by comparing data [...] and looking at what you've got.
[156] Because obviously you could do this by hand, you could do it by [...] it took ages and could be very boring.
[157] You can get it spaced up on the screen, and you can print it out.
[158] Erm, I don't know whether you can think of any other words that would be use useful but erm, if you weren't looking at hesitations, you might look at erm,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [159] Perhaps use the first names and put out the meaning of the first names of the ...
Anne (PS6RW) [160] Yes, that would be quite interesting, wouldn't it, when we talked about some forms of address.
[161] Wait, I've got an instant who's taking part in the conversations and you could type in the first names of those people and then again you'll get back some why the use of the first name.
[162] Which would surround the context and you'd be able to see when people, the real [...] first names.
[163] Erm, perhaps those aren't very [...] of examples, but, I think you can see, that there are enormous scope for erm, looking at a large amount of language.
[164] They're very economical, and very interesting way of [...] .
[165] So as I say, [laughing] when I've got erm, actually to know [] how these [...] reference disks work, then I'll be able to use them and talk.
[166] We will then look at [...] thousand and one bits and see what effect and follow that up.
[167] And next year's student, or even next term's, perhaps, depending on how quick you do it, your conversations, what you're doing now, once they're transcribed and put onto disk would be very interesting, because we'll have a disk from our St Mary's [...] students, transcribed, because Steve promised he would get them all transcribed.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [168] And they would go on disk [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [169] And ... but he can get them on to a disk.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [170] Oh, God, don't want mine on a disk. [laugh]
Anne (PS6RW) [171] Well, [laugh] if you don't want them on, that's the whole problems of [...] obviously saying, erm, in fact, we don't, if we don't want them on a disk at all, we don't have to have them.
[172] But I think this would be a very useful, erm, useful thing, because we'll have all your conversations on a disk and we'll be able to record and explain too, looking at typical seminars
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [173] erm, and all the other contexts and situations that you've recorded.
[174] Don't forget that when it's transcribed, when it's professionally transcribed, all the names will be changed, so you'll all be anonymous.
[175] [laugh] That's part of the system.
[176] They, they shouldn't be erm, identifiable, because the names and the addresses, telephone numbers, anything that helps you to identify an individual, will be changed.
[177] Erm, but, but think that out, because the, your reaction then was interesting.
[178] Perhaps in a way, if you feel that it's going to be too revealing to have this ... [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [179] Don't they keep [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [180] We, we needn't do it, it just seems to me that it would be [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [181] Like with the names [...] do they the [...] personal?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [182] Names were changed, [...] to protect the innocent.
Anne (PS6RW) [183] Yeah, all the names would be changed, all the, all the names will be changed, automatically.
[184] He said that that's part of the transcription system.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [laugh]
Anne (PS6RW) [185] So in fact, erm, on the disk that we've already got Fred isn't really Fred it's Char it's a substituted name.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [186] Unless you name drop in the conversation, that's the only ... thing that might be a bit revealing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [187] Mm.
Anne (PS6RW) [188] What do you mean, if you refer to somebody?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [189] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [190] Well, that would also be changed.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [191] Oh, really
Anne (PS6RW) [192] All, all proper names with capital letters, would be changed for [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [193] Oh, right.
Anne (PS6RW) [194] Erm, would there be anything else on your tapes that might give the game away? [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [195] Yes. [laugh]
Anne (PS6RW) [196] Well, think about that.
[197] This obviously isn't going to come up as an issue for quite a long time, since transcribing this'll be a long time.
[198] But ... I think what, perhaps the, the best thing to do is when the transcriptions come back, and this may not be till the summer ... because it is a very long long process, when they come back, they will all go back to the person who made them [...] ten people.
[199] And if you don't want to be put onto [...] list, censored, because obviously, that's very important to [...] what would happen there if you want it preserved.
[200] But if you don't want it preserved, I think it would be [...] so nice to have in college, if only for next year's students, and you also would be around for the next two years, I mean [...] if you're doing, if you're doing a language erm, option next year, [...] or even a language recitation erm, this would be quite nice material to use for that.
[201] Cos you will be around to, to, to make use of it at home.
[202] [cough] Anyway, so much for that ... Assignment sheet ... I'll give this to all of you, because [cough] I wouldn't, I don't want to be unfair.
[203] If you think that this assignment is, is sort of preferable to the ones that you've been looking, you could all choose this one, you'll have to do some recording like the others on your own machines, but you could [...] [handing out papers]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [204] [...] have we still got to do two thousand [...] ?
Anne (PS6RW) [205] No, hang on, no hang on.
[206] No, I'll change the length for those people who are doing a lot of recording.
[207] And there's more transcribing.
[208] So listen very carefully.
[209] [shouting] Listen, listen very carefully [] shh, because this is important to get right, erm, because the assign because the assignments are part of your degree mark, and have to go to the external examiner, and has to be monitored etcetera etcetera etcetera, it's all quite formal and so we do need to get this right.
[210] I, I've got to have something from you ten people, you ten recording people because, because it's reasonably erm, represented, like, I can't give it, in other words I can't give you a chance to explain this as much as I would like to, because it's not fair on the other people.
[211] And it's also, but not fair on you or me, because I felt, the guilty, you know, we won't be, we all do it.
[212] There won't be any depreciation.
[213] Some people won't do anything less than the others.
[214] I've got to have something that I can mark, to the representative marks that show your, your ability and how much you've put into it.
[215] Erm, so, supposing you're all doing this.
[216] You don't have to, but supposing you all choose this.
[217] Let's put two columns.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [blowing nose]
Anne (PS6RW) [218] The British National Corpus [blowing nose] those ten people were doing British National Corpus and the others.
[219] I'll write down any differences on here and make sure you write them down at the end.
[220] Transcription ... this project is based on a study of recording two, that wouldn't apply to all of you, should involve [...] recording itself, audio cassette.
[221] The others can [...] them from that.
[222] You can't, because you are doing audio cassettes for the erm, audio [...] .
[223] [cough] And your transcription of two to three set of minutes of talk.
[224] Erm, a transcription [cough] two to three minutes, you can do a short transcription.
[225] The Corpus people, you're going to spend much more time doing on the art of transcribing.
[226] So you'll have five minutes to do some.
[227] He's put at least five minutes, five minutes plus.
[228] At least five minutes of transcription, erm, which you'll learn to do next week on Friday.
[229] Now I'll put a line to do a transcription [cough] [...] transcription goes in an appendix, put your transcription at the back of your work, in according to Appendix A and number the lines, so that you can refer to them in the body or wherever.
[230] You'll find ten as an example of whatever.
[231] Temptations are particularly evident in lines sixteen to seventeen etcetera.
[232] It saves a lot of time to change numbers.
[233] You should follow your transcription with an exclamation [cough] [...] if used to indicate stress intonation, pauses, local effects etcetera etcetera etcetera.
[234] Er, in other words a key.
[235] So everybody [cough] [...] put in a general key.
[236] A transcription is a key.
[237] And this explains what you'll do next week.
[238] Don't worry about the key because that's just what erm, [...] discussing, next time.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [239] [...] if you go into appendix as well.
Anne (PS6RW) [240] Yes, let's call between appendix two, just to make it absolutely cut and dried.
[241] Right, Appendix A transcription and Appendix B was [cough] [...] .
[242] Erm, you can use ordinary spelling, you probably will use ordinary spelling, or phonetic transcription, this may be for short sections.
[243] That's entirely optional, we'll talk again about that next week.
[244] [...] a transcription you remember last year, we had about one week on phonetics, and John , some people came to the John talk, where we didn't really talk about phonetics script there.
[245] Phonetic script is something that people usually, fills people with horror, so don't worry about it.
[246] Some people, there are always a few people who, who love it.
[247] Who like playing with it.
[248] But there are very few, so that's optional.
[249] It is very useful, if you're trying to write down something like accent, say northern accent, would be, but would sound in words like cook, [clears throat] there's no way of really doing that unless you use phonetic transcription.
[250] But, erm, you may not, you may not want to do that.
[251] Erm, but so give, give a brief note to justify your choice, and use transcripts or you haven't because ... that's at the end of your [...] .
[252] That's, that's the next [...] .
[253] Introduction ... your introduction should explain briefly why you chose to analyze this particular sample.
[254] [cough] You people, the Corpus people will have a large sample by then, you'll have a lot to choose from.
[255] So just put a paragraph in, saying why you've chosen this particular bit, and in fact, all of you can do that.
[256] The introduction will be same for all of you.
[257] Explaining your choice [cough] [...] this conversation especially interesting.
[258] Erm, do a general account of recording material indicating its source and giving background information.
[259] But when I say recording material, I just mean one conversation that you're, you're transcribing.
[260] If you were to do, if any of your transcripts in lots of little bits.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [261] No.
Anne (PS6RW) [262] So I just want two, two to do two comparing tape.
[263] Got two conversations of different people but they
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [264] They vary in interest [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [265] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [266] Okay.
[267] Right, don't don't make it too bitty.
[268] I'm just thinking if you did lots and lots of little bits, I think you'll find it quite difficult to make the rest of it coherent.
[269] If you've got something that's crying out in comparison about two labourers or two women or whatever.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [270] Yes.
[271] But that would be two and a half minutes each, roughly.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [272] Between two and three [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [273] Erm, so, this material, whether it's one longer bit, or two shorter bits, it's up over there.
[274] Do you have any indication of its source, and say something about the background of people.
[275] What kind of things will be important for the background to mention it do you think?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [276] Age.
Anne (PS6RW) [277] Age.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [278] The relationship with them.
Anne (PS6RW) [279] Relationship.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [280] The setting [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [281] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [282] In fact, all those, yes, all those, I did briefly mention all those things on the diagram er that we had before.
[283] You could do this, erm, [...] you could photocopy
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [284] Introductions
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [285] [...] introductions.
Anne (PS6RW) [286] Source, the background
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [287] The background information.
Anne (PS6RW) [288] These things here, could be, you could photocopy these, the diagram that you've all got.
[289] Erm, maybe photocopy it a bit smaller.
[290] So that you've got an A four size.
[291] Or even, even try to get perhaps, piece, a piece of A three paper.
[292] I'm just trying to think of a clearer economical way of putting it.
[293] Perhaps a double size piece of paper you can fold in your [...] and then put the diagram in the middle, photocopy it, and stick it on, glue it on, the diagram.
[294] And then you could put arrows round the outside, for comments that you might [...] conversation, erm, conversation A and B, if you're doing two.
[295] Then you would need two of the [...] , two of these sheets if you were doing two conversations, but only one if you've done one.
[296] And then [...] say, for example, the thing over here was, something like bystanders, wasn't it, on the left hand side.
[297] So you could just [...] all out in rhyming prose which takes a long time.
[298] A lot clearer could be erm, let's say bystanders, [...] bystanders three, two of whom were half listening.
[299] Erm, just a short note, if you see the big [...] lot of [...] over there, and er, I think it would have been probably easier trying to describing it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [300] Is that Appendix C?
Anne (PS6RW) [301] Erm, well I put it at the [...] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [302] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [303] You [laugh] it's in the introduction here.
[304] You could have an instruction [blowing nose] full details of the situation are given in Appendix C.
[305] Or you could put it into your introduction depending on which way you feel it is to handle.
[306] So, is that clear?
[307] Introduction, why you've chosen to, to analyze this sample, and what is a source on the background information.
[308] Indicate the focus of interest in the approach you intend to take.
[309] I'll come back to that.
[310] [...] . Next, the body of your essay.
[311] Analyze your material by means of selected description of interesting and significant features of material transcribed.
[312] With reference if necessary to features, in the rest [...] transcribe it.
[313] Recording.
[314] And conclusion, comment on the insights of your final analysis.
[315] [...] The body, shall I say.
[316] The other people who are [...] two thousand words.
[317] And follow this thing about the body in your essay.
[318] So that you want to say exactly what is interesting and significant to you too.
[319] So you pick up these things.
[320] Once you've done this, pick out the things that you think are significant.
[321] The bystanders may not be significant.
[322] There may be two bystanders, but they really, you don't think they made any particular difference to the way the conversation went, so you might pick out relationships in general, or topic, or something else, but pick out the things that you think being significant in the conversation, and describe them.
[323] In some detail, because you've got two [...] to do it ... I think that's all.
[324] And then, conclude by what have you learnt about the talk, [...] make sure the [...] and then the appendix should include your transcription which a key.
[325] There's one not, not in there, not for example, the book you've already got tells you [...] transcription and submit your tape round to the position at which your transcription [...] two thousand words.
[326] So really Harlow do not do Corpus or at least were not aware of it.
[327] If you are doing a lot of work [cough] reports, you're going to do a longer transcription, and the transcription's going to [...] , cos you've got to make sure that your transcription's according to the basis of [...] consistent in its way around.
[328] It's useable by [...] it's going to go into the, the archives for public consumption.
[329] So the trade lock for this extra transcription is if you do more than, or if you do a lot, erm do the same introduction, but your essay, the body of your essay, erm, can be very short, the body of your essay, erm, about [...] one paragraph only, you're just going to need to do something quite short, and your conclusion on the insights is what, is what is going to be important [...] .
[330] Okay, so that's, that's short.
[331] The main body of yo the work wo with Corpus will be doing more of the transcription and linking up with what insights have been found about ... transcribing.
[332] Any facts about transcribing [...] finished [...] .
[333] And the whole thing can be shorter, one thousand [...] .
[334] I don't think you should have so much, and I'm not going to count, so I'm not going [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [335] You'll obviously want to make it, you don't want to make it too short [...] you're going to have enough words to get yourself a good mark.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [336] So you can wr do more transcribing.
[337] Even if you're doing more recording, more transcribing, [...] nicely.
[338] The writing will have a different focus.
[339] Insights about the, the actual recording and transcribing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [340] [whispering] Transcribing [] .
Anne (PS6RW) [341] Erm, [...] fact clear.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [342] Yes.
[343] [...] in saying, erm, we in fact, you know, backup our [...] transcription.
[344] Erm, [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [345] Mm.
[346] Yes, the more you can do, the better it gets.
[347] Yes, do use, you need a bibliography, all of you need a bibliography so you can make comparisons [sneeze] what other people have found, so to read round before you do [...] but erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [348] If you balance, tape recordering , but, but you notice one particular piece that you would rather do an essay on rather than that bit there.
[349] Can you do the other one?
[350] If takes it [...] to transcribe it, can we still write the essay?
[351] Rather than do this.
[352] You know what I mean? [sneeze]
Anne (PS6RW) [353] Well, yes.
[354] Do the essay on the left,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [355] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [356] to be transcribed on the right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [357] Even though?
Anne (PS6RW) [358] Erm, I think it would be a pity if you did that, because we got all this, you know, equipment and stuff, if you don't, why do you think it might be [...] ?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [359] Transcription gonna take ages to type.
Anne (PS6RW) [360] Erm, right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [361] [...] days.
Anne (PS6RW) [362] No, I don't think it'll take days.
[363] Because conversations are usually quite slow, and to, and there will be a lot of pauses ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [364] It is difficult to guess how much transcription is needed.
[365] I think maybe [cough] what I'm going to do with transcriptions again.
[366] Cover the variations in speed, I'm going to try and define it in pages rather than speed, because finding it difficult is speed, [...] whereas if you got a sl a slow speaker there are longer pauses and hesitations.
[367] This is going to be a lot more [...] erm, let's call it two pages and five pages.
[368] A four pages.
[369] Erm, and I've no idea the time [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [everyone talking]
Anne (PS6RW) [370] Let's change it to pages.
[371] Because, it is, I think that's much fairer than doing minutes, cos you still get the [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [372] Do you mean pages as in both sides, or sides?
Anne (PS6RW) [373] Sides, sides.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [374] Right.
Anne (PS6RW) [375] So there are [...] sides.
[376] Sides, two sides.
[377] So would it very boring just to go through this again? [...] confusion.
[378] I'll just go through this again, because it's, you know, two different groups.
[379] [cough] Who's not doing this?
[380] Who's not doing the Corpus?
[381] Two thousand words, you can use video if you want to.
[382] That's audio.
[383] You can tape it off the television or the radio for that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [384] [whispering] That's if you want to []
Anne (PS6RW) [385] Your transcription is shorter, cos they're two sides.
[386] Your key is the same.
[387] You do your introduction at the back, with why you've chosen this as background.
[388] Why you've chosen this bit, and what is the background.
[389] And then you just follow through with the introduction at the end.
[390] [...] [cough] Corpus books, do also essays, many use audio, your transcription is long, let's see either side.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [391] Yes, it's the whole thing,
Anne (PS6RW) [392] I think he'd
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [393] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [394] The introduction, why you've chosen this particular conversation.
[395] Then, just a little bit about the background.
[396] Or what you found about the conversation, but your completion is mainly about the insights of doing this erm, transcription. [...] [lecturer still talking, but incoherent above the following conversation]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [397] [whispering] No actually, it can't be, can it?
[398] [...] I don't think it does count.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [399] It doesn't, it doesn't
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [400] It's in the appen it's the appendix at the back
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [401] Mm, you gonna ask her
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [402] I'll ask her [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [403] Erm, is this something to [...] ?
Anne (PS6RW) [404] No, [...] if you can do that, do that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [405] So we've got the choice?
Anne (PS6RW) [406] You've the choice.
[407] You've got the choice.
[408] But, erm, I just thought perhaps erm, it would be unfair not to give you a choice. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [409] Anne.
[410] The transcription is separate from the total number of words, isn't it?
Anne (PS6RW) [411] Yes,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [412] Right.
Anne (PS6RW) [413] [...] transcription itself, [...] almost the [...] number of words.
[414] It would take ages to [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [415] [...] words.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [416] Yeah. [laugh]
Anne (PS6RW) [417] Okay.
[418] How soon [...] .
[419] If, if there are problems, because you can see I'm a little bit unsure of length, myself.
[420] I haven't done this before.
[421] If there are problems,le we could work them through together, but I think this is much more interesting to be, sort o I think to be linked in with an outside project like this, and just to be working away in isolation, and so we'll feel our way experimentally.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [422] Yeah, cos I mean, the conversation you might wanna use, well may go on much longer than five sides, so ... you've got
Anne (PS6RW) [423] Good point, yes.
[424] Take, just take a, a sa sample of it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [425] If you, yes, certainly, you can use bits, you [shouting] bits [] of a long conversation if necessary.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [426] Are you gonna do [...] with Jo?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [427] In case bits from the examiner penalizes yes, certainly, I'll justify that [...] he won't.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [428] Erm, because, if he, if you're worried about the external examiner.
[429] Al although our college regulations say that, these [...] should be two thousand words or equivalent.
[430] It always says, or equivalent, that's [cough] just in order to open up the possibilities like this, so that we're not caught by some legalistic oath.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [431] So if you can use
Anne (PS6RW) [432] And so the equivalent for you who is doing the [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [433] Sorry. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [434] One long conversation, you can use different parts of that one long conversation ... is that what you say?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
Anne (PS6RW) [435] Well, no I didn't.
[436] I said, [laugh] you got a, a long, a long conversation, say, ten minutes.
[437] For our purposes you just need to take any bit, either the beginning, the middle or the end, that seem to be the best bit, the interesting bit.
[438] If I take out a chunk, you can do [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [439] I do think that you're, when you're doing it, thinking of doing two bits, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [440] But I just like to [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [441] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [442] But you're, well you, supposing you've got two long conversations, what you want to do is two [...] bits, I can transfer bits out of
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [443] If erm, you know the way the transcript was written down.
Anne (PS6RW) [444] Yes, sorry.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [445] Well, [...] to write on it, because it, you'll have some on one [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [446] The overlap, yes.
[447] Well, let's talk about those technicalities next week.
[448] You may have to do it in longhand.
[449] Too difficult to type.
[450] Wh when it's, when you get, when you're getting interruptions, like we just had then
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [451] [whispering] Great []
Anne (PS6RW) [452] you're transcribing this [...] erm, it is, it is a problem [...] wordprocessor.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [453] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [454] And er, of course, if you're really ca cunning, you may say well, five sides is a difficult, erm, difficult criterion, because let's write B,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [455] but we can't, we can't up against every [...] use your commonsense on that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [456] Do you have to type the essay?
Anne (PS6RW) [457] Preferably yes, it's much easier to mark it, and I must say, research, research shows, that a clearly typed essay does tend to get a better mark.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [458] [whispering] Oh, I hate typing essays []
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [459] Oh. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [460] It does what?
Anne (PS6RW) [461] There has been.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [462] Get that mark.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [463] Really?
Anne (PS6RW) [464] People have done research, [...] giving marks to
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [465] [...] long though.
Anne (PS6RW) [466] the same piece of work handwritten and typed.
[467] Erm, and it, it does score higher
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [468] when it's typed.
[469] People are influenced.
[470] We're human and you, you're influenced by presentation, so if you can type it ... it's not compulsory, but it is, would be in your interest that it's typed, if you can.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [471] Are you going to do the one on the left hand side.
[472] Would you still have to mention things like eye contact and gesture, and [clears throat] that?
[473] Or does it [...] ?
Anne (PS6RW) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [474] I can't do that, I [...] thing on our tape. [laugh]
Anne (PS6RW) [475] [...] have we been through the [...] of this group?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [476] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [477] We went through them, didn't we?
Anne (PS6RW) [478] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [479] What was that all the talk about [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [480] No.
[481] No, that's the second part [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [482] We haven't done anything, have we? [giggle]
Anne (PS6RW) [483] [...] assignment.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [484] Yeah, you're right.
Anne (PS6RW) [485] We went through the situation and background, but I don't think we did that.
[486] Erm, when we were looking at all the markers like erm,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [487] gesture, gesture [...] and strategy, [...] this we need to this morning.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [488] [...] yes, and we'll come back to
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [489] Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [490] [...] ridiculous.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [491] So, for the rest of this morning, erm, we're going to [...] back on what you brought in.
[492] On [...] on conversational management.
[493] We were going to do that last week. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [494] But we didn't.
Anne (PS6RW) [495] [...] the work [...] to that.
[496] [...] [paper rustling] You, you just see what each other are doing, because I'm going to put you into lots of groups in a minute.
[497] I want, what I want you to do is get into groups of four in a minute, according to these instructions.
[498] Erm, groups of four, so we can use these pairs like this, so we can all talk to each other in a foursome.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [499] So we can move around.
Anne (PS6RW) [500] Erm, and I want to make sure that you've got, those four people have all done something different from here.
[501] Tell each other what you've done [...] different bits of the worksheet.
[502] So I'll just, have a look round to see if who, who's done what.
[503] Who did topic charts?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [504] So you need to be separated.
[505] Go to another group.
[506] Two, two did topic choice.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [507] I did some.
Anne (PS6RW) [508] And three.
[509] Make sure you're in different groups.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [510] Okay.
Anne (PS6RW) [511] Turn taking, turn distribution.
[512] Who did that?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [513] Me.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [514] One, two, three, so we separate yourself into different groups.
[515] Erm, speakers holding the floor and the next bit.
[516] One, who are you working with?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [517] Oh, Jo, she's not here, today.
Anne (PS6RW) [518] Right.
[519] So it doesn't matter where you go.
[520] [laugh] Erm, those turn, use turn [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [521] What did you two do?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [522] Erm, I was opening conversation [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [523] Opening and closing, yes, it's down here.
[524] So make sure, again, you split up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [525] Erm, what did she just say?
Anne (PS6RW) [526] What did you do?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [527] I did that, and you did what?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [528] [...] right, okay, we can stay together. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [everyone talking]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [529] I don't know, I might just about copy this out.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [530] [...] thing is, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [531] Can we have four groups.
[532] Get into four groups
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [533] [...] English [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [534] erm, round the tables [...] cos it's easier to talk.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [535] Different erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [536] Oh, you can come with us, if you want.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [537] No, I'll probably go into the next [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [538] Oops, bloody chair.
[539] [paper rustling] Hang on, what is it, what have we got to do now?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [540] Got to do this date.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [541] Today's the fifteenth.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [542] Yes.
Anne (PS6RW) [543] Has anyone, I don't think we've got anybody who's on this wrong assignment.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [544] No, we haven't.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [545] Wrong assignment.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [546] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [547] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [548] What we gotta do, just stick, discuss what we, our findings.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [549] Right erm, I'll break at, at about ten past, quarter past, so we've got about ten minutes [cough] or quarter of an hour.
[550] We're just exchanging what you've found in your groups.
[551] Erm, you haven't got everything represented there, but you've all got quite a lot, [cough] [...] quite a large chunk of them actually.
[552] So, make sure that you get from each other what [...] you've all got.
[553] The best way of organizing this for your file, is [...] file of reports.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [554] Yeah, [...] [laugh]
Anne (PS6RW) [555] You,ho you should ideally all have a [...] ouch, [laughing] a file like this [] and, before I pick this up, erm, the best way of organizing your files and just, just take separate bits of paper now, to save yourselves time, is to take separate pieces of paper for the separate topics, that separate people have done, and as you're talking to each other, begin making notes and adding to, to these different bits.
[556] So for example, topic choice, could be one bit of paper, and term taken erm, opening and closing, would be another

2 (Tape 130302)

Rebecca (PS586) [557] I suppose body language you, [...] couldn't yeah,
Inga (PS6RY) [558] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [559] sort of,
Inga (PS6RY) [560] [...] looking at their ...
Rebecca (PS586) [561] Yeah
Inga (PS6RY) [562] [...] terrible, terrible.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [563] It's my turn now.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [564] Mm.
[565] If you want.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [566] [...] I'm sorry, no.
[567] [laugh] Alright, erm, how do speakers talk
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [568] Talk.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [569] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [570] Erm, they give a complex number of cues, erm, when they are about to finish their conversation, erm, I ... how did they manage to [...] it's shown, it shown through the gaze of the speaker [...] erm, erm, the speaker coming to the end of long actions has been shown to gaze heavily at the listener.
[571] So, well, actually [...] so you know it's [...] .
[572] Doesn't make any sense, does it?
Rebecca (PS586) [573] Yeah. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [574] Erm, also inclination of head towards the listener [...] and erm ... erm, how did they feel that they'd finished the [...] erm, speaker's intonation and a drop in volume of voice [...] towards the end, and erm, also you've got quite a full [...] tags.
[575] Like, I speak something and, and I say, you know, so you know, you know what it means.
[576] [laugh] That indicates the person.
[577] Erm, and gestures as well, things like definite body movements, like [...] like I say something, then
Rebecca (PS586) [578] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [579] I point away to you ... you know that I've finished my conversation.
Rebecca (PS586) [580] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [581] Right, and, any terms at all, usually, about erm, [...] conversations with your friends, usually it's okay just to interrupt your friends.
[582] Erm, they're quite frequent in friendly conversations ... and, but in casual conversations, one of three things happen.
[583] Erm, current speaker will [...] next speaker by name, so when I speak to you and I call your name, you know that I am talking to you.
[584] It's the cue to the next person.
[585] Does it make any sense?
[586] Tell me if [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [587] Yeah. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [588] Erm, so ... but if the speaker doesn't announce the other one by name, the third one erm, realize, may react himself. [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [589] Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [590] So erm, if two or more do this at the same time, first person's to speak call the talk.
[591] Yes?
[592] So you ...
Rebecca (PS586) [593] [...] that one.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [594] So if two or more do this thing like, if they don't call your name, there at the same time, the first person to speak will be four.
Rebecca (PS586) [595] Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [596] Does it make sense?
Rebecca (PS586) [597] No. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [598] Right. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [everyone talking]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [599] [...] I think,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [600] Okay.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [601] Good.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [602] [...] I did, actually, [...] mine was the role of silence.
[603] [cough] Right, there's three different types of silence.
[604] Erm, the first one is called a lapse ... erm, and that happens when the person who's speaking, hasn't selected the next speaker, or nobody who's [...] self-selected.
[605] So, and the person who's speaking decides not to go on, so perhaps the conversation has stopped.
[606] Erm, the second sort is a gap which is a brief silence, usually sort of one second or less, between the end of one turn, and the next speaker actually starting to speak, so they're still thinking about what they're going to say.
[607] So that's a gap, then there's the third type is a pause, this is terribly complicated, erm, this is a silence within somebody's turn, so it could happen in one of three ways.
[608] Erm, either the person is erm, thinking of what to say, in search of the right words, so they have a pause within their turn and then carry on.
[609] Erm, or they stop, the current speaker stops thinking that somebody might want to join in, or the erm,spea current speaker chooses the next one, but the person they choose takes so long to actually respond, the current speaker carries on, because he thinks they're not going to say anything.
Rebecca (PS586) [610] Can we go over those again ... just the pause one.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [611] Erm, right, so a pause silence within a participant's turn, so the current speaker just has a pause, then carries on speaking,
Rebecca (PS586) [612] Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [613] so it can happen in one of three ways.
[614] Either they're thinking of what to say next ... or they stop, thinking that somebody else might want to join in, but they don't, so that the current speaker then carries on
Rebecca (PS586) [615] Mm. ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [616] or the speaker who's speaking, selects the next speaker by saying, didn't you think, or whatever, but the person they've chosen takes so long to answer, that the current speaker just carries on
Rebecca (PS586) [617] Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [618] cos they think they're not going to get a response ... I mean it, it, it can't get much er, can't get very much going on this.
[619] [everyone talking] A lot of these sort of inter-relate, don't they, really, I mean ...
Rebecca (PS586) [620] [...] just the sake of [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [621] Just say something every now and again, don't they? ...
Rebecca (PS586) [622] Oh dear.
[623] [yawn] How did you get in this morning, did you walk?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [624] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [625] Yeah, nice day, innit it, bloody cold out there, though.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [626] Yeah, innit.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [627] Nice bright morning, though,
Rebecca (PS586) [628] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [629] Least it's not raining.
Rebecca (PS586) [630] That's true.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [631] I don't think [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [632] Where do you live?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [633] Do you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [634] Are you in trouble every day [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [635] Blimey
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [636] Commutes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [637] Oh no.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [638] It's alright, actually, the worst it takes me is about an hour.
[639] When it's really busy, but ...
Rebecca (PS586) [640] Is that from home?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [641] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [642] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [643] Yeah, erm, this morning, [...] yeah.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [646] [...] till half eight.
Rebecca (PS586) [647] I think you should.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [648] Bound to [...] isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [649] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [650] But I don't know [...] think it would be easier?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [everyone talking]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [651] Oh yeah [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [652] The thing is that you know [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [653] Yeah, I just, I just [...]

[659] It's a different [...] it's just that Sunday's free for me.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [691] You have to the get mattress out urgh, it's awful.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [692] [...] on the beds.

Rebecca (PS586) [695] Yeah, and I believe it.
[696] I believe it. [laugh]

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [699] Oh, it was you, was it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [700] And erm, [...] you just got to be, you know a mum would, a mum and that [...]

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [everyone talking]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [702] [...] yeah well, Essex, probably Essex University, Anne goes to [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [703] I think it pays a bit better.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [704] I've done it even though
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [705] Have you?
[706] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [707] [...] worked out what I am saying [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [708] Oh. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [709] I still [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [710] Thank God I'm not [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [711] What?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [712] You alright?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [713] Fine, thank you.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [714] Ah [...] scratch [...] last night.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [715] Ah [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [716] [...] little man.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [717] Oh, you did?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [718] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [719] He goes [...] I can't believe [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [720] And erm, clothes in general?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [721] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [722] So you try to [...] go to visit him, or him come over here?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [723] Yeah. [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [724] Tell him [...] that could be good.
Anne (PS6RW) [725] Right.
[726] [...] try it again and ... I want to do two things for the rest of the morning.
[727] Two separate things, so see whether we can ... work fast.
[728] First of all, this feedback, on what you were doing before coffee, and secondly ... talk about some of those markers and the speakers that been brought to my attention [...] talked about with the other group, but not you.
[729] [laugh] This, the sheet on conversation rules.
[730] There's relatively few rules feeling that, types erm, belong to each other.
[731] I think the best thing in a way, is not to repeat what you've already said to each other.
[732] But to bring out questions, things that you felt in your groups that you would like to perhaps ask the others about, or came back and ask me, any particular points that you [...] to read on or weren't clear when you were talking in a group, or things that you felt the others might ... you know, [...] to talk about.
[733] Let's just run through it, erm, on topic choice.
[734] Do you all feel in your separate groups, that erm, you've covered that?
Rebecca (PS586) [735] Yes. [cough]
Anne (PS6RW) [736] You've talking about it [cough] [...] choosing a, choosing a topic and changing topics. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [737] You couldn't have got [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [738] Anything that's, anything that came up that was, that you felt you wanted to tell the others about?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [739] No, not really.
Anne (PS6RW) [740] Choosing and changing topics are, are going to appear, I'm, I'm saying rightly, that it's going to be at first hard.
Rebecca (PS586) [741] Mm.
Anne (PS6RW) [742] In an extreme situation, we've got something like an in situ situation so the interviewer will have much more power, and has the total rights to change the topic and choose the topic, and cut off the topic when it's finished.
[743] So that's an example that gives us very much asymmetrical different amounts apart, and then you get the other end of the, the, the other extreme, you got to select, you know, you got to [...] your power, your friendship group, and so when got to do, to choose whichever [...] amongst friends.
[744] Would you agree with that?
[745] I'm changing, [...] on the right hand side there ...

4 (Tape 130304)

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [746] Erm, right, Okay!
[747] Er, [...] thinking about ...

Kitty (PS6RX) [752] No, but we have got a telephone, and you're more than welcome to use it.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [756] No.

Kitty (PS6RX) [758] That's alright.
[759] You can ring your parents. [clears throat]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Kitty (PS6RX) [760] We'll all be in the kitchen, so [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [761] Are you recording this now?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [762] [...] I don't think that [...]

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [778] You're not allowed [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [779] I'm gonna have to scrub all this bit, now.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [780] You could use it.
[781] It'll give you something to talk about.
Kitty (PS6RX) [782] I didn't hear, I didn't hear you saying you were putting tape recorder on. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [783] I'll tell you afterwards, you see, and then I'll ask you whether you, anyone's got any objections, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [784] Erm, well, actual cardinal board of sinners, you've really scored the lot.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [785] Just in case for some reason they'll correlate, it doesn't matter.
Kitty (PS6RX) [786] There's that girl that you think I fancy again, just moving down there.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [787] Ah, moving, oh where, where?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [788] What does she look like?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [789] Legs up to her armpits.
Kitty (PS6RX) [790] No, you I used to know her from church in Oxford, before she moved down here.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [791] What I keep saying, we must, we must get to know her better.
[792] We mustn't ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [793] [laugh] I know, think you're going to
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [794] Yes, darling, right, yeah.
Kitty (PS6RX) [795] No, I'm just being friendly, cos when we moved into the church, people invited us around a lot, and it was really nice.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [796] Yeah.
Kitty (PS6RX) [797] And ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [798] Well, yeah.
Kitty (PS6RX) [799] and ...

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1240] A matter of weeks.
Rebecca (PS586) [1241] Yes, it's not for a quarter, it's only for, you know, whatever.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1242] Probably be, the next bill you get will probably be bumped up a bit, because you've had the heating on, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1243] Right, yeah.

Rebecca (PS586) [1866] Got a shower in, and when you were sixteen you don't know what you are [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1867] Yes, get on with today, I need my breakfast.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1868] Make people accept you, but when you are a bit older
Rebecca (PS586) [1869] [...] when you think of changing, don't you,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1870] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1871] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [1872] and then you suddenly realize when you're nineteen ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1873] You are who you are.
Rebecca (PS586) [1874] and it's, if you have a face pack, it's not going make you look like Audrey Hepburn anyway.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1875] So might as well forget it.
Rebecca (PS586) [1876] And just you know, it's ridiculous.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1877] Oh, isn't it, oh, sorry [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1878] Oh dear, we'll have to do something about this.
Rebecca (PS586) [1879] And even if you lose two and a half stone, you're still not gonna look like, you know, some skinny model because you're still gonna be about six foot wide with your hips and your shoulders, but I mean, you're just gonna have gangly longer legs and walk around like this.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1880] And be really unhappy because you've got [...] on.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1881] Yeah, exactly.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1882] Very depressing isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1883] And you can't exercise, because you've never got any energy.
[1884] [laughing] Can't get out of bed [] .
None (KPVPS000) [1885] My guess is [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1886] I think the answer is work an hour a day
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1887] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [1888] Yeah, for ten thousand pounds an hour or so.
None (KPVPS000) [1889] And then they can hire a personal physician, or whatever they are
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1890] To suck it all out.
None (KPVPS000) [1891] to erm, yes, to suck it all out, [...] it up, or
Rebecca (PS586) [1892] Grow up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1893] Cellulite removal.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1894] Train them or something.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1895] They see it all, anyway. [...] [clears throat]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1896] [...] is well over six foot tall,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1897] Oh, here's this photograph with, of erm, Naomi Campbell's bottom in it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1898] She hasn't got a bottom.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1899] I'm surprised, [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1900] Naomi Campbell's a pain in the a
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1901] Yeah, but a lot of people [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1902] [...] in trouble, isn't she?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1903] Didn't she get kicked out by her [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1904] Yeah, well, she said she, she told them where to go, and they said they [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1905] Told her where to go.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1906] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1907] She's writing up, she's writing her erm, autobiography now.
None (KPVPS000) [1908] It's already out.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1909] Oh, is it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [1910] In that erm, in that mermaid outfit, and earning some ridiculous amount of money for an hour, while other models went up and down a catwalk for a tenth of the money, or something.
[1911] Do you remember, did you see that thingy?
None (KPVPS000) [1912] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [1913] Sat in that stripy, mermaid thing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1914] [...] you the other gest the other plate
Rebecca (PS586) [1915] Stupid, I don't see how anybody can earn, to afford that, you know, to accept that amount of money.
[1916] With all, with the world the way it is.
[1917] It's disgusting.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1918] That's what we were saying today, weren't we, yeah. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1919] [...] oh well, I support this charity [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [1920] Cos they do actually er deserve all the money they get.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1921] Is this Cindy Crawford?
[1922] Supports erm dodgy challenger.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1923] They all support something.
None (KPVPS000) [1924] Yeah, they all tend to be environmentally friendly, it's quite sick.
Rebecca (PS586) [1925] In Papua New Guinea or something.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1926] [...] their parents, but it's like when they're modelling in their bikini and they have to go, oh, I love the environment and erm, I support this charity, thank you very much, and I love world, and that's it.
[1927] They just go backwards, and they er
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1928] Yeah, yeah, I love you all, right.
None (KPVPS000) [1929] They're not particularly
Rebecca (PS586) [1930] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [1931] interested in the charity they support.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1932] It's a bit like Miss World, innit, and they never [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1933] They're, they're, they are not really there for their charitable concerns.
Rebecca (PS586) [1934] No.
[1935] They're just out to get the money, aren't they?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1936] They look wonderful in their bikini.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1937] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1938] And they like going on holiday [...] oh and a pretty tiara.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1939] And I like a man with lots of muscles and [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1940] And they're the ones with yachts [...] [music]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1941] Get off me, [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1942] That girl, erm, is it Kate Moss isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1943] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [1944] Looks like new, girl.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1945] We're waiting for a model.
None (KPVPS000) [1946] She's just like a french stick, isn't she?
Anne (PS6RW) [1947] Who is this?
None (KPVPS000) [1948] Kate Moss, she's a New Zealand girl.
Anne (PS6RW) [1949] I wouldn't mind looking like that now.
[1950] I must admit.
None (KPVPS000) [1951] Oh, come on.
Anne (PS6RW) [1952] Er, she's horrible.
[1953] She's so ugly, Claire.
None (KPVPS000) [1954] Absolutely repulsive to look at.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1955] Naomi Campbell.
[1956] No, erm Kate Moss.
Anne (PS6RW) [1957] Kate Moss.
None (KPVPS000) [1958] Really, she's a [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1959] She's not [...] ten year old, is she?
Anne (PS6RW) [1960] Yeah,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1961] Yeah [...] supposed to look like that.
Rebecca (PS586) [1962] I think she looks nice really, because she does look very young, she's only about turned sixteen, isn't she?
None (KPVPS000) [1963] She does look like a girl rather than a woman
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1964] Yeah.
[1965] She's really young.
[1966] She's got all these men leering over her, I just think it's really perverse.
Rebecca (PS586) [1967] But in a way then, they shouldn't, they shouldn't make such a big thing about all these skinny models, then, because, like, if you look at all these magazines and stuff, all these basically beautiful women are all like, you know, very, very thin, very very tall.
None (KPVPS000) [1968] Yeah.
[1969] That's what they seem to be going towards now, aren't they?
Rebecca (PS586) [1970] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [1971] For the blokes as well
Rebecca (PS586) [1972] And if you don't fit into that category, you're just not accepted, and you're just like, ugly.
[1973] [laugh] and so everyone like, wishes they would look like that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1974] It's really bad.
Rebecca (PS586) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1975] It starts really young, with erm, toys like Barbie Doll, who's incredibly thin, and I think that's just disgusting.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1976] It's coming out beautiful and [...] me then.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1977] All the men are like Kens,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1978] But it's just so sexual as well, you know, for children from four upwards, I just think it's really bad.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1979] How far [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1980] [laughing] No, that's true []
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1981] And, look at Ken, I mean, he hasn't even got any genitals. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1982] Yeah, I mean he's [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1983] [...] Ken though [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1984] No, I had an Action Man, because I got, I inherited my brother's [...] and his eyes went ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1985] It was, it was for the
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1986] and his arms went like this ... and his [...] aargh [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1987] And he had his scars.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1988] and he had his scars like this, and his ankle went like that, and his arms went like that, and [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1989] He had a funny knee [...] as well
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1990] He had a very pert bottom, though, didn't he?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1991] Yes, he had a [...] and they all liked Simon, and [...] note the hair, the role model, obviously
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1992] [...] hairs all over them, sort of asexual, they're not really any sex [...]
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1993] Yeah, exactly, and erm, you know [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1994] [...] quite a good idea, like free, if you had to erm, speak to a teddy bear [...]
None (KPVPS000) [1995] Yeah, that's a [...] .
[1996] Coloured
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1997] Exactly,
None (KPVPS000) [1998] man or whatever.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [1999] Exactly, I mean I [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2000] [...] teddy bear.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2001] Oh my life.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2002] So I put teddy in the first [...]
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2003] He's twice the size.
None (KPVPS000) [2004] Which is a good thing, innit?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2005] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2006] It's just stupid.
None (KPVPS000) [2007] I didn't realize I was multi-racial [...] side of it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2008] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2009] I don't know whether that, I mean surely that's what they mean, so
None (KPVPS000) [2010] Yeah, I hope so.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2011] Yeah. [music]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2012] When even such as, you know, not necessarily black people find it, say black kid and black dog.
None (KPVPS000) [2013] Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2014] But you know, [...] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2015] I just think [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2016] Sorry, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2017] I was just going to say, I was just saying, that I saw the posters that erm parents and carers should erm, go along to talk about parenting [...] and at the bottom it said, erm, will be selling multi-racial toys and dolls and things like that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2018] Do we need the [...] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2019] [...] people like, mm, I'm not scared.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2020] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [2021] Yes, you do.
Rebecca (PS586) [2022] I mean, when I, when I was a kid I got, erm, I was given an Australian doll baby, and which was funny cos it had an amazing sun tan and dark blue eyes and blonde hair, like typical Ozzie child.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2023] Really? [laugh]
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2024] Yeah, great, that's really great.
None (KPVPS000) [2025] Dazzling white teeth.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2026] And, presumably you had an Aborigine [...] I don't know, it's very odd.
[2027] But I think we should, [music ends] it's like today, where was I, Battersea area, I think and it's the first shop I'd seen that actually had Chinese model manikins in the window, I thought they were sw pretty unusual.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2028] Oh, really?
None (KPVPS000) [2029] There's a big Chinese er department store opened up, wasn't there?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2030] There is one in London, just off erm, Leicester Square ... as well.
[2031] There's like only Chinese and Japanese people in the shop.
[2032] We walked in, and we felt like going, sorry, as if we were like disturbing something.
[2033] We walked out again.
[2034] It was really weird.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2035] Is that that [...] one?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2036] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2037] Is it erm, a hall, is it a precinct?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2038] Yeah.
[2039] It's like a precinct, it sells loads of bags and scarves and purses and all sorts of other things, and you go through the shop, like and that's the first thing you see.
[2040] It's really strange. [sniff]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2041] [...] it's just odd, isn't it, you just don't realize how
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2042] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2043] racist, our country is
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2044] Yeah,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2045] You don't think about having black dolls,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2046] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2047] My mum, my mum was saying that erm, at Maria's playgroup, they were erm, they got, they got a ticking off, because of, they said to them you know you really should be introducing black dolls to the children, which is fair enough, but they also [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2048] Try that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2049] Thank you, that's lovely, that's great.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2050] which I thought was a bit over the top, they said that, you know, where you have [...] pretend foods, you should really have like [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2051] Oh, no.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2052] Yes.
[2053] And ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2054] That's not English food, I'm sorry.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2055] No, yeah, I know, you know to cater for the
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2056] That is, that is different, that is
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2057] [...] ethnic origins, yeah, I thought that was a bit over the top.
[2058] Well, my mum said it was a bit pathetic, you know, it's almost like, you know, erm, the [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2059] And who's gonna sell a fake [...] , I'm sorry. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2060] What is it mummy?
[2061] It's a chapatti.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2062] Do you want them to play with like whatever money comes from those countries, you know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2063] Yeah.
[2064] But it's honestly, erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2065] No, I'm sorry, we've got to play with rupees. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2066] Rupees today, girls, and boys, sorry.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2067] But then if you, if you
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2068] Sorry [...]

[2071] How sort of, seven out of ten of the shops for clothes are just selling the saris
None (KPVPS000) [2072] To me
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2073] [...] the women's, and like,
None (KPVPS000) [2074] Mm.
[2075] Mm.
Kitty (PS6RX) [2076] It starts in Bradford.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2077] You're in an English country and how many of the actual English people will go out and buy a sari.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2078] I just think it, I just think it's so sad, like in London, it has so many cultures, and like, wow, it's really good for the cultures to mix, but it doesn't work,
None (KPVPS000) [2079] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2080] because you have the Turkish in one, you have the
None (KPVPS000) [2081] Yep.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2082] Jews in another, and then the blacks, and you just think what a shame, if they all mix and you feel like, when I was in erm, working in North London, you had the Turkish and the Jewish people
None (KPVPS000) [2083] Golders Green.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2084] And then you had yuppies, but nobody mixed, and the feeling, if you went down to the Turkish [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2085] In Golders Green.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2086] No, this was near erm, Stoke Newington,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2087] Oh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2088] Islington area, [...] and you felt really unsafe, and I just felt how awful.
[2089] You know, here was a chance to er,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2090] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2091] mingle, learn so much, and you don't.
[2092] I thought it was a shame ...
None (KPVPS000) [2093] There's some coffee and some cheese and biscuits.
Rebecca (PS586) [2094] And there's more wine as well.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2095] Oh my God.
Rebecca (PS586) [2096] If you'd like cheese and biscuits with wine.
Kitty (PS6RX) [2097] Wine and cheese and biscuits and coffee.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [2098] The coffee's in a flask, so it won't go cold.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2099] Oh, gosh, that's posh
Kitty (PS6RX) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2100] Can I serve any more coffee?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2101] There's chocolates as well.
[2102] Don't need to [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2103] Thank you. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2104] [...] George bought them and you're meant to save them, and savour them tomorrow.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2105] Yeah, we go out, after we're gone and you can't be bothered to eat.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2106] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [2107] We had somebody round for dinner on Thursday and bought us a box of After Eight Mints and I think they lasted five minutes [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2108] Really?
Rebecca (PS586) [2109] I stayed up all night,
None (KPVPS000) [2110] Do you want some milk?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2111] Did you watch the film?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2112] studying.
[2113] So I ate them as well.
Rebecca (PS586) [2114] What do you do then,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2115] No, thank you.
Rebecca (PS586) [2116] I opened a bottle of wine, I know this is a very strange question, but when somebody brings a bottle of wine, do you open that first, or do you open [...] ?
[2117] Somebody once said to me they think it's really rude if they didn't bring wine to a, to a dinner party and then they don't have to have to drink it.
[2118] Somebody else said, well no, if you don't open the bottle of wine immediately [...] it looks like [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2119] I said this.
None (KPVPS000) [2120] [...] accept it
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2121] Yeah, cos you brought a bottle round here, when [...] really weird.
None (KPVPS000) [2122] I think it depends.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2123] Depends on how well you know them, I suppose.
None (KPVPS000) [2124] I think it depends, if, if it's red, whether you've got time to let it breathe properly, and if it's white whether it's got time to, to be chilled properly.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2125] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2126] What if it's really [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2127] Charlotte.
None (KPVPS001) [2128] like a really cold bottle of white wine, would you.
[2129] You haven't opened a bottle of wine, you've got one there, and I've brought in a bottle of wine.
[2130] Would you think, I have to open Charlotte's first, because they brought it,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2131] If you brought a bottle of white and I got a bottle of white ready, if I hadn't opened it, I'd open yours.
None (KPVPS001) [2132] Would you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2133] Yes, I would.
[2134] If it was nice and cold or I'd put it in the freezer, then open the other one.
[2135] But
None (KPVPS000) [2136] Well actually, we put ours in the fridge before we ...
Kitty (PS6RX) [2137] I, I think with four of you, you're gonna get through two bottles anyway, so it doesn't matter which one.
Rebecca (PS586) [2138] [...] like the other day, Charlotte, you brought
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2139] you brought, did you bring white, you brought a bottle with you anyway.
None (KPVPS001) [2140] Did I?
Rebecca (PS586) [2141] I'm sure.
None (KPVPS001) [2142] When I came round for coffee.
[2143] No.
[2144] When you came round [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2145] No, when you and Ben, I think it was when erm,
None (KPVPS001) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2146] yeah, I think so, and you brought a bottle anyway.
None (KPVPS001) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2147] I'm sure it was you who brought it, and we didn't open it because we were eating, we wanted to have the opposite colour to what you brought, [...] that what you ...
None (KPVPS001) [2148] [...] very much, yeah anyway, yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2149] so we didn't open yours, and when you left, I thought oh no, they're gonna think we're really rude, because we still got their bottle of wine, and we didn't drink it.
None (KPVPS001) [2150] No, I didn't think that, you see I don't worry about that.
Rebecca (PS586) [2151] Oh, that's good.
None (KPVPS001) [2152] We had somebody over for dinner, didn't we and they actually brought a bottle of wine, and we said oh yeah, well, cos we know him quite well, we said oh what shall we have?
[2153] Do you remember.
[2154] And he said, oh what kind of wine have you got?
[2155] And we said something really really cheap and he said, oh what, I think we'll start with mine, then.
Rebecca (PS586) [2156] Oh really?
Inga (PS6RY) [2157] Oh, Richard, Richard
None (KPVPS001) [2158] Yeah we were really embarrassed, he said, because I'm not keen on erm,
Inga (PS6RY) [2159] I hate that [...] I must say.
None (KPVPS001) [2160] ours is really cheap is it Aust is it Australian or Bulgarian or something.
[2161] It was quite cheap, though, and he said, erm, I think we'll start with mine, because I always find Bulgarian a little bit acidic, and we'd bought this bottle, and we both went out to the kitchen and both said gosh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2162] That's really rude.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2163] That's awful.
Inga (PS6RY) [2164] Yeah.
None (KPVPS001) [2165] And, he was really rude about it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2166] The best thing to do, is like, they bring what sort of wine,yo they want, and then put some in the fridge and then just say, look do you want dry or sweet.
Rebecca (PS586) [2167] I'm sorry, does, does anyone want sugar?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2168] Yeah, that's it, they wont taste the difference anyway.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2169] Er
Rebecca (PS586) [2170] Does anyone take sugar?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2171] No thank you.
None (KPVPS001) [2172] But that was really embarrassing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2173] We went to some friend's house, erm, and I,th this was ages ago, I'd erm, done some wedding ...
None (KPVPS000) [2174] Claire, it's not too strong, is it?
Anne (PS6RW) [2175] No, it's really nice.
None (KPVPS000) [2176] [...] put some more water with it.
Anne (PS6RW) [2177] I like it really strong.
None (KPVPS000) [2178] Mm.
Anne (PS6RW) [2179] I don't like [...]
None (KPVPS001) [2180] I'd done some wedding stationery for a friend, and I'd painted two hundred and twenty pieces, er erm, sheets of wedding stationery for her, with erm, bud roses and things, I think I might have shown you one, actually.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2181] Mm.
None (KPVPS001) [2182] Did I show you that?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2183] I saw them, yeah.
None (KPVPS001) [2184] And erm ... at their wedding reception, they gave us erm, a trad [...] local bottle of wine from the bar, erm, she got married in a bar and they, apparently they've got vineyards there.
[2185] Anyway, so they gave us a bottle of wine.
[2186] We took it round to a friend's, didn't we?
[2187] For a meal, and like, we were really keen to try this and everything, and we, we didn't, we sort of kept saying, oh shall we open this bottle tonight, and they said no, we'll save it for a special occasion.
[2188] So we thought, go see these friends, haven't seen them for ages, we'll take it with us, and they didn't open it, and we were really upset, because we, it was a present [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS001) [2189] [...] wanted to enjoy it and we wanted to share it with our friends.
None (KPVPS000) [2190] Share it with our friends, yeah.
None (KPVPS001) [2191] So we went in the door, and just sort of said, yeah we had, we'd kept it ages hadn't we?
[2192] And we said erm, we said, oh, we've brought this bottle, to er, because erm, and we explained, like whatever,
Inga (PS6RY) [2193] Mm.
None (KPVPS001) [2194] I mean, to open it, they, they just sort of didn't twig, but like, they're the sort of people that [...] wine, cos [laughing] Mark's [] got a really bad influence on these people, he gets them ... he gets everybody really drunk.
Inga (PS6RY) [2195] Everybody that comes into his house, sort of wobbl sort of wobbles out of the door.
None (KPVPS001) [2196] He's never short of wine.
[2197] He's never ever short of any [...] at all.
Inga (PS6RY) [2198] He just keeps topping your glass up all the time, it's quite naughty, really.
None (KPVPS000) [2199] Like your dad. [laugh]
Inga (PS6RY) [2200] [...] Charlotte's place isn't it?
[2201] Alan's [...] pouring the wine out all the time, yeah, you can't keep away from it, yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [2202] Nick's dad's like that.
Rebecca (PS586) [2203] My dad's awful.
None (KPVPS000) [2204] He erm, he bought a wine box in, when they were in France.
Rebecca (PS586) [2205] Oh that was awful, that was.
None (KPVPS000) [2206] And it was, it was really cheap, I mean, it was a sort of a rose and I think the whole box only cost him, one pound fifty, or something, you could probably run your car off it.
[2207] [laugh] But erm, but he just kept filling our glasses up all the time, didn't he?
[2208] I think that between me and him, we got through the, nearly the whole wine box.
[2209] And erm,
Rebecca (PS586) [2210] Dad offers the wine [...] I mean, you don't notice, because he's like hovering around you so often,
None (KPVPS000) [2211] Yeah, he sort of sneaks, sneaks round everybody when they're looking the other way.
[2212] And after about seven glasses [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [2213] I think he [...] from driving, I just, I just don't like, [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2214] I got [...] absolutely [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2215] dad was driving, and he was like when he can't [...] calm down, because my mum gets all like raged [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2216] What do you [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2217] so he could've, then he doesn't, he doesn't manage give them any more.
None (KPVPS000) [2218] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2219] Instead of buying us a present, from erm, my mum bought me a few bits and pieces when they went to France.
[2220] My dad got Phil a big case of beers. [laugh]
None (KPVPS000) [2221] That was [...] wasn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2222] Oh, yes, yes, yes.
None (KPVPS000) [2223] That's great.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2224] It was brilliant.
[2225] That's a very good idea, actually.
Rebecca (PS586) [2226] We decided, some of our friends from church we were going [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2227] [...] down here.
Rebecca (PS586) [2228] and car, get the ferry over, and erm, just erm, [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2229] So we said to take Charlotte [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2230] oh no, we did didn't we?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2231] It's possible.
[2232] What are you gonna do about that?
None (KPVPS000) [2233] Well, I keep waiting for one of these free offers to come in the newspaper.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2234] Where you go for a pound.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2235] The Telegraph.
None (KPVPS000) [2236] Yeah, yeah.
[2237] Is it the Telegraph?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2238] That's in the Telegraph.
Rebecca (PS586) [2239] Oh it's the Sun as well, they do it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2240] Really?
Rebecca (PS586) [2241] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [2242] I don't care what newspaper it is, I'll buy it. [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [2243] You have to buy seven yoghurts so then you can take your car [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2244] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2245] Mm.
[2246] It's good, though.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2247] I know that's good because we were all gonna go, cos I'm doing a French course last year at college, and we were going over with that one pound, you know each, with a car load offer.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2248] Who was that, they did erm, a trip to Holland for the last year, didn't they?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2249] Yeah, that was quite good.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2250] Yeah
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2251] Well, I, I wanna go skiing as well, so you get more than a day trip.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2252] You guys [...] [music]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2253] I think you'll be going on your own, Phil.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2254] You been before, [...] skiing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2255] Yeah, I've been lots of times.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2256] Did you enjoy it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2257] Yeah, I did.
[2258] Yeah, I like it a lot.
None (KPVPS000) [2259] I wake up and I, I think about it all day long.
Rebecca (PS586) [2260] I just, I just have got to the stage now where I've been er, I can't remember it's five or six times, and I think, I'm not going to get any better.
None (KPVPS000) [2261] Yes, you are.
Rebecca (PS586) [2262] I'm not.
[2263] It's ridiculous to say I am gonna get, like I [...] as far as like, grace [...] absolutely ludicrous.
[2264] I would never ever ever look graceful coming down the slope.
None (KPVPS000) [2265] Yes, you will.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2266] Do you like going to dry ski slopes for lessons?
Rebecca (PS586) [2267] I think, no, I mean been, I always had lessons every time I've been.
[2268] I mean, it's not, it's not
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2269] For the weak at heart [...] actually go, then I [...] when you got there [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2270] No, that's true.
[2271] Well, I think the thing for me is I don't feel like I have to look brilliant, I just like to have a good time.
[2272] That's fair enough, but I just, I don't know, I'm just feeling like I wanna go and visit places, I don't want to be stuck in the snow.
[2273] Cos, I have never never
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2274] I used to be like that.
Rebecca (PS586) [2275] been on hol holidays.
[2276] I've always been skiing with my parents, so I've been to America to visit friends, and that's not been like sightseeing, or something, and I just haven't been anywhere, and erm, I mean, I suppose I've been to a lot more countries than a lot of people who've, you know, there's a lot of people who haven't ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2277] [...] did you say you haven't been abroad much?
[2278] Did you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2279] I haven't.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2280] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2281] I haven't been abroad much.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2282] No, right.
[2283] That's alright.
None (KPVPS000) [2284] I've been skiing [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2285] I know a lot of people you meet, and they just say, oh no, I've never been abroad.
[2286] But I'm, I can't say I've not been abroad.
[2287] I've been to lots of places, but I've never really been to visit countries and experience countries and, except for France, perhaps.
[2288] I've been to Germany and Austria skiing, I've been to, er we went to Italy but I was, you know, I was quite a bit younger and it wasn't for very long.
[2289] So I've been to Rome and places like that.
[2290] The sights.
[2291] You know, I've been to the sights, but I just feel like I want to go travelling, I don't want to go skiing again. [laugh]
None (KPVPS000) [2292] No.
[2293] I'd say, you might be on your own there. [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [2294] I mean, I do, I'd love it, if we went, I mean, I'd really enjoy myself, and have a really great laugh, cos that's what [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2295] You would, you would, you liar. [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [2296] but, but, to me going, going skiing is just I mean like, it doesn't ... there's nothing different each time we go.
[2297] You can have a good laugh with different people
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2298] I think when you go skiing, you must go with a with a group of erm, group of people.
None (KPVPS000) [2299] Yeah, but you don't you don't need anything different though, once you get up in that mountain environment, you got this bright sunny morning ...
Rebecca (PS586) [2300] Yes, but you could go anywhere in the world, skiing, and it will still
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2301] be exactly the same, whereas if you go visiting different parts of Europe and the world, you always have different experiences.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2302] Yeah, you could pop up to Scotland for a few days.
None (KPVPS000) [2303] Blooming cold skiing in Scotland though, isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2304] They won't even walk down the road [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2305] When, when you're skiing in the Alps, [...] it's so hot,
Rebecca (PS586) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2306] and you get, get such a lovely suntan.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2307] That's what we want. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2308] Have you been, Julienne?
Kitty (PS6RX) [2309] Yeah, there was a sunbed round the corner probably.
None (KPVPS000) [2310] [...] March, he was, sort of, really brown.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2311] [...] in their school trips.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2312] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2313] When was that?
None (KPVPS000) [2314] Why isn't, I just love being in the mountains, I mean, it's just, I daydream about it so much [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2315] We went to erm, [...] somewhere in France,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2316] To do skiing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2317] Yeah, with the college [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2318] I love going
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2319] I know, ah
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2320] to the mountains to climb and walk
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2321] Yeah.
[2322] And that sort of thing, because then you're really achieving something and you see different places and you go different places.
[2323] Whereas, I don't know, I think just [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2324] [...] going up and down the same place every day [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2325] [...] brilliant fun, I'm not saying it's not,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2326] You wanna go on a summer trip to Austria.
Rebecca (PS586) [2327] If someone said, you could go sk skiing free for the rest of your life, I'd go.
[2328] I'd just think, absolutely excellent you have a really great laugh, but just wanna do [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2329] Also skiing's bloody expensive, isn't it?
Rebecca (PS586) [2330] Yes, exactly.
None (KPVPS000) [2331] Well, I mean, if we, if we did it with the free ferry, and there's a possibility we might be able to get fairly cheap accommodation if we drove over there and stayed.
[2332] Really all we'd have to pay for is the fuel and the lift pass.
[2333] So you can have a week's holiday for ...
Rebecca (PS586) [2334] Have you got the kit?
None (KPVPS000) [2335] Well, I've got boots.
[2336] I haven't got skis, though.
[2337] You can hire them.
Rebecca (PS586) [2338] You could borrow my dad's, though.
None (KPVPS000) [2339] Yeah, they [...] as much as hire.
Rebecca (PS586) [2340] You only have to rebind 'em.
[2341] Doesn't make any difference [...] , and I could borrow my mum's.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2342] There is a big difference, though [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2343] You've been skiing before?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2344] Yeah, we, I skied in Cyprus.
[2345] Because, you know, I'd never been skiing before, so I went out all togged up, with like, my tights sort of, like, you know, thermal tights and you know, pair of track suits, sort of bottoms, plus plastic overtop and then I had like, sort of thermal top on, plus the [...] that's a sort of like, T-shirt, plus the polo-neck plus a jumper, plus a sort of like erm, a sort of sheepskin waistcoat and, and jacket and then this plastic thing over the top. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2346] [...] about fifteen pounds.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2347] I was up going on the ski slope, and this is like, I've been up a couple of times before, but it had been really cold and bi and I went at Easter, I was so like hot, but it's still really good snow, and we went up there and I just couldn't believe it, I just went dad, erm, oh, I don't feel too good, and he just went, don't be so stupid, and Nathan and I collapsed, I was at the front of this queue waiting for the ski lift and the whole queue just went [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2348] And this bloke comes up to me and goes, hi, I'm a ski instructor, I was just like hmm [laugh] like, takes all my clothes off.
[2349] [laugh] Yeah, great.
[2350] But then, it's a big difference between skiing abroad and you know, like staying somewhere like Cyprus skiing in Scotland, it's true, but I mean, it's like the first, I mean, my dad's typical, sort of, get to the top of the hill and give you a good shove, you know, give you one time to go down a bit slowly and then after that you just get to the top [...] ski downhill phhhh.
[2351] [laugh] And you don't really learn that much because it's just a matter of get to the top, and put your skis facing down, and
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2352] Survival course.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2353] survival course down and try not to take any trees.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2354] I've managed to erm, the first time we went skiing is when we lived in the States, we went to [...] like, er, not dry ski slopes there, but it was like false snow, that's the same as you ... erm, [laugh] they were really, was like eleven years ago, sort of like, technology hadn't quite advanced terribly much, you know, and these bindings, you had like, metal clips on the bottom of your boots, and you had to put the thing in and clip the boot, clip the thing round on the skis, to keep your boot on the ski, right, it wasn't like toe clips where you shove your foot,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2355] I know, yeah
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2356] and put your heel down and it clips up the back, it was like
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2357] Yeah
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2358] clamp from the middle, and erm, [laughing] I used to carry like down the thing and I just got really out of control, went all over the place, like skis up in the air [] and one of them came off and the thing, actually, ripped off er, bottom of my boot.
[2359] Like this metal plate in the skis
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2360] Oh, I see.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2361] I couldn't go anywhere.
[2362] I only had one ski, and I couldn't walk down.
[2363] So when my dad had to ski all the way down to the bottom, while I'm sitting on the side of this bloody slide.
[2364] [laugh] I was practically up at the top as well, I was really pissed off, just sitting there for like, for two hours, whilst my dad went all the way down to the bottom of this thing.
[2365] Got this man to come up with his screwdrivers and his this, that and the other.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2366] His glue, to stick the sole back one. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2367] I tell you though, if you're gonna hurt yourself skiing, you can really hurt yourself.
[2368] Because, I've, I've been in it, and I was like in these like, really tight ski pants, they're like a pair of like, [...] like really badly, like sprained your legs.
[2369] And I went over, and I like, I went, my skis stayed on, and I like somersaulted over and my skis stayed on and I pulled the whole of my leg, it was black from just above my knee to there and it's like just black my whole leg.
[2370] But because I was in like really really tight tights, er like and then a pair of ski pants over the top er, my whole leg was like, you know, sort of soaked in [...] and this bloke was there going, hee, that's pretty impressive and I was like, I'm not going to let him know I was crying [laughing] and like got up and went to the top of the slope [] and I carried on skiing for about an extra half an hour, but like when I got home, and I just took off, my whole leg started, feet swelling as I took the like, the tight like leggings off.
[2371] I was just like aargh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2372] It is really a dangerous sport though, isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2373] It is, it is dang and people don't realize how, they're like oh the snow's soft, but [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2374] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2375] [...] if anything they're like a spray snow.
[2376] So many people [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2377] And the longer you get skiing really really piss me off, because it's the famous drink driver, it really is, I'm sorry, drink [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2378] [laughing] They should have big learners on the back as well
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2379] Honestly, it really is, is too dangerous.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2380] Ski plates, neeow, neeow, neeow.
None (KPVPS000) [2381] When you, when you stop, at lunch lunchtimes, in the restaurant you get this big hot steaming mug of [...] mulled wine
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2382] and it's just so moreish, isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2383] Yeah, but a lot of that, a lot of alcohol evaporates off of that anyway, so it's not that alcoholic.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2384] You just die in an avalanche. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2385] I think I'd ski better if I was drunk, actually.
None (KPVPS000) [2386] I, I found I skied better in the afternoon, now. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2387] Was you like, scared?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2388] I was petrified the time I went skiing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2389] Were you? [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2390] Pick me up.
[2391] It took me fifty five minutes to get into those awful [...] to get up to the top.
[2392] [laugh] It was only a ten minute thing, and everybody, cos I was the last one, of course, out of us, a group of twenty, and was so like freezing at the top of this mountain, I wasn't exactly popular.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2393] During the day ah.
[2394] She'd missed about twenty [laugh] keeps coming along, [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2395] When Phil and I, the first time we'd been skiing together, so that was last, not last year [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2396] Two years ago.
Rebecca (PS586) [2397] not since we'd been married, but, erm, and erm, it was in the March wasn't it, just before we announced our engagement.
[2398] And erm, we hardly got to see as much of each other, because we were like, in this group of ten people, and then, and so like one time we skied off piste, and we just had this massive snowball fight off piste, it was like really funny.
[2399] All these [...] mouth full of snow, made you feel like, I was wearing, I was wearing er, cos it's really hot, I was just wearing er er, thermal fleece, and it was like the thermal fleece was actually covered with [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2400] [...] with it.
Rebecca (PS586) [2401] Yeah.
[2402] Nightmare. [laugh]
None (KPVPS000) [2403] The time I went before that, I got erm, like a frostbitten thumb, because I was going up on the chair lift, and er, I dropped one of my gloves, and it was quite a cold day, so by the time I'd got to the top, and skied all the way back down, and then down the road going back to try and find me gloves, because I had borrowed them from a friend,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2404] Your hand had withered on you.
None (KPVPS000) [2405] and then, and then I got to the snow, chest deep,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2406] Black [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2407] so I had to lie down properly and crawl over the top of it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2408] Ah.
None (KPVPS000) [2409] I, I got to where, I got to where the glove was, and took me scarf off my hand and my thumb was just yellow at the top.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2410] Oh really?
None (KPVPS000) [2411] It goes like a, sort of like a wax crayon, where it freezes, and I put the glove back on, and you get, you get the hot aches, I mean, when the feeling starts to come back.

[2495] In a tall glass.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2496] [...] and say.
Rebecca (PS586) [2497] No, exactly.
Rebecca (PS586) [2498] But, erm, unless it's freezing cold, I don't like it, but I just absolutely adore a cold, a cold long glass of milk.
[2499] But if it's the slightest bit lukewarm,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2500] Er,
Rebecca (PS586) [2501] it just makes me wanna throw up.
[2502] It's true [...] it's the same thing.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2520] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2521] and then he went to a specialist book place, that can't find rare editions or whatever.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2685] Don't have to get up now. [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [2686] to somewhere.

[2688] So I.
[2689] [snore] If you don't want to listen
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2690] I'm listening.
Rebecca (PS586) [2691] You were asked to phone in, so, erm, so our phone was out of order, so [laughing] I had a phone card [] and it had four units on it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2692] Oh, Nicole.
Rebecca (PS586) [2693] And it swallowed up my four whole units, because I even got to [laughing] say what the answer was [] and I thought that was forty P, and I thought, I'm never ever going to phone into one of those things again.
None (KPVPS000) [...] [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2694] I've done it every week. [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2695] I'm not sure, but I just thought, I'm just paying for someone else to go on that holiday.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2696] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [2697] That's the idea, probably.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2698] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2699] Exactly.
[2700] That's the only reason that they can afford to do it, and they make a packet on top of it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2701] It's like jobs, you know, that have O eight nine eight
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2702] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2703] whatever numbers, you're, you're waiting
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2704] That's terrible.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2705] and they're saying well [...] and they claim there isn't a job at all.
Rebecca (PS586) [2706] But the only thing what, I, I mean, I got through, it says hi you've got through to Ross King's er, blah, we're going to repeat those competition questions for you, and they repeat it all to you, and they, is your answer A bla ... B ... C and then, it's please speak after the tone, beep and then you say your thing and then, now would you like to leave your name and number ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2707] You didn't have time.
Rebecca (PS586) [2708] and then it ran out, sort of like swallowed forty P, before I even got to say what my name and number was.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2709] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2710] I thought great.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2711] But then I, I still, erm, this question then, were you, were you with me?
[2712] I can't remember I think it was Louise who br I went up to talk to her, and the question was, [laughing] which of follow which of the following is not a swimming stroke and you have butterfly, breast stroke, bird crawl [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2713] [laughing] Wh []
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2714] [laugh] and I thought, [...] if you can't answer that question,

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2716] [...] I'll repeat that,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2717] The attached name thing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2718] and they take it so seriously.
[2719] Which of the following
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2720] are not a swimming stroke. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2721] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2722] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2723] Well, the thing is, it's so simple,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2724] Terrible.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2725] because they want everybody to phone in.

Rebecca (PS586) [2737] This, see I just thought it was just cos, you know, and he kept stressing it, which of the following is [shouting] not [] a swimming stroke, breast stroke, butterfly or [shouting] bird crawl [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2738] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2739] You know, you just think, why [...]

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2741] [laughing] You start worrying about yourself [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2742] Yeah, why mum watches it.
Rebecca (PS586) [2743] Also another thing is, when you phone up, it's like ... er you've, it's like on a time thing, so obvious well, not a time thing, but it detects whether you've said anything and how long the pauses are,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2744] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [2745] so erm, and it said to me, erm, say after the beep, and I didn't understand quite where the beep was, right.
[2746] [laugh] I know [...] actually.
[2747] They say speak after the beep, beep.
[2748] Like you know, you're sort of waiting for it, and then there's this [...] now would you like, and I thought, I haven't given my answer yet, and then erm, and just leave my name, cos I think [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2749] Oh [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [2750] it's erm, please leave your name and number, and the [shouting] postal area code [] and I couldn't figure out what they meant, your post code, or what, anyway, I sort, I, I left this long pause, shut your face [laugh] I left this really long pause, and it just like clicked off before I could leave my phone number, so they've got my, my answer and my names, but they haven't got my phone number, so I thought well, that's not much good, they can't phone you, can they?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2751] Oh, no.
Rebecca (PS586) [2752] So you think, and so people must like do this, and then phone back, I'm sure it's not just me, because I can't be that thick.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2753] No.
Rebecca (PS586) [2754] And so they get them to phone back, do you know what I mean?
[2755] Like they make a mistake, or I'd better phone back, and then it cost them all that much money again, [...] more money.
Inga (PS6RY) [2756] Bloody joke, innit?
None (KPVPS000) [2757] You might have just seen
Rebecca (PS586) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [2758] through a really clever ploy there, Nick.

[2771] It's about this composer, who's a complete maniac, psychopathic serial killer, the works, and erm, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]

[2775] Erm, eventually he tracks him down and kills him, I could probably stretch that all out.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2776] Who kills who, sorry?
Rebecca (PS586) [2777] The policeman kills the

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2781] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [2782] and eventually he's the killer and he gets killed, right.
[2783] And, and the policeman, the, the film is just winding down, and everyone's going ah, you know, sigh of relief, and it's the end of the movie, erm, well in the novel, and the policeman is back in his house ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2784] Whichever.

Inga (PS6RY) [2786] [...] Jagged Edge. [laugh]
None (KPVPS000) [2787] so the, so the policeman shoots the gardener and the gardener sort of, phworgh, falls onto the floor, dies.
[2788] His, his personal stereo headphones get knocked off as he falls to the floor, and dinkly dinkly dinkly dinkly, [laugh]

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2873] Mhm.
Rebecca (PS586) [2874] and you go up this thing that winds in and out and like there'd be cockerels sitting on the, on the little fences you have to go round, trying to peck you to death, er [...] I was like only tiny, you know, it was just like
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2875] It's very good when you're little then you [...] you probably weren't very buoyant, so.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2924] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [2925] and you eventually go blind from it, if you don't erm, don't catch it early enough.
[2926] [cough] So anyway my grandmother has it and it's hereditary you see, so my dad's, my dad keeps saying to me, you know, make sure you get your eyes checked, make sure you get your eyes checked.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2927] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2928] Now, I and I went to other day, I was having quite bad headaches from the back of my eyes, feeling like, you know, I had pressure there, and so, I think it was just headaches but I wanted to go and check it out, and I went to the, cos my dad said oh if you go to the opticians erm, they give you free checks as you've got glaucoma in the family, and erm, or glaucoma, or whatever you call it.
[2929] So I went in, and they said, oh yes, but they're free on the N H S, if you're over forty, so I thought great, you know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2930] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2931] I've got another twenty years to go blind.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2932] Yeah. [cough]

[2936] They said well, [cough] you're not likely to have, to have it.
[2937] I said well, yeah.
[2938] Well, I didn't say this, but I thought, well I'm not likely to have it before I'm forty, but then, what if I do?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2939] [...] anything, are you?
Rebecca (PS586) [2940] Exactly.
[2941] Anyway, so I, I was getting a bit worried about it, and, I can, cos I was having these headaches, and I started talking to Phil and I, I hadn't really said much to him about it.
[2942] It was late at night and I decided, I was just sort of talking I'd say, I can't get rid of this headache, and I don't know what I'm gonna do, I don't whether I should just not worry about it cos I'm not that old, [...] and I was really pouring my heart out to him, and he turns round and he says, yeah, you need a new clutch [laugh] you really need a new clutch.
[2943] [laugh] [...] I said, Phil, [...] answers, [...] and I said Phil and I started to laugh, cos I just thought, I wasn't going to get upset about it, so I just started to giggle.
[2944] And erm, it was quite nice actually, cos I was getting really worried,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2945] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2946] and, and, so I was just giggling away, [...] talk a load of rubbish, and [...] no no, [laugh] you need a new clutch, [...] forget it, forget it.
[2947] [laughing] I just turned over and went back to sleep [] . [laugh]
None (KPVPS000) [2948] [...] would you like some more coffee?
Rebecca (PS586) [2949] And in the morning, he had absolutely no recollection of it at all.
Inga (PS6RY) [2950] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2951] Needs a new clutch.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2952] No, it's terrible.
[2953] I hate, it's so irritating because when I go to, to bed, I'm never tired.
[2954] So I always sit up in bed for ages really wide awake, and I'm reading and doing all sorts of thinking like things, and I'd be talking to Ben, and he would say yeah, yeah, and he's really vague as well, and I, I get really angry and then I think you can tell because then you tend to lean across and say, are you alright, are you alright, and I just find it makes it worse.
Rebecca (PS586) [2955] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2956] Do you see what I mean?
Rebecca (PS586) [2957] I might, for Phil, for Phil to wind down, he'll come in, say we've been out for a meal or whatever, he'll come in and he'll sit down in front of the television.
[2958] Now that to me is not [cough]
None (KPVPS000) [2959] Only for five minutes.
Rebecca (PS586) [2960] I know, I just don't how you can do it.
[2961] Erm, whereas I
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2962] Are you alright?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2963] Yeah, sorry.
Rebecca (PS586) [2964] erm, I like to talk, so he's wound down, you know, really sleepy, comes to bed, and I'm like, that's when I wind down by chatting away and saying, you know, little snippets of things that have happened to you during the day, and he's just like, oh, shut up, go to sleep, you know.
[2965] And erm, you know I want to talk and wind down so I now exactly what you mean.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2966] I, I used to get in the night, didn't I?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2967] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2968] I couldn't sleep.
Rebecca (PS586) [2969] My mum's like that, she gets up at
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2970] Hours
Rebecca (PS586) [2971] two in the morning
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2972] I used to get up about three, [...] the fire, and things like this, and I used to get really bored.
[2973] Cos [...] you know, obviously nobody wants to talk to you at three o'clock in the morning, fast asleep aren't they, not much fun is it?
[2974] I used to get up and read, and oh it's so true.
Rebecca (PS586) [2975] My mum wakes up and I wake up at two, because she's pottering around in the kitchen, [...] , banging about a bit more than usual.
[2976] [...] mother are you alright?
[2977] And she'd say oh, yes [cough] she gets up most nights now, in the middle of the night.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2978] Yeah, I know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2979] How many hours do you need?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2980] Erm, I go through stages, normally I need eight hours' sleep, always eight hours' sleep, but I don't really sleep in.
None (KPVPS000) [2981] She doesn't feel sort of
Rebecca (PS586) [2982] She goes to bed quite early cos she gets very tired with work.
[2983] So she goes to bed early [...] a couple of hours,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2984] Not really?
Rebecca (PS586) [2985] All she'll do, is she'll sleep through to, she'll sleep through to like six, and then get up and that's it for the day.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [2986] I know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2987] Cos I just wake up in the night.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2988] I mean, if I can have twelve hours, then I'm happy.
None (KPVPS000) [2989] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2990] But if I don't have nine I'm [...] not worth talking to, really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2991] We'll have to get a tablecloth.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2992] Nine?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2993] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [2994] Really?
[2995] You have to have a lot of sleep.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2996] I really need sleep.
Rebecca (PS586) [2997] Really
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [2998] [...] awful.
[2999] The thing is, that I can go, for then, weeks and weeks with like six or seven hours,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3000] Yes, that would be great.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3001] and then the first day I stop, I've usually got flu, I'm exhausted, I can't get out of bed, I feel rotten, but if I keep going for like, three weeks to a month, just on six hours, that's fine, but the first day I stop I'm like, in bed for a week ill usually.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3002] You stop ... what?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3003] Like six hours, seven hours sleep a night.
[3004] I was saying, I need sort of eight, nine, and I could easily sleep for twelve hours.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3005] Oh, so do I.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3006] [...] I could go to bed early and it's sort ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3007] So do I.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3008] I'm terrible, if I've gone to bed really late, quite, you know, I just can't catch up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3009] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3010] I'm awful, I mean, that's why I got up, you know when you phoned me this morning, and said, I am sorry, have I got you out of bed, and I was like really grateful, because I can't stand sleeping in.
[3011] I always used to sleep in, until we got married.
[3012] Then he wakes me up when he goes out of the door in the mornings.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3013] You were, you used to sleep in really late.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3014] Oh, yeah, I know, when I used to stay, cos Helen and I were as bad as each other, weren't we, though we didn't encourage each other very much to get up early.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3015] Helen was terrible.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3016] Helen was worse than me, I [...] got up for Neighbours, I mean, she was really dead.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3017] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3018] [...] if she could make it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3019] Yes, she does, she gets up in the middle of the day, doesn't she?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3020] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3021] If she's got nothing to do, yeah.
[3022] But she doesn't so much now, cos she's [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3023] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3024] But erm, now I get up at eight o'clock every morning, and this morning I slept in till ten, but that's cos I was up till four, working on Thursday night.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3025] God, what were you doing?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3026] Valponi Er, [...] or not [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3027] I can't really stay in bed past nine o'clock.
[3028] Normally eight o'clock.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3029] In the morning?
None (KPVPS000) [3030] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3031] I can't go to bed very early though, any more.
[3032] I used to be able to go to bed early and go to sleep.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3033] Yes, cos I always used to go to bed a lot earlier than you guys.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3034] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3035] I say, the reason I think I had bad dreams, recently, in the last sort of three nights, is because they're the three nights I went swimming early, so I thought I better go to bed early.
[3036] So I was in bed about eleven, instead of two in the morning.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3037] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3038] Which meant I probably was [cough] like awake to start with, because I, although I got up at seven, I still wasn't ready to go to bed at eleven, cos it was still too early, and usually I go to bed about two.
None (KPVPS000) [3039] Body clock's sort of
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3040] Yeah, my body clock was like, still really really active.
[3041] Cos usually I'm just like in bed, and that's it.
[3042] [...] and when I have to get up, I have to get up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3043] [...] changed about midnight [...] whereas when I changed [...] go to bed.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3044] Charlotte I'm much better at going to sleep with noise around me, though now, cos I can't tell when by body clocks, tends to shut your eyes, so I just blot it out now.
[3045] I've managed to
None (KPVPS000) [3046] Been quite noisy upstairs.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3047] Not quite noisy, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3048] Often they come in about half an hour after we've gone to bed, so you're still not quite ... asleep.
None (KPVPS000) [3049] Yeah.
[3050] Probably no difference [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3051] Well, that's it.
[3052] Yeah.
[3053] [...] tend to get used to.
None (KPVPS000) [3054] Yeah, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3055] I used to be constantly telling them [...] to shut up [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3056] There you go.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3057] I was a real pain in the arse, wasn't I?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3058] No, not really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3059] The worse thing is, when I, I am desperate to get to sleep, cos then ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3060] You can't.
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3061] Because, because then you do, exactly, if they make any noise, I'd be like, will you shut up. [cough]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3062] And then that makes it even worse [cough] because you go round and round [cough] in circles, and you know and the more [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3063] The more angry you get [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3064] Exactly [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3065] and I used to get really angry with Alison ... shuffling around, but they do it even, I mean, they've got to get their sofabed out every night, that sort of thing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3066] Oh, right.
Rebecca (PS586) [3067] And so, you can imagine the sort of noise they make,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3068] Lisa?
Rebecca (PS586) [3069] people upstairs, cos they live in, they live in the space of our bedroom and bathroom.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3070] You're joking.
Rebecca (PS586) [3071] No,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3072] My goodness.
Rebecca (PS586) [3073] I know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3074] What, and the, and ...
None (KPVPS000) [3075] Wh where the ceiling changes height.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3076] Yeah, where the ceiling goes up.
[3077] There's from there back to the bathroom.
None (KPVPS000) [3078] From there to the bathroom.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3079] That is all they've got?
Rebecca (PS586) [3080] That's all they've got.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3081] Oh, my life.
None (KPVPS000) [3082] That's just one room.
Rebecca (PS586) [3083] I know.
None (KPVPS000) [3084] I mean, I don't how they put up with each other.
Rebecca (PS586) [3085] So, when we, you can imagine the noise that they [cough] [...] I mean, it's not their fault.
[3086] It's not being any more noisy than we are here, but
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3087] No, above you it seems more noisy.
Rebecca (PS586) [3088] Exactly, and when they come in it's really loud.
None (KPVPS000) [3089] You know about it.
Rebecca (PS586) [3090] And they're traipsing around the room, getting the bed out, doing this that and the other.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3091] We're amazed that we can hear the people downstairs, cos we can hear them like, you know, if you hear somebody above you, walking here dong dong dong dong, above, you can hear it for some reason, below on the ground floor.
Rebecca (PS586) [3092] Even more, and it really, and if you are on your own,
None (KPVPS000) [3093] They must have a sprung floor, or something.
Rebecca (PS586) [3094] it really sounds like someone's coming upstairs.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3095] Yeah.
[3096] You think there's somebody on your level.
Rebecca (PS586) [3097] Cos you didn't always hear it.
[3098] It's only
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3099] No.
Rebecca (PS586) [3100] certain occasions.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3101] [...] smelly substances as well.
Rebecca (PS586) [3102] Yeah their illegal substances.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3103] Oh, no.
Rebecca (PS586) [3104] Smoking illegal substances.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3105] They have, yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3106] I [...] coming up through the floorboards.
None (KPVPS000) [3107] Perhaps they're walking on the ceiling, that's why you can hear it. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3108] [...] I wanna go now.
Rebecca (PS586) [3109] You can really smell, can you [...] smelt it, Claire [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3110] I thought, I thought someone had been smoking in the toilets.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3111] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3112] Is it?
None (KPVPS000) [3113] Smoking [...] in the toilets, yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [3114] I didn't like to say anything, [...] but [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3115] Well, when I came in, I thought, somebody's [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3116] Yeah, probably in the toilet area, kitchen toilet.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3117] Oh good, I'm glad we got that sorted out.
Rebecca (PS586) [3118] I think, I think that, I don't think they smoke all the time upstairs, but like, in the summer, er, basically this place just had its windows and doors open all day long, every day.
[3119] And erm, one day we had friends round, and I went into the loo ... it stinks of smoke in here, it was really bizarre, and I, I went, and sort of just thought oh, and then I went in again, and I really did smell, and I thought, this is really odd, and so when I came out here I said, did anyone else smell smoke in the ba in the bathroom, and they said oh yeah, I could smell cigarette smoke, and then, it must have just been upstairs, and it wafted down, and in through ours, cos there was no one else really around.
[3120] It's just like really bizarre.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3121] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3122] Yeah, it was really strong in the loo, just around the loo.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3123] It was, really really strong.
[3124] Especially in the toilet.
Rebecca (PS586) [3125] That's why, [...] and they were smoking out the window, er, up here.
[3126] I don't know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3127] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [3128] But I mean, sometimes [cough] our house does smell,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3129] [...] friendly.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3130] And that's why ...
Rebecca (PS586) [3131] Oh, that's a shame. [cough]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3132] Sometimes,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3133] I've never smelt it before, though, since [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3134] Yeah, but I always remember in, in the lounge there was, always seemed to be weird smells.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3135] Oh, that's when they came to change the curtains.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3136] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3137] This place smells funny sometimes, and I really start getting paranoid, sort of, spraying air, air re [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3138] [...] actually.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3139] [...] it's that kind of smell, he's into.
Rebecca (PS586) [3140] No it does.
[3141] You know when we came in the other day, you came to see the sofa?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3142] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3143] Didn't it smell odd?
[3144] You don't remember?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3145] I don't think so, no.
Rebecca (PS586) [3146] Maybe it's just me.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3147] You get paranoid, though, don't you?
Rebecca (PS586) [3148] I don't like it being very stuffy.
[3149] But because when you got the, you think you got the heating on and you're paying for the heating, and you open the windows.
[3150] It's ridiculous.
[3151] But I don't like it being stuffy, so this morning, I had all the windows open, cos it's nice and sunny and, erm, I had the windows open.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3152] But no, it's quiet, we can hear them down there can't we?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3153] Yeah, surprisingly.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3154] Oh, can you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3155] But then again, we can only hear them at the moment, but there are six of them.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3156] Yeah, that's true.
Rebecca (PS586) [3157] There's four.
[3158] There's two
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3159] [...] underneath the two couples. [cough]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3160] Two living in their, our lounge equivalent, and two living in my bedroom, equivalent, and then
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3161] I thought there was just of them downstairs [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3162] There are, but they've got his brother, his, Sam's boyfriend's brother, and his girlfriend and then their friends as well and they're both, they're all Kiwis, they're, they're all over from
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3163] It's really sweet.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3164] Yeah, but they're all over them.
[3165] They're all gonna start to share, all gonna start sharing the place. [laugh]
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3166] They're all gonna start sharing the place together, cos it would be cheaper.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3167] Is that why they're moving out?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3168] Yeah, they're moving out at the end of this month.
[3169] We've gotta have them round.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3170] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3171] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3172] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3173] We feel really bad, we don't [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3174] So they can leave us [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3175] We haven't met any of the other people that live ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3176] How many flats are there here?
Rebecca (PS586) [3177] Thr four, including ou including ours.
[3178] Well, we've met the guy who lives up above us, because he jumped out of bed, they've got french windows like we have, up above there, and he jumped out, and we were just sitting watching the telly or something, we heard these footsteps like going across the ceiling, it's as though we could see 'em, cos we could sort of hear it and feel it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3179] Real weird.
Rebecca (PS586) [3180] And we nipped out there, and sort of looked up at him, and it was like, oh hi, we like go, is it safe up there?
None (KPVPS000) [3181] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3182] We had us some con weird conversations with this guy standing on our roof.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3183] Yeah, we hear this television is [...] .
Rebecca (PS586) [3184] Was it, yeah. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [3185] Do you have to pay for your T V licence plus all the other flats separately?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3186] Don't know, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3187] We don't need to pay, it's per household, isn't it? [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3188] We don't have to pay for ours.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3189] No.
[3190] But I mean, per household, do you have to pay?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3191] Yeah, it's not [...] is it?
None (KPVPS000) [3192] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3193] Individual.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3194] Bit of a shame.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3195] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3196] We think this is really disgusting, I don't know whether anybody noticed, but, on the back of the T V licence, we got our T V licence through, apparently [laugh] if you are registered blind, you get one pound and twenty nine P off your off your T V licence.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3197] I know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3198] Off, eighty three pound.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3199] Big, big deal
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3200] [...] it's disgusting, isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3201] What an insult, honestly.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3202] Couldn't believe it, could we?
[3203] You'd think you'd get twenty five percent off, or something minimum.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3204] Get it free [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3205] One pound, twenty five.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3206] [...] credit.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3209] and blind. [laugh]

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3213] Charlotte, you gonna have some ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3214] I can't believe it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3215] Sorry, I'm what, oh, didn't you know [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3216] Erm, I was gonna say something.
[3217] Erm, yeah, I was gonna say, it's not even just like listening to the radio, is it, because they're catering for the, for the sighted, they're not, you know, if it was on radio, they'd say more, but I mean, it's television, but
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3218] Does it end up making sense
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3219] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3220] television is a more visual thing
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3221] You could listen to the news on the telly and it wouldn't make any difference, but if you're watching a programme,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3222] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3223] there's a lot of gesture
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3224] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3225] and, and looks and things
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3226] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3227] going on that you've missed.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3228] [...] it would be a bit
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3229] That's a new thing [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3230] It's not as if they could read the Radio Times and see ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3231] It's alright, leave it in the [...] we need some time [...] .
None (KPVPS000) [3232] Erm, I got interviewed on radio once, on, on television once with a friend and they asked, they asked us what we did, and this friend of mine said we were radio mime artists.
[3233] [laugh] Gee, thanks.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3234] Oh, no.
None (KPVPS000) [3235] Like we're really going to be taken seriously now.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3236] What was this for?
None (KPVPS000) [3237] That was with .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3238] What was it for?
Rebecca (PS586) [3239] Don't ask who it was with, they asked you what it was for.
None (KPVPS000) [3240] It was erm, it was one of these sort of things, where you could go on and record your bit.
[3241] If erm, if you got a thing that you're feeling uppity about.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3242] Oh, no.
Rebecca (PS586) [3243] [...] it makes on our W T coding thing.
None (KPVPS000) [3244] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3245] The London Sport, or whatever it is.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3246] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3247] Yeah, but were you the sort of people that walk into hospitals and start praying for the sick to be healed.
[3248] [laugh] Really weird, honestly, when you, you really had the faith it would happen and it quite often
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3249] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3250] Yeah.
[3251] But it's the fact that the guy gave erm, my friend Billy, erm, died a few years ago, erm, but they, they were like best mates and they used to ju just encourage each other to like, jump on a train and come up to London, and start going in all the hospitals and praying for the sick and things like that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3252] Oh, they're really weird pe er not weird.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3253] That's down there in that photo with his wife.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3254] Oh, right.
None (KPVPS000) [3255] Actually, before he moved away, he, he gave up his designing job and he was working in [...] for a bit.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3256] And erm, you don't know this, but when, when I used to go round there, he used to moan about all, no, he didn't moan, but
Rebecca (PS586) [3257] Oh you did tell me.
None (KPVPS000) [3258] What about all the girls.
Rebecca (PS586) [3259] The girls.
None (KPVPS000) [3260] The girls in campus, blinking heck Phil, they keep coming out in their underwear and saying, can you get me this size, or can you get me that size, you know, what am I supposed to do you know.
[3261] Keep banging his head against the wall.
Rebecca (PS586) [3262] He was a great guy.
[3263] He phoned up, a guy erm, Head of er Air Canada.
[3264] Top guy.
[3265] He found out the guy's name, right, he
None (KPVPS000) [3266] First name.
Rebecca (PS586) [3267] Yeah, first name.
[3268] He phones up and he says, oh hello, can I speak to Tom, and then, and erm, this woman, receptionist, whatever, obviously thought oh well, he knows the guy
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3269] Yes.
Rebecca (PS586) [3270] so she him put him straight through [cough] and then goes, Mr Smith, erm, my name's Mike , er, you don't know me, but I'm a graphic designer and er, my wife and I are trying to emigrate to Canada, and erm, I'd like you to send me some business and give me two free tickets for it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3271] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3272] And the guy did it as well, sent him some business.
[3273] He did a couple of hours' work, and he got two free tickets to Canada.
[3274] Cos otherwise they'd never have been able to afford to go, so
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3275] Wow.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3276] And it took him about twenty five minutes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3277] How old is he now?
Rebecca (PS586) [3278] He's now twenty eight.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3279] Oh, who was the one that died, then?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3280] Same age.
None (KPVPS000) [3281] No, that's his friend.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3282] Really?
None (KPVPS000) [3283] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3284] Blimey.
Rebecca (PS586) [3285] He was on a pushbike and he was sucked into the slip, into the strip blah, into the slipstream of a car [...] lorry [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3286] Ooh
None (KPVPS000) [3287] But he, he built up his own graphic design business, by designing something, say, Quality Street.
[3288] He'd look at that and say, I think that's a really outdated adve erm, design.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3289] Mm.
None (KPVPS000) [3290] So he'd design a new one, and he'd write to the guy at Quality Street and say look, I think, I'm a graphic designer, I think your box is a load of rubbish, I've designed this, will you pay me for it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3291] Really?
None (KPVPS000) [3292] And he built up a whole business just by picking famous names and saying, look I think your design is really outdated and it's not doing your image any good.
[3293] How about this?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3294] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3295] I couldn't believe that he just about had the audacity to phone this guy up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3296] Yeah, but that's how you get [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3297] Yeah, exactly.
None (KPVPS000) [3298] [clears throat] I mean, that must be a thousand pounds' worth of air tickets.
Rebecca (PS586) [3299] And they lost a fortune on their house, trying to sell it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3300] And erm,
None (KPVPS000) [3301] It took him twenty five minutes on, on his computer,
Rebecca (PS586) [3302] So he just
None (KPVPS000) [3303] and that was it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3304] Fiddling around, yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3305] He just gets [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3306] Mm, if you don't know these things, if you don't try these things, you don't even [...] you always do it, don't you Claire, you're quite happy to barter with people in these situations [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3307] It's the way we got our house.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3308] I think, yeah, I think you need to be sometimes [...] like that [...] are awful.
Anne (PS6RW) [3309] [...] they saw our house Friday, and they rang me up, and I said look, you know, I've got, I've got my exams today and I really don't want to come up unless you see something, if you do, I will come up because they reckon it's a joint effort, if we're gonna live together, we've all got to see it and make a contribution to looking at the house.
[3310] So anyway, they rang me up Friday night, and said, oh, seen this house, it's lovely and really nice.
[3311] What's the arrangement?
[3312] We'll meet you there at twelve o'clock Saturday, right.
[3313] Right, I'll meet you at McDonald's blah blah blah.
[3314] So anyway, we got down here,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3315] [...] eaten [...] sandwiches by then.
Anne (PS6RW) [3316] and erm,
Rebecca (PS586) [3317] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3318] when we got down there, and erm, rang the bloke and he wasn't in and we kept ringing and he wasn't in.
[3319] We just thought, they said, oh, we'll show you where it is, so we drove round there, and ... no, he wasn't there, and, so of course, we drove back there about four or five times during the day, and like we drove past there one time and there was a woman standing outside, she said like, oh what do you want, I was like, oh well, we've come to see the house [...] .
[3320] So by the end of the day, I was like, look I've come all this way, which wasn't totally true, but I said, look I've come all this way, the bloke arranged that he would meet us at this time, and he's not here, and like, you know, I've come two and a half hours in the car, and I've gotta drive home again, and we were gonna have a look at the house.
[3321] So by the end of the day, we'd met Sam, we knew her, we'd been in her house, we'd looked around her house.
[3322] We found out that the neighbours on the left hand side, who were in fact an elderly couple, and his son was working erm, and he had his own business working at home.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3323] Then we had erm, the other people next door, the woman [...] erm, who was supposed to be a man-eater, we'd actually looked round her house and it was ident identical to ours and we looked, we looked all the way round her house and like, she said, oh yeah, all the building's the same but just in reverse and like, we met all the neighbours, plus the woman opposite [...] hadn't seen the flat,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3324] [...] I mean, what's wrong [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3325] Of course you can.
Anne (PS6RW) [3326] so anyway [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3327] You can actually see [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3328] but then, on the other hand, I'm not the sort of person who, I mean, if it's something like that I can ask people, but I've got friends who are quite cheeky, who will ask things, I mean, like if somebody does something for me, I'm like, are you sure, are you sure, you don't mind, and like, I'm like over the top the other way.
[3329] But if you're just generally talking to people and not actually asking anything of them,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3330] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [3331] I'm very willing, but seeing as someone's doing something for me, I'm like you sure you don't mind?
[3332] People get like actually annoyed and I just like what do you mean, I mean, you're doing it anyway, it's no problem.
Rebecca (PS586) [3333] My mum's the sort of person who'll just argue with anything, if she thinks ... she'll argue with anybody, or anything if she thinks that she's being swindled, so like, [laugh] she even went to the extent of having, they, we had an extension built, right, and she, we had it, only fair's fair, this one particular suite, we had erm, and they, they had this absolutely massive bathroom built, [laughing] okay [] not specifically to have a nicer bathroom, but to have a very big room and erm, so they had two sinks, this sounds real extravagant, erm,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3334] Is there another glass out there?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3335] Where do you keep the glasses?
Rebecca (PS586) [3336] Down, under ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3337] There's one there.
None (KPVPS000) [3338] In the front of the bar cupboard.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3339] Yeah, it is yours.
[3340] Erm, they've got two things, a bidet, a toilet, a corner bath and a corner shower on the other side, right?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3341] Is this in one room?
Rebecca (PS586) [3342] In one [laughing] room [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3343] Goodness.
Rebecca (PS586) [3344] I know.
None (KPVPS000) [3345] It's, it's wider than this room, and it's easily from here to the end of the kitchen. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3346] Yeah, I see.
Rebecca (PS586) [3347] No, it's not.
[3348] What a load of rubbish.
[3349] Philip, no, that's an exaggeration, come on, it's about as wide, it's as long as this room
None (KPVPS000) [3350] It's about that big [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [3351] it's about as long as this room, and probably a bit wider.
[3352] But it just, because they had it, they had our, our double garage and that knocked down
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3353] A quite big [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3354] It is isn't it [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3355] The bath must be the size of a sofa.
None (KPVPS000) [3356] Oh, yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3357] Well, it's not that long, but it's in [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3358] Yeah, well you know that sur with the surround and everything and if it's [...]
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3359] Oh, come on, let's not over exaggerate.
Anne (PS6RW) [3360] Is this because they built onto the [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3361] [...] to have a big bathroom.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3362] Do you have to embarrass your parents [...] bathroom.
Rebecca (PS586) [3363] Well, what it was was, erm, cos my grandmother was very ill, [...] granddad's sort of
None (KPVPS000) [3364] And they've got a, and they've got a sort of washstand in there.
Rebecca (PS586) [3365] Can I.
[3366] [sighing] Oh [] , for goodness sake.
Inga (PS6RY) [3367] How big's their [...] Claire.
Rebecca (PS586) [3368] They had a double garage knocked down, and built around the area,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3369] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [3370] so they just had building built on top of it,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3371] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [3372] and my parents had,
None (KPVPS000) [3373] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3374] because of that, they've got a very big bathroom and a very big bedroom,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3375] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [3376] because they just, two rooms,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3377] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [3378] put over the top of the,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3379] Yeah, yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3380] yeah, garage.
[3381] So erm, cos downstairs, we had it all extended, so we could have a disabled bathroom and that sort of thing and,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3382] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [3383] instead of going [...] use the garage.
None (KPVPS000) [3384] I can't see the point of having a bathroom that doesn't work.
Rebecca (PS586) [3385] What do you mean, a bathroom that doesn't work?
None (KPVPS000) [3386] Oh, sorry, sorry.
Rebecca (PS586) [3387] Are you trying really to piss me off?
None (KPVPS000) [3388] No.
Rebecca (PS586) [3389] Well, what do you mean?
None (KPVPS000) [3390] It was a joke.
[3391] A disabled bathroom. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3392] Erm, [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3393] Yes, it doesn't matter what I was saying, anyway.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3394] Is this, is this [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3395] We know what you mean.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3396] Is it separate from the bedroom?
Rebecca (PS586) [3397] It's not in the bedroom, it's
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [3398] Is the, the bathroom's not in the bedroom, is it?
[3399] This is separate.
Rebecca (PS586) [3400] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3401] A separate room.
Rebecca (PS586) [3402] What I was saying was, just that like, they had all these pieces of furniture in there, it was supposed to be a suite, but my mum, my mum got round and tell you every single piece that was a different colour or the wrong shape, or didn't fit on the pedestal properly, or this and that, and she had the whole lot changed at least three times.
Anne (PS6RW) [3403] Really?
Rebecca (PS586) [3404] Yeah, and cos we had, we had the bathroom that was originally there, that they knocked through to build all this extension, was converted into a shower room, and she didn't think that the sink was right in that, and the disabled bathroom had at least two or three pieces that she thought bolshie in that as well,
Anne (PS6RW) [3405] Really?
Rebecca (PS586) [3406] and after just that they kept sending the wrong pieces, I mean, like they, they sent another piece to replace it, and it was it was just as bad,
Anne (PS6RW) [3407] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3408] my mum wasn't having it.
[3409] Everyone else was just, [laugh] everyone else could have all the faulty stuff, they may not complain, but I'm going to,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3410] Yeah, [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3411] I have to stick to my guns, I'm paying a fortune for this stuff, why should I have faulty
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3412] Exactly.
Rebecca (PS586) [3413] furniture.
[3414] Even if the whole lot's being processed like, perhaps it shouldn't be, and then of course your standards aren't good enough.
[3415] So sh mum's had a [...] my mother, but she's got what she wants.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3416] My friend had, they had er
Rebecca (PS586) [3417] It's taken a year to get it all.
Anne (PS6RW) [3418] What's that big kitchen fur is it Schr Schreiber?
None (KPVPS000) [3419] Schreiber.
Anne (PS6RW) [3420] Yeah, they had them come and fit their kitchen and they really did pay thousands of pounds for it, and erm, there was a chip erm, one of the units on the top and they, they just fitted it like it, and my, their dad called them back and said, look you know, I'm paying thousands of pounds for this.
Rebecca (PS586) [3421] That's [...] [cough]
Anne (PS6RW) [3422] [...] got quite a lot of money off for it.
[3423] They, they said well we can redo it for you, they said we can give you a reduction in it, and he sort of bartered with them, and I think he got, you know, a good couple of hundred pound off just for this little chip in the unit.
Rebecca (PS586) [3424] I should think so.
Anne (PS6RW) [3425] I mean, if you're paying for these things, and you know, fair enough.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3426] My parents had fitted cupboards and wardrobes, you know, fitted like throughout their room, it's like, the normal two cupboards on one side, the cupboards above, plus the extra fitting and like wall fittings and, then the back bits by the bed, and then they had stable door and the big long dressing table and the end unit, and they actually bought different side panels for different wardrobe fittings.
[3427] Like they got, I don't know, something called Shadow,
None (KPVPS000) [3428] [...] yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3429] which was like sort of beige colour with gold erm, handles, and they sent a sort of bluey colour side rails and top, and thought they, they'd get away with it.
[3430] I mean, they were actually looking at it and we were going, but it's not the same furniture.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3431] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [3432] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3433] And they were like, oh, oh well, what you mean, you, you're not prepared to have it.
[3434] And like my parents sort of went, the thought that they gave them money that we had for it, yeah
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3435] Yeah, exactly.
Rebecca (PS586) [3436] Yeah, it's like you could actually, I mean once my mum had pointed it out, I'd never had noticed, but you walked into the bathroom and you thought, yeah,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3437] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3438] they are different colours.
[3439] But like, obviously the bath and shower, cos they're plastic, they're not going to be exactly the same colours, so that's quite good, you can get away with that.
[3440] But the two sinks the bidet and the toilet, were all like different shades, and you just like, yes, but is this all supposed to be the same thing.
None (KPVPS000) [3441] [...] yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3442] And like, in the di in the disabled bathroom the, the er, it's not on a proper pedestal, so it's sitting on it
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3443] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3444] it's just got a bit to cover the pipes, so it just like, sits on the wall, so that you can get a wheelchair underneath.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3445] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3446] and it's much lower down, and this thing, it's like a gap, it's like ... this big around the bottom of the sink, so like it wasn't even touching the sink, the, the pedestal bit under bits underneath, it's like, it had a sort of similar sort of shape, so it should fit, but it was like, a massive gap underneath, like ... no ... [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3447] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [3448] I think a lot of people tend to put up with things, don't they?
Rebecca (PS586) [3449] Well, they do, that's right.
Anne (PS6RW) [3450] Don't like to complain.
Rebecca (PS586) [3451] When you just think, the number of houses, not everybody can go through that, cos otherwise they would have done something about it.
Anne (PS6RW) [3452] Yeah, that's true.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3453] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3454] In fact, to happen time and time again.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3455] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3456] It's like when we were in Cyprus, the amount of things that you can actually barter for.
[3457] Do you know what I mean?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3458] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3459] And like, they'd say, this was so much money, and mum would say, any chance of a discount?
[3460] And I think by the time she'd finished it would be half price, she'd walk out with the thing half price, and she'd say, well you know, it's just, they make up prices and you go to another shop and it would be the half price marked, and you go into another shop it would be, you know, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3461] [...] over there.
Rebecca (PS586) [3462] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3463] That's what their, that's the whole way they trade.
[3464] Over here you know, it's marked up that, and you just don't dare to
Rebecca (PS586) [3465] But then the thing is that [laughing] my mum comes back here, and she's buying and she's like, any chance of a discount, and I thought mum, because she's like [] so into that lifestyle, now,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3466] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3467] like the culture, but it's amazing how many people, even in England, if you do have the audacity to ask
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3468] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3469] they will say, oh, alright then.
[3470] And they give a, though she's not being like, really cheeky, it's because she's been living in a culture for four years, where [cough] that's the way they, they sell and buy.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3471] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3472] But because she's back here, she still sometimes does it, and in fact they do do it for her.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3473] If I'm in a shop and I find something that's slightly faulty, and I think, well I could easily fix that.
[3474] I go up to the counter say, erm, I'd like this please, but it's actually got this tear in it, or whatever's wrong with it, erm, can you give me some discount?
[3475] But a lot of places say, well, is there another one that's alright.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3476] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3477] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3478] And so, you
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3479] They'd rather sell you the full price, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3480] Yeah, exactly.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3481] [...] say that about
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3482] Some, some places say oh, yeah, alright then, I'll give you such and such off.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3483] It's the big warehouse places, you know, the big stores that aren't interested, if because
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3484] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3485] it's all mass produced and they might as well not sell it to you, and send it back to the manufacturers and get a full discount.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3486] True.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3487] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [3488] Sometimes if you offer to pay for things for cash, you get a discount,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3489] Mm.
None (KPVPS000) [3490] because they have to pay, sort of, two or three percent on ...
Rebecca (PS586) [3491] Yeah, we did that, when you bought our erm,
None (KPVPS000) [3492] [...] and things.
Rebecca (PS586) [3493] when we bought our chest of drawers.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3494] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3495] We got twenty five off didn't we?
None (KPVPS000) [3496] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [3497] Really?
Rebecca (PS586) [3498] Yeah.
[3499] But I think that was
Anne (PS6RW) [3500] I never ask, I mean, that's really stupid of me, which I, I wish I did, I just always just, I don't know, I'm really stupid like that.
None (KPVPS000) [3501] Never any harm in asking, though, is there, as you say [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3502] You ask.
None (KPVPS000) [3503] Pardon?
Rebecca (PS586) [3504] You ask.
None (KPVPS000) [3505] Haven't really [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3506] You remember [...] have you.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3507] Well, that's the thing, I think it's the English attitude, of
None (KPVPS000) [3508] It depends, it depends on what it is, doesn't it?
Rebecca (PS586) [3509] oh don't, don't ask, because you don't want to look as if ,
None (KPVPS000) [3510] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3511] either you haven't got the money or you don't want to [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3512] Yeah
None (KPVPS000) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3513] because people look at you, and just like, oh gosh how scummy.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3514] Well, it's just that,
Rebecca (PS586) [3515] But it's not.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3516] I wouldn't I wouldn't even think of asking.
Rebecca (PS586) [3517] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3518] The best thing to get richer is like, going round car boot sales, like my mum, she's so funny, dad said she's a different woman, she's just like, cos when Phil and I erm, were engaged, we were trying to save up money, so we, oh and like we'd sell off all our old stuff, so just give me [...] of money, and then, we got these [...] and my mum was pricing everything up, and she's going, if someone asks for a discount, don't, just don't give it to them, she said, everyone's going round pricing everything up and erm, when they come to you, they just, they just want things for nothing.
[3519] She's going on and on about everybody wants something for nothing.
[3520] [laugh] And she's just like, this really officious and then, she just said, everybody goes round, and they try and get the cheapest price and they go back to the place that are giving the cheapest price, whatever.
[3521] She'd say, stand your ground, don't, you know, sort of like, then she goes round to everybody else, trying to get everything for nothing. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3522] Yeah, exactly.
Rebecca (PS586) [3523] Funny, though, watching people,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3524] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3525] cos I mean, I had to help my dad with a car boot sale, this is a man who doesn't buy anything erm, secondhand
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3526] People just turn vicious.
Anne (PS6RW) [3527] Really?
Rebecca (PS586) [3528] would only shop in Harrods.
[3529] And there he was at a car boot sale, it was like
Inga (PS6RY) [3530] Well, it's amazing what people will buy.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3531] I know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3532] You get couples who shop together and then they get addicted to your car boot, and they want everything and it's quite amusing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3533] I've had people, I've, I've driven up and it's in the pouring rain, and you've people just, they hoard round your car as you drive up.
[3534] You can't actually get things out of your car.
[3535] [laugh] And you take out a box of stuff and they're sorting through the stuff and you're like, excuse me, and you're trying to get your tables out
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [3536] [...] you know.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3538] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [3539] and you know, all this sort of stuff, and they won't even let you get things out the car, I mean, they are in your car it's like [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3540] And then you all go round the car boot and they have their own car and they'll be selling your stuff out of it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3541] I've had people come up and buy records and tapes and things and they've gone back to their stall which is all they sell is records and tapes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3542] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [3543] and they've priced them up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3544] Honestly.
Rebecca (PS586) [3545] They've bought them off yo them off you, say for three pound
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3546] My gosh.
Rebecca (PS586) [3547] and selling them at seven.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3548] Crikey.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3549] So you really have to keep an eye out.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3550] You gotta know what you're on about.
Rebecca (PS586) [3551] Yeah, exactly.
[3552] I mean, I got wise to it after a while.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3553] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3554] I had some guys come up, and they were, they were really pissed off with me because, my mum sort of like, this guy just done this with th th the stall next door, but he left some stuff that he obviously already had things of, which he didn't think it was worth him buying, and this guy came round, and they were obviously from one of these, you know how you get erm, secondhand erm record stores
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3555] [...] yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [3556] yeah, actual, you know, shops that [cough] and erm, there's these two guys together and they were really trying to intimidate me, I mean like, big stuff.
[3557] They, they priced everything up, and they said, right that's eleven pounds, what can you do me for.
[3558] I said, I beg your pardon?
[3559] Said, well what price would you give me?
[3560] I said, the prices are marked on the thing

Rebecca (PS586) [3561] That was provided by erm ...
Ann (PS5AF) [3562] Oh yeah, it's really good.
[3563] It really picks up things very well.
Rebecca (PS586) [3564] Yeah.
Ann (PS5AF) [3565] Yeah, it's excellent.
None (KPVPS002) [3566] Yes, they're really expensive to buy, they're about ninety quid to buy.
Rebecca (PS586) [3567] You'll just have to ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3568] what, those walkmans ...
None (KPVPS002) [3569] Yeah, 'cos that's got a radio you can use with it, as well.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3570] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3571] You can use it for an interview.
Ann (PS5AF) [3572] They don't usually have record buttons, do they?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3573] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3574] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3575] Well, last night, I went through all the different topics, you know, the composer situation.
[3576] And I went through them and I I narrowed it down to three ... things now.
[3577] Task or topic
None (KPVPS002) [3578] What you were gonna
Rebecca (PS586) [3579] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [3580] do in your essay?
Rebecca (PS586) [3581] Either that ...
Ann (PS5AF) [3582] I thought you were reading the Alchemist or something.
Rebecca (PS586) [3583] I was, but I erm, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3584] Well, I finished that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3585] Oh, good.
Rebecca (PS586) [3586] Finished it all, and then, I just decided ... then I sorted out my washing, and then I decided what part I was gonna do, I'd narrowed it down to either topic, task or topic erm, stable features, which are, sort of, erm, self confidence and things, and erm, how you you express yourself, and then a third one is like sex an and gender and age.
Ann (PS5AF) [3587] Do you have to do all this from the tapes that have been recorded.
Rebecca (PS586) [3588] Well.
Ann (PS5AF) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3589] Yeah, you're meant to do your own recordings.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3590] If if not, you supposed to record, they're supposed to be, in fact, two minutes, and I couldn't read, 'cos two minutes is about half ... two sides of of transcript, so that's all we need really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3591] So it's ... otherwise, it would be just too big to analyse.
None (KPVPS002) [3592] Plus, all us, we had to do erm, transcribe ... five minutes.
[3593] Well do you know how long that would,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3594] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [3595] can you imagine how long that would take, it would just be impossible.
[3596] We were o on ... and I thought, no way, and then Marianne said, no, it's ju , she said, that's too much, we'll be, and like, erm, [...] , we'll knock off er, five hundred words of your assignment, if you do five minutes of thing, and that's, no way.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3597] [...] , really.
None (KPVPS002) [3598] you're gonna do well over five hundred words, bloody writing it out.
[3599] [sniff] so Marianne well, she said, she said, well okay then, do five hundred.
[3600] Like both sides, to do like two and a half pages.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3601] Well, I don't mind doing that.
Rebecca (PS586) [3602] Thing is, they say, take half an hour to transcribe two minutes, but that's probably by professionals anyway.
None (KPVPS002) [3603] It does, the thing is, if you've got a lot of speakers ...
Rebecca (PS586) [3604] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [3605] Becaus I mean, the the one I've got here, [...] the one I've got, erm, er that I taped on Saturday night, there's seven people on it, and they all keep cutting across each other on it, it would just be impossible.
Rebecca (PS586) [3606] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [3607] Was it a good conversation, though?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3608] Bet that was good though
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3609] The effects when listening back to it.
Rebecca (PS586) [3610] How are you [...]
None (KPVPS002) [3611] It was just like being at the cinema, but it's just like being, it's just like being in the room again, because of the conversation's back. [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [3612] Was this seven girls, or ...
None (KPVPS002) [3613] No, there's there's [noise - background] Phil, and erm, Nicole's erm, the girl she lived with last year, her and her boyfriend came.

[3616] And we, it's really funny because of we started off the evening talking about leg waxing [laugh] .
[3617] The conversation keeps coming back to leg waxing at every quarter of an hour, it's really funny.
Rebecca (PS586) [3618] Really.
None (KPVPS002) [3619] Yeah.
[3620] Oh my God.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS002) [3621] No.

[3626] And Claire did, and so did Charlotte, it was really ... oh. [noise - background]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3627] I I told my mum and dad about that on Sunday, that she's got a leg waxing machine.
[3628] I said she had been trained properly, I was telling them just basically about Claire in general and just about the good of erm, things like [...] things you like to talk about, and erm, so I just, I said, they cried poverty, I said, but you know, one minute she's driving her old banger, and the next minute she's got a K reg and [...] outside the [...] ,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [3629] And then I said, then she'd been bought a a hundred pound of leg waxing machine.
Rebecca (PS586) [3630] Does it look good on.
[3631] I hope ...
None (KPVPS002) [3632] She shares it with her mum.
[3633] I don't think her mum uses it very much.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4436] It has to be not too strong and not too weak.
[4437] What Sam went through oh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4438] So it can be weak, or ...
None (KPVPS002) [4439] If you do get a drink, she'll make a pot, and it'll have like one tea-bag in it.
[4440] And like she'd pour it out and it's really really weak and insipid, and I go, oh, [...] do you mind if I add a tea-bag to that.
[4441] 'Cos she doesn't drink it with milk, so it don't really matter to her.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4442] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4443] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [4444] 'Cos my mother, likes it really strong, and you like it really strong,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4445] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [4446] but sometim
Ann (PS5AF) [4447] I used to drink really quite strong before, but I decided to give up erm, like, take less sugar, so if you take less sugar, I think I only took two sugars anyway, 'cos my tea was so strong, 'cos 'cos the stronger it is, you need more sugar to sweeten it.
[4448] So I decided to give up one sugar and you know, I have to take it sort of weak weaker anyway.
[4449] It's better for me, 'cos there's less caffeine, and I drink a lot of tea, so.
[4450] So it's better.
[4451] But I would try and give up sugar altogether, but I don't know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4452] Well, you need to just give it up and [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4453] I can't stand tea with sugar in it.
Ann (PS5AF) [4454] I know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4455] That's the way I did it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4456] Because, I I I
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4457] You can't reduce it and reduce it, 'cos then you're still depending on it.
Ann (PS5AF) [4458] I did it with erm, with er, I went from one and a half and I'm down to one, 'cos I was, I I've tasted my father's sometimes, 'cos he thinks two and a half, he used to take three, [laugh] and I'm like aw it's [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4459] Er.
[4460] My dad used to take two sugars, and when I said I was giving up sugar in tea and coffee, he reduced it to one.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4461] Yeah?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4462] Mm.
Ann (PS5AF) [4463] 'Cos I think if I'd said, right I'm gonna give it up, I wouldn't drink tea ag again, 'cos I wouldn't be able to drink it, sort of without sugar.
None (KPVPS002) [4464] Mm.
[4465] What about sweeteners.
[4466] How about trying those?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4467] Mm.
[4468] It's funny, I thought about sweeteners the other day, I think it's just as bad as sugar, I think.
None (KPVPS002) [4469] No, they're not, they got no calories in them, they've got something like nought point, nought, nought calories in them.
Ann (PS5AF) [4470] No, it's not er calories, I'm thinking about erm, ruining my teeth, that's the only reason [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4471] Yeah, [...] in your teeth.
[4472] It's not like putting a massive like spoon, if you think about it, right, if you have a spoonful of sugar in your tea,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4473] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [4474] it's just like drinking, it's just like getting a spoonful of sugar and sticking it in and wiping it around.
Ann (PS5AF) [4475] Yeah.
None (KPVPS002) [4476] You just diluting it a bit in the the erm, tea.
[4477] And if you drink as much tea as you say you do, just think how many teaspoons of sugar you have a day, extra.
Ann (PS5AF) [4478] Mm.
[4479] But I don't have any sugar in anything else, I don't I don't eat chocolate or anything, so that's a [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4480] [...] have got sugar in.
Ann (PS5AF) [4481] Yeah.
[4482] I only drink, what have you.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4483] Sweet and sour sauce has got loads and loads of sugar in it. [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4484] You'd be surprised the amount of things that have got sugar in.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4485] Yeah.
[4486] Yeah.
[4487] You'd be surprised.
None (KPVPS002) [4488] All sauces and that, have all got a load of sugar in.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4489] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [4490] Especially things like salad cream.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4491] My mother, she decided to give up sugar, I think it was about one year.
[4492] Well, she just decided to give it u to give it up, she never used to take much anyway.
[4493] But erm, she used to take one in coffee and nothing in suga , I mean in tea, I think, and then she just gave it up, and she said it, she hated it for ages, and then one day she she tasted, she drank my father's [...] and she said it was absolutely foul [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4494] That's what I'm like, I drink sugar with it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4495] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4496] [...] she going, [...] horrible, innit.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4497] I did that the other week, [...] sort of going yuk
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4498] Mm.
[4499] My mum drinks it black, so.
None (KPVPS002) [4500] What, tea?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4501] Yeah.
None (KPVPS002) [4502] Why's that?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4503] She just always has done.
[4504] All her family, like [...] they all just drink tea with a very little drop of milk in it, and she always drank it with a little drop of milk, and then, she decided not to drink it with milk at all.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4505] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4506] So she has two sugars [laughing] instead [] .
Ann (PS5AF) [4507] Sometimes, I've, I've had tea without milk, and it doesn't taste that different really, it's just [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4508] If you have skimmed milk, it doesn't.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4509] [...] like water anyway.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4510] It's just at the end it is, it's bitter at the end.
[4511] You know, when I've tried it without milk, I just don't, I just leave about that much at the end, 'cos it gets really bitter.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4512] I never usually finish my tea, down [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4513] Oh, I do.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4514] but coffee I drain the cup, but tea I don't.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4515] I couldn't do that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4516] I do.
None (KPVPS002) [4517] My mum always used to say that, why haven't you drunk this little bit of tea in the bottom, but I never do.
[4518] Just, you would always leave a little bit of tea in the bottom of the cup, I don't know why.
[4519] [laugh] A phobia, I think there was somethin a spider at the bottom.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4520] [...] social convention. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4521] No, when, when we drink it at home, because [...] there are, not
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4522] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4523] not tea leaves as such, but there is [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4524] Yeah, residue.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4525] tea in the bottom of the cup, so it doesn't taste very nice.
Ann (PS5AF) [4526] Because, I mean there is a difference between fresh tea and and er loose tea, and erm tea-bags, because there is [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4527] Do you have tea-bags at home?
Ann (PS5AF) [4528] Yeah, we have tea-bags at home, but downstairs, the tea machine, you gotta use erm, well, they use loose tea.
[4529] I mean, it is different, I never used to like the loose tea, when I was younger, but now I I sort of really taste the difference.
[4530] I didn't, never used to taste as nice.
[4531] But now, I I like it, I don't why.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4532] Well, Auntie [...] had a tin of loose tea and tea-bags all day, like normal days, they drink tea=bag tea.
[4533] But if we go round there, [...] and they get the china cups out.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4534] get the [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4535] [laugh] get the [...] drinks.
[4536] [...] loose tea.
[4537] My mum 'cos it's so much cheaper to buy them the more [...] .
[4538] No, we're not on the tea-bags this week,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4539] What just ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4540] I've just spent all my shopping,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4541] so you've got tea leaves.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4542] Yeah, it is it is cheaper to [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4543] Oh, yeah, very, very much cheaper.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4544] Look at that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4545] You're just paying for the convenience, aren't you, really with tea-bags, that they're just all sealed, you know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4546] Yeah, I suppose.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4547] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4548] Not for anything else, really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4549] Still the same flavour inside.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4550] I tell you what.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Ann (PS5AF) [4551] No, I'm jut showing that I'm a bit bored, though [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4552] Bit bored. [laugh]
Ann (PS5AF) [4553] [...] Tell you what is such a big con, was when the round tea bags came out, the round tea-bags.
None (KPVPS002) [4554] They're nearly all round now, though, aren't they?
Ann (PS5AF) [4555] I think that's such a con, they even had adverts [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4556] They they're erm, their better flavour for,
Ann (PS5AF) [4557] Oh, [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4558] fuller flavour all round.
Ann (PS5AF) [4559] Er.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Ann (PS5AF) [4560] I know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4561] What does it matter if it's in a square bag or a round bag. [laugh]
Ann (PS5AF) [4562] I bet if they brought it, done it in star shapes, people would go out and buy them.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4563] I do prefer the round ones, though.
[4564] I know it's stupid.
[4565] [laugh] I do.
[4566] I know it's pathetic, you know, I much rather have round ones.
[4567] They look nicer in the cup.
Ann (PS5AF) [4568] My mother though, she's er, she's does, she's not fussy about loose tea leaves, but she's gotta have a Glengetti tea-bag.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4569] She's a Thai.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4570] She won't drink any other tea.
[4571] Erm, it's just the brand, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4572] It's the brand.
None (KPVPS002) [4573] Never heard of them, have you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4574] No.
None (KPVPS002) [4575] Glengetti?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4576] Welsh brand.
None (KPVPS002) [4577] Oh, is it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4578] Yes, erm, [...] was saying to me [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4579] Could you send her down here.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4580] No, no, [...] but erm, like [...] was saying, she doesn't reckon they are Welsh.
[4581] She doesn't think they are Welsh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4582] With a name like Glengetti.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4583] I know, that's what I said [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4584] Welsh, Scottish, or Irish [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4585] [...] she says she reckons that it's Scottish, it's a Scottish brand, but you know, I don't think it must be.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4586] [...] in the er, dark ages. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4587] They are nice.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4588] Do your parents
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4589] But speaking to you
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4590] I know you don't, sorry
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4591] Carry on.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4592] Your go.
None (KPVPS002) [4593] Erm, I know your parents don't really eat much sweet stuff, but do you have, generally have any sweet stuff in the house, really or is it ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4594] No.
None (KPVPS002) [4595] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4596] Like we might buy, my sister is, she loves chocolate, my mother would buy her packet of of Secrets or something, she buy a
None (KPVPS002) [4597] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4598] six pack or something, but my mother very rarely buys biscuits or anything.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4599] Really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4600] Because we got biscuits downstairs, anyway,any way, so sometimes my mother has a cup of tea, and might just say oh go and get me erm, a Twirl, what are those twirl things.
[4601] Walnut, walnut whip, that's it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4602] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4603] Oh, go and get me that packet of digestive biscuits [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4604] I'm not a great eater of [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4605] No, none of us really
None (KPVPS002) [4606] We've always got sweets up in our house, but then again we've got young children.
[4607] They eat so much.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4608] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4609] But what's the point in stocking up,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4610] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4611] if you've got it all downstairs, we can just nip downstairs.
None (KPVPS002) [4612] Mm.
[4613] That's true.
[4614] Like if the shop was separate, if we had our own, sort of, house.
None (KPVPS002) [4615] You just, you live quite a bit out of the shop.
[4616] Do you get quite a stuff from the shop.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4617] Well, we haven't got a fridge upstairs.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4618] Oh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4619] And I've been nagging my parents.
[4620] At one point about three years ago, they said, right, we'll gonna buy a small fridge, so at least we can keep bread, milk, and things like that upstairs.
[4621] And [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4622] Yet you got a proper kitchen upstairs.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4623] Yeah, we've got a proper kitchen, we just haven't got [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4624] With a cooker?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4625] Yeah [...] fridge.
None (KPVPS002) [4626] Oh, what a pain in the arse, you have to go downstairs.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4627] Yeah.
[4628] So, in the mornings, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4629] Is there space for a fridge?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4630] Not really.
[4631] There'd be a space on the wall, perhaps small fridge, one of those small little ones, so you can just put the bare essentials in.
[4632] But like, erm, in the holiday, sort of sometimes if I get up late, I'll come downstairs, and my mother's brought everything up, like the milk, the butter and cheese and br er bread's upstairs, but.
[4633] But otherwise, I've got to go downstairs.
[4634] Or if my mother comes up, and I'm sort of just getting up, she says, oh do you want me to bring stuff up, or ideally, I usually say or I'll come downstairs and get breakfast.
[4635] But that's what I hate, I've got to go downstairs to get my breakfast.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4636] Oh, what pain.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4637] Got to go downstairs to get my lunch, it's really [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4638] If you've got a kitchen, it defeats the object, really, doesn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4639] Oh, no, 'cos you you you go cook upstairs, we've got a cooker [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4640] That's what I mean. [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4641] You've got to go downstairs to get everything.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4642] If you've got a kitchen upstairs, it defeats the object of you're having a fridge [...] [very loud background noise]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4643] Unless you bring up and down the stairs.
[4644] [...] wouldn't you.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4645] The thing is though, we've got erm, got one, two, three, four, we've got five fridges.
[4646] You know, and and the one we use for the shop, for the kitchen, is just a converted drinks machine, so it's massive.
[4647] It really is big.
[4648] It's a big huge fridge.
[4649] So we just keep everything in there.
[4650] And like all the lettuce, the you know, all the foods that are usually used in the shop, we just use it for ourselves anyway.
[4651] It, I go downstairs and my mother will make a big box of of tuna mayonnaise, I just get the tuna mayonnaise box, get some suga , you don't [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4652] It's quite handy really, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4653] We don't have our separate [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4654] yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4655] Yeah.
[4656] We don't have our separate stuff, sort of thing, my mother will make sort of, bulk of egg mayonnaise, like the other day, I thought, I'll make egg mayonnaise now.
[4657] Made two, erm, cooked two eggs, and it lasted me two days, whereas you know, usually if I go downstairs, I don't have to make anything, because all their pre-prepared anyway.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4658] Mm.
[4659] Still it ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4660] Like usually the top shelf, is usually our own stuff.
[4661] Our own sauces, or whatever, erm, if my mother makes a cake, it goes on to the top shelf, but usually we just use everything.
[4662] We've got bread and milk.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4663] Ours is a bit like erm, Tesco's really, so much in it.
[4664] [laugh] Honestly, there's such a good su stock in our kitchen, you could live for a week.
[4665] 'Cos my mum's got one of these people that always keeps the stock up, she won't let it get really low,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4666] Yeah.
None (KPVPS002) [4667] she keeps stocking up every day.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4668] Yeah, [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4669] But what ha , what
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4670] Aladdin's cave.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4671] Stop scratching your leg.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4672] I'm n I'm just erm, just [...] .
[4673] What I find though, erm,becau my, because we got so much stuff coming in for the shop anyway, like the lettuce or the fruit and veg, my parents don , you know, like most people go,yo your mother probably goes, how many, how often does she make a shopping trip?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4674] Probably gets something every day.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4675] Well, like, you know, not to be [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4676] My mum, erm, once every two weeks.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4677] See, my parents hardly ever go.
[4678] My father will go to the cash and carry every week, and perhaps he'll pop into into Tesco's or something and get a few bits and pieces, so we got a lot in the fridge, but it's not a lot of variety.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4679] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4680] So, erm, you know, my mother like, if she, if she needs something, she just asks me just to pop to erm, Gateways.
[4681] Occasionally my parents will go to Tesco's and then it's not like, with lots of people probably spend about a hundred pound, even more probably, wouldn't they?
[4682] But you know, my parents would pay, probably spend about thirty or something.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4683] Wouldn't spend a lot.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4684] And Kerry at home, young girl whom I'm going to see erm, take that with, like you look into her freezer, she's got a big freezer like that, and they've got so much frozen foods, and you look into ours, we've got the one the same size, but it's just basically frozen vegetables, so you know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4685] We've got [...] .
[4686] Everything's frozen basically in our house.
[4687] Well, she does buy vegetables, but she'd rather buy frozen veg, 'cos it's just easy for her, dead easy for her.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4688] Yeah, it is easy, yeah
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4689] Probably erm, it's probably nicer 'cos it's it's it's frozen straight away after it's been picked, innit?
[4690] So it's probably fresher.
None (KPVPS002) [4691] Mm, they say that, don't they about frozen veg.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4692] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [4693] They say it gives er flavour more.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4694] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [4695] You know, some people, just don't like buying them, do they?
[4696] They don't buy frozen vegetables.
[4697] They'd rather cook it fresh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4698] No, they got [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4699] They won't like Kerry's house.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4700] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4701] We got to use them up like [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4702] Yeah?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4703] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4704] Well, there used to be a fridge/freezer at the bottom of the stairs.
[4705] But the freezer kept freezing up, and er, we've had it since we left Sussex anyway.
[4706] It would be fourteen years old now.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4707] Bloody hell.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4708] Coming up for fifteen years old.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4709] Erm, so like they just took all the fridge
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4710] Part,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4711] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4712] [...] the erm, the bar, the like the dining bar [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4713] And er, keep the lemons and things in it, and then, the freezer is just for ... and when there was like a [...] of stuff at Christmas, they put stuff in it from downstairs,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4714] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4715] but [...] freezers anyway.
[4716] And erm, we got a big, er huge chest freezer.
[4717] Deep freezer, downstairs in the cellar.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4718] Do you stock some, at all for yourself?
[4719] Do you ever use any fridge/freezers.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4720] No, [...] fridge/freezer so it's down two flights of stairs.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4721] Mm.
[4722] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4723] I don't know, it's just a pain in the arse.
[4724] But we've never really eaten that much frozen food anyway.
[4725] Mum's never had that much stuff in the freezer.
[4726] When I used to buy stuff from M and S, from the staff shop.
[4727] We'd stick it in the freezer that we've got downstairs.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4728] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4729] But you know, we just don't need frozen ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4730] 'Cos, yeah, it's just vegetables we keep because erm, or if my mother makes sort of a lot of curries or things.
[4731] Or or tomato sauce for the pasta, she'll freeze it in indiv individual portions, but Kerry at home like, they've got some real frozen meals, and they do do rely heavily on convenience foods, which we don't really.
[4732] But you know you were saying that your fridge was fifteen years old, that one.
[4733] Well, we got at the back of th the erm, shop there's ... we got this room and it's got this walk-in freezer erm fridge, and
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4734] Walk-in?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4735] Ye yeah it kinda just walk.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4736] It literally clogs around.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4737] [laughing] you just walk in [] and like, it was there and I would have said it was old when we arrived, and we've been there nineteen perhaps twenty years.
None (KPVPS002) [4738] Bloody hell, and it's still going.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4739] It's huge, it's so big. [laugh]
None (KPVPS002) [4740] And do you you use it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4741] Yes, used.
None (KPVPS002) [4742] And you've still got another five fridges.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4743] We got a big one where erm, sort of, it's really cold, and so we keep erm, the longest dates and everything erm, that we don't need immediately, and then, we got the fridge/freezer, we got the freezer in the stock-room, which is ours, we we just bought it,wh , my parents bought it about three years ago, for ourselves.
[4744] Then we got the big fridge in the kitchen for all the foods like we use every day, then we got erm, oh w no, we got six fridges, and then we got the pie fridge, got all the p pies and put the cakes in as well, and we got another deep freeze.
[4745] We keep the ice-cream and at the pa the pizzas and the ready meals that we cook.
None (KPVPS002) [4746] Oh, you got quite a variety of foods.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4747] Yeah, quite a variety, and then we got the drinks machines.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4748] Do you do desserts?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4749] Well, apple tart, but you know, things we bring in, apple tarts erm, custard slices,a the occasional eclair erm, yeah, we do quite a range, actually.
None (KPVPS002) [4750] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4751] Yes, we got six freezers, one, two, three, four, five, six, you know for, it's not that big ... [...] it's quite a lot, really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4752] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4753] Well, we got a lot of storage space, but, because we get deliveries three days, three times a week,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4754] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4755] you know.
[4756] Don't we don't hold a lot of stuff for any period of time,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4757] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4758] because it's all just coming in and going straight out again.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4759] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4760] 'Cos,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4761] Like the ice-cream and stuff, I mean, you know, ice-cream a box of ice-cream won't be there more than a week.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4762] 'Cos erm like
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4763] Like their individual portions.
[4764] So erm, you know, it's there that, although we've got a lot of storage space,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4765] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4766] The turn-over of food and the selling of food, you know.
[4767] I mean,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4768] Things obviously, like herbs and stuff ... Steve only orders once in a blue moon.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4769] Yeah.
[4770] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4771] And and like the dry store, erm, with all, it's got like the rice in it, the custard in it, all those sorts of things, I mean, you know, he might order that stuff once a week, rather than having it come in three days a week.
[4772] But then, there might be joints of meat and the ice-cream and all the desserts and all the all, I mean, we have had fresh veg, we're not allowed to put peas on the carvery.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4773] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4774] Had to have six fresh veg on the carvery
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4775] Do you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4776] at all times.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4777] That's hard going then, isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4778] [...] , that's hard work, you know, you have to prepare all that veg, and [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough] [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4779] And so, if
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4780] So if
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4781] So if erm, if they're not used, they've got to be thrown away, they can't be sort of used again the next day, the veg.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4782] Well, most veg you couldn't use couldn't use up, could you.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4783] No.
[4784] I don't suppose.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4785] I mean, you just have to control it,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4786] You don't cook, you don't cook as much as you need, you might have your potatoes prep but you don't cook them if you don't need them.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4787] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4788] Erm, you know, if they're sitting there in water and they've been peeled and they're ready to cook, they won't be cooked until they're needed to be cooked, you know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4789] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4790] And erm, oh well, you know, they might have cauliflower cheese prepared to to put out, you know, they might.
[4791] Say they needed it at eight, they thought they might need it at eight o'clock and then turned out they didn't, because one body else came in the restaurant, then they'd just stick that in the fridge over night, and put it out the next morning.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4792] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4793] But, like if it's been out on the deck, the only things off the deck that they can save, is like Ratatouille, they save that, erm, and like [...] but it's unused [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4794] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4795] nothing else really.
[4796] [yawning] everything else has to be thrown out [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4797] 'Cos there's that [...] what were they doing [...] they'd be doing [...] and the bread the bread and milk comes every day and then I think the meat, [...] meat comes once every week, like.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4798] My bread I get from Tesco's.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4799] Do you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4800] [...] I get from the Co-op next door.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4801] Yeah, sometimes Tesco's, sometime.
[4802] I used to pay this friend to go like into Tesco's.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4803] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4804] Sometimes James go up or Dennis goes up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4805] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4806] If not they go to the Co-op, but Tesco's bread is cheaper.
[4807] Erm, but [...] .
[4808] I mean, we, we used to have, like, we'd have [...] meat come twice a week, they're the butchers, and then we'd have [...] coming, maybe, erm, once a week, and then like the dry goods, er, erm, we'd have another day, where erm, you know, you have different things, basically coming every day.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4809] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4810] and the milkman would come and everything else, and now it's all central distribution, and erm, [...] meat, you know, do central distribution, for the whole thing, and erm, they, all the companies that used to deliver to us individually, they deliver to the central depot, [...] and they, in turn, distribute it to all the houses,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4811] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4812] and it's a much better system, overall, which is, you know, you don't have to ring up some many different people every week.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4813] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4814] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4815] Ringing up for one order, so it does work out better now.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4816] It's really funny, because, we know our ... [shouting] Hello, [...] [] Bet it's [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4817] Hi.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4818] She's just walked in [laughing] [...] []
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4819] I had a feeling I knew it would be you. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4820] Hi yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4821] There's no one else that walks into our house, without ringing the bell. [laugh]
None (KPVPS002) [4822] [laughing] Just goes for it. []
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4823] How are you.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4824] Very well, thank you, how are you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4825] We bought you a drink [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4826] Lovely and sweet [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4827] Bit disappointed in you. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4828] You didn't do very well over the weekend, did you, 'cos I was watching them and they didn't do that well.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4829] I know, he didn't really have a good [...] he had a good day in the Mail on Sunday, though.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4830] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4831] [...] oh right.
[4832] [laugh] I thought [...] as in ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4833] ... Italy, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4834] Oh my life.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4835] You haven't got your new clothes on.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4840] Have you got them down here?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4841] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4842] I told her to bring them down ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4843] You haven't even got, you haven't even got your [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4844] No, sorry.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4845] She's got holes in those bloody jean, look at her.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4846] I know, sorry.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4847] [laugh] Ar, look at all these apologies
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4848] she's having to make, you wicked things. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4849] I always come round in my jeans.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4850] We always give her a hard time.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4851] They're so mean to me. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4852] What have you lot been up to?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4853] Nothing.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4854] Just watching the box ,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4855] And we're just sitting here, talking about food.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4856] Mm. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4857] Just lazing around, really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4858] How's work going?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4859] Really fun.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4860] It hasn't been that busy, it's not busy. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4861] Isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4862] It's just not like home, at home.
[4863] Like if I worked at home on Saturday night, and I worked at home on a Sunday lunch-time it would be really, really busy all the time, and like there's four areas to cover in [...] and there's only two areas and I think its too [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4864] It's so weird though, cos The Rising Sun, it's not as if it's not central,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4865] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4866] it's on the way to bloody Richmond, you think it would be busy, wouldn't you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4867] That's weird.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4868] Just a small [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4869] On the main road .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS002) [4870] When we were in there, that Bank Holiday Monday, it was really busy, wasn't it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4871] Well.
None (KPVPS002) [4872] Was it really busy, or was the bar service just crap.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4873] The bar service is crap.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4874] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4875] There's only one person on ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4876] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4877] Erm,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4878] [...] I mean, there were people in there, though,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4879] No, that's true.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4880] you know, I mean, Sunday lunch certainly wasn't any busier than that was.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4881] Mind you, anywhere would be busy on a Bank Holiday.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4882] Dead.
[4883] [laugh] Well, it's not dead, but like, when there are two of you on, you're not exactly taxed.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4884] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4885] Well, when we went to a [...] erm, they phoned, we wen , the woman, we said, ah, with the Rising Sun'll be, do you think the Rising Sun will be full as well, 'cos she phoned for us.
[4886] And they phoned up, and they were fully booked until about four o'clock, so ... [...] a Bank Holiday.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4887] Yeah, I mean, there were a lot of people in there on on Sunday.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4888] There was peo , there was loads of people waiting in the bar, for tables for the restaurant.
[4889] But, like, we weren't rushed off our feet, is what I [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4890] [...] no thank you.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4891] People sat at all the tables in the bar, and some tables, there was like two lots of people sat around the same table, sharing a table.
[4892] And then you had twenty people, well, over twenty people sat in the window, and they all had bar meals, and they'd all been to do with this run, you know, there's a big run through Twickenham on a Sunday morning, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4893] going on the way to work.
[4894] And they'd all been in the run, so they all came in for lunch, and they, you know, it's like twenty bar meals, and then they were coming up to drink, to order drinks, they were doing like ten drinks at a time.
[4895] But even that wasn't, you know, it wasn't any effort,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4896] No [...]

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4898] [...] oh here he comes. [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4899] And these take it down off the counter and do it like this, and I'm getting more strength in my hands, now, because I'm using them to do more. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4900] Do you think perhap , erm, because it's not so busy, do you think perhaps they've cut back in the restaurant, and that's why you're doing a bit more work ... for the restaurant, you know, doing the floaters and things.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4901] No, no, that's the way these places are run.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4902] Yeah.
[4903] Well, I thought perhaps it's because it ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4904] They haven't got the facilities, facilities couldn't be anywhere but where they are, and that's how, erm, Beefeaters do their, set their bars up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4905] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4906] [...] I see.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4907] Bar staff with help with the coffees
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4908] But they've got more of a concentration on the restaurant, whereas we haven't, we have a busy time and without a busy [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4909] Yeah, that's true.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4910] You know.
[4911] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4912] Yours is busy both sides, isn't it really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4913] Whereas this is just one bar, with about five regular customers, [laughing] as far as I can work out. []
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4914] Is there any night during the week, where you're not, the bar's not particularly busy, you'd say?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4915] Well, I mean, early week, Monday, Tuesday, well, you see, then we have like erm,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4916] [...] going.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4923] A very popular pub, yours, isn't it, why do you think that is?
[4924] Is it because [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4925] The area, I mean, we back onto a big council estate.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4926] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4927] And then there's another housing estate over the other side of us as well.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4928] Is there not any pubs [...] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4929] No.
[4930] no.
[4931] I don't think so.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4932] Yeah, I mean, the next pubs are right over the side of the hospital,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4933] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4934] all the way along to the Windmill, so, like the area we cover, there's a lot of people, and like, the middle part, it's very nice up there, you might, really attracts middle-class people, that we get out, for middle-class, middle-aged people that could go and sit in there for a drink.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4935] And there's the other bar.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4936] And then the public bar's there, for everyone ... else, sort of thing, and erm,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4937] you know that that's that but no, not even that, you know, really, erm, I mean, they, the public bars are supposed to be aimed at people of a lower social status.
None (KPVPS002) [4938] Bad innit when they go round giving these areas for people.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4939] But erm.
[4940] But that's just the way they'd rather be. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4941] Yeah, that's true, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4942] probably local, and, I mean the bar the prices for drinks are always cheaper in the bar, as well.
None (KPVPS002) [4943] Are they really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4944] Always.
[4945] Always have been until now, but now they're the same price everywhere.
None (KPVPS002) [4946] Oh.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4985] Well, it still doesn't give me any money, but it just stops more money going [laughing] out of my account. []
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [4986] At least your overdrafts a bit better. [laugh]

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5003] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5004] for taking money out.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5529] Oh, I see.
None (KPVPS002) [5530] So it might disturb their neighbourhood, you know, so they weren't very impressed with his ideas.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5562] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [5563] They're nice, aren't they?
[5564] Now you know why you eat so many of 'em.
[5565] I wanted to get the wholemeal ones, bloody out in Tescos.
[5566] The only thing, their bread's a bit crap in there.
None (KPVPS002) [5567] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [5568] Never get, you know, as big a selection as I'd like to get ... in there.
[5569] But, still beggars can't be choosers, they are cheap, they had loads of offers on them.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5570] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [5571] Tins of baked beans, fourteen P.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5572] Do, what do they taste like, though?
Rebecca (PS586) [5573] Well, I should imagine they're just the same as their normal ones, and they've stuck a, a whacking great white label on them, but I mean, you know, perhaps they're of an inferior quality, I don't know.
[5574] I haven't tasted them yet.
[5575] Julia's had them and she said they were fine.
[5576] Erm, well, rice pudding.
[5577] Only [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5578] I don't like anything like that.
Rebecca (PS586) [5579] I, I wouldn't buy it, but,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5580] Emily eats it for breakfast.
Rebecca (PS586) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5581] With jam on it.
Rebecca (PS586) [5582] Mm.
[5583] Why don't you like it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5584] Not that I'd ever tried it, but, that sort of thing, semolina, and all that,
Rebecca (PS586) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5585] I hate it, urgh.
Rebecca (PS586) [5586] Yoghurt, you like yoghurt, though.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5587] Mm, but, urgh.

None (KPVPS002) [5589] Oh, that's good.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5590] Mm.
None (KPVPS002) [5591] Yoghurts are expensive, aren't they?
Rebecca (PS586) [5592] They are, that's why I got that offer for three big ones.
[5593] Actually, they did have six for fifty nine P in Iceland, but the date was up on them like, Sunday, and I thought, I won't get through all the them.
[5594] Once they start going off ... it's not really worth having them, so.
[5595] Bought me trusted cottage cheese.
[5596] Some parsnips, some carrots, cucumber, onion, apples.
[5597] Didn't get the [...] plates, I'm gonna get them tomorrow, it's too awkward to carry [...] [laugh] but I generally get nothing exciting.
[5598] Just the bare essentials.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5599] I've got masses.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5600] Really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5601] Like, I've got half a pepper, and a piece of cheese and some, some kind of sp spread.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5605] Really?
Rebecca (PS586) [5606] Erm, so cheese on toast, and Cuppa Soup for you, then. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5607] Probably be nothing, actually.
[5608] I eat, I went, when I went round to Maryanne and my [...] baked bread next door, I like I went down, I went in there before, before I went upstairs into the flat, and bought a, a roll for twelve P.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5609] Oh, yeah, that was good.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5610] Mm.
[5611] Soft roll, and then erm, I had a Viennese Whirl with it, and I sat and had that with my can of Diet Coke that dad bought a can of drink on the train this morning and never drank.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5624] That was nice.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5625] and then erm, we drove, er then we walked through this park, which was lovely, it had squirrels running all round the place and pigeons and everything, it was gorgeous, and, and because it, it'd been such a gorgeous day, it's just that my fucking nose is cold.
Rebecca (PS586) [5626] It's really bright.

[5890] World population, erm probably what I'm gonna have to do is, although they, they said you can't do it [...] don't get any ideas about doing it with [...] because it's not possible.
[5891] It is possible
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5892] Mm.

Rebecca (PS586) [5919] And then they take note of what the issue is, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5920] [...] realize, don't they, yeah.
[5921] So I've got all ready, for me AIDS [...] cos I used to just think oh I don't really, I could just go and get some leaflets on ban on [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5922] True.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5923] Well, I must ad I'll probably end up going down there, and getting the [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5924] Our local chemist at home.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5925] Yeah, they've, they've always got this good stand, haven't they?
[5926] All this stuff, loads of stuff down there about pregnancy, and measles.
[5927] [laugh] Yeah, so they reckoned it's not a scrapbook, but it is really.
[5928] That's quite easy really, I'm quite happy doing that.
[5929] Quite like that idea.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5930] But erm, yeah, it's alright.
[5931] I like this girl, cos she's Welsh, just, I can't do her accent, but she kept saying it several times, he was getting really pissed off with her.
[5932] He'd obviously taken time over building up this little booklet explaining the stuff.
[5933] She just destroyed it in one go.
Rebecca (PS586) [5934] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5935] Like he, he was like saying, it's got to be a ... the word book, will eventually [...] he was really getting into it and really going into about, you know, how it's really gonna be jam- packed with important information, and she just said, [shouting] so it's just like a scrapbook really [] you know, when if you've filled all that up
Rebecca (PS586) [5936] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5937] and somebody said that.
[5938] It's like, oh yeah, thanks.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5939] [mimicking] No, not at all
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5940] And then the next bit, she says it again.
Rebecca (PS586) [5941] No, yeah, that scrapbook, yeah, that's not got to be in till later, has it? [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5942] [laughing] He was really pissed off [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5943] Oh, you're gonna go down well.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5944] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5945] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5946] But yeah, it's alright, it's okay ... but not a lot's going on, really, I haven't been in any activities for ages.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5947] There's quite a few erm, posters up, asking you to go along to join, the netball fiasco
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5948] You're not exactly erm, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5949] No it's changed [...] the er ... they've got quite a few plays going on, they've got chess going on
Rebecca (PS586) [5950] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5951] with er, what d'ya call it, Barbara ... you know?
Rebecca (PS586) [5952] Oh, right, the musical.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5953] Have you seen about [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [5954] Er, Barbara Dickson and Elaine Paige.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5955] Yeah, yeah that one.
[5956] They've got that one going on.
Rebecca (PS586) [5957] Have they.
[5958] That should be quite good to watch.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5959] And er, and they've they're out doing the [...] Rocky Horror Show as well.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5960] Surely erm, what's her face, er, Jane [...] was it Jane?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5961] No, she hasn't.
[5962] Yeah, I don't know why.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5963] How's she getting on with her drama, do you know?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5964] Yeah, she likes that subject, she not that keen on French, cos she thinks she isn't that advanced.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5965] Oh dear.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5966] It's all completely in French, the whole lesson
Rebecca (PS586) [5967] Oh, that's a bit worrying, innit?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5968] Everything, once you go in there,
Rebecca (PS586) [5969] Oh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5970] you speak French and that's it.
Rebecca (PS586) [5971] Oh, that's really worrying, isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5972] I shouldn't be able to do that, ah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5973] Yeah, so she said it's a bit, cos she only got an E for French, and she's not very good at it.
Rebecca (PS586) [5974] Oh God,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5975] So, she is finding it hard.
Rebecca (PS586) [5976] Yeah.
[5977] I bet she is.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5978] So erm,sh I don't know, she might be alright.
[5979] She's not said about me being out of it, but erm, see if you do that, you see, you get a year in France.
Rebecca (PS586) [5980] Really?
[5981] That's like your brother, he's doing Spanish isn't he?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5982] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5983] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5984] He's doing Spanish.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5985] Is he? [...] take a year out.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5986] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5987] [...] start a new job as well, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5988] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5989] like he doesn't know if he's [...] going on a bit at the moment, he's just wandering about,
Rebecca (PS586) [5990] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5991] [...] we'll see.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5992] But I don't know what she's gonna do.
[5993] But erm, I haven't seen much of her at all this week, because erm, they've all been out, I mean, they went up to London to see Miss Saigon, and they were gonna go out for a meal up there, and
Rebecca (PS586) [5994] Bloody hell, that takes some money, don't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5995] Yeah, but they've got it.
Rebecca (PS586) [5996] Yeah, exactly.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5997] You know, she's got fifty quid coming in every week.
Rebecca (PS586) [5998] Yeah, that's true.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [5999] Plus a grant.
Rebecca (PS586) [6000] Yeah, she's well away.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6001] [...] has she.
[6002] She can afford to do that.
[6003] So they went up there and did that, and then, I ca they've done quite a lot and then they're going up London tomorrow, I think.
[6004] So I don't see much of her.
Rebecca (PS586) [6005] So you think they'll probably stay up there next weekend?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6006] Don't know.
[6007] I'll see, I might, might go out tomorrow instead of Sunday.
[6008] I don't know yet, I don't know [...] .
Rebecca (PS586) [6009] What's happening about your car, is Craig going to take it back with him?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6010] Well, I suppose he might as well, I mean, if you're off work, he might as well have it, mightn't he?
Rebecca (PS586) [6011] Yeah, that's true.
[6012] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6013] Unless I feel like being really vindictive,
Rebecca (PS586) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6014] saying, I want the car.
[6015] No.
[6016] I don't need it.
[6017] I could have done with it, I couldn't get on the bloo they got this internal bus service that runs from each college, cos you have to go to the other colleges for your lectures, and I just sort, there's not enough, and you, you get turned away, and I just thought, I went for that bus Tuesday morning, I was supposed to get it at eight fifteen, and he just said sorry, [mimicking] no more room [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6018] Oh no, so what happens then?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6019] So, security guard came over, and if you go up to the next stop, [...] bus, you could come in with them.
[6020] So we got on that bus, and he didn't like it, this bus driver, [mimicking] oh, you're not supposed to be on here []
Rebecca (PS586) [6021] What, because you hadn't parked your cars there first?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6022] Yeah, but the thing is, we're not from [...] college, so that means their students are gonna be, like, pushed out.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6023] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6024] So anyway, we got on, and he
Rebecca (PS586) [6025] Well, that's their problem, they should get more bloody buses.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6026] Yeah, yeah, yeah, the thing was, because it left about fifteen minutes later, at a quarter past eight, there was so much difference in traffic,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6027] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6028] half eight, getting on quarter to nine, it was jam-packed and I didn't get into the college.
[6029] It's a ten minute bus ride.
[6030] I didn't get into that college until gone half nine.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6031] Oh, really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6032] To my lecture.
[6033] Yeah, I didn't walk in till half nine.
[6034] The lecture starts at nine.
[6035] And the bus left at a quarter past eight.
[6036] Hour and a quarter.
[6037] I could have travelled home.
Rebecca (PS586) [6038] Yeah.
[6039] Bloody hell.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6040] Honestly, it was just sitting there, we were just not moving.
[6041] Well, you probably know what it's like, I was just sitting there.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6042] Is it, is your parking permit saying what college you're at?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6043] Yeah, I have to.
[6044] I'm not allowed to park in their colleges, other colleges.
[6045] See what I mean?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6046] Yeah. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6047] So I can't drive there
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6048] [laughing] Said you can't get on the bus either [] . [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6049] No.
[6050] That's what I said.
[6051] Well, the good thing is, where Southlands is, which is on the south [...] which is a very nice area.
[6052] Well, it's not that nice, but there's a hell of a lot of little roads, all around it, it's not a like Roundtree is, is it?
[6053] It's just on a little main road, but it's situated almost in this housing estate.
[6054] They must say, God they must get pissed off with it, so I've already looked around, and there's loads of parking places,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6055] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6056] there's no yellow lines, there's loads of little roads.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6057] That's true.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6058] I mean, I could park it there, if Nicole didn't want to drive.
[6059] But the, the bus, the erm ... staggered.
[6060] You got a bus at eight fifteen, and you got another bus at one o'clock, and you got another bus at three o'clock, and another bus at six
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6061] You serious?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6062] and, and if you wanna come home, there's supposed to be a bus at half past four, and our lecture finished at quarter to four, so you like, three quarters of an hour to get to the bus, right, and then it didn't turn up.
[6063] So we had to wait for the next bus, which was six o'clock.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6064] Oh no.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6065] It's a long time.
[6066] We were sitting like this, sitting on the pavement, with our umbrellas up [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6067] Imagine what it'd be like, when it's really cold.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6068] And I thought to myself, oh gosh, just drive up there,
Rebecca (PS586) [6069] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6070] it's only a ten minute drive.
Rebecca (PS586) [6071] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6072] I picked the right time.
[6073] See that's the thing, if I wanna go and do my studying, I can't just go, I have to ... and, and dinner starts at erm, if I've got a lecture, my lecture is sort of one o'clock.
[6074] Just before one o'clock and the bus goes at five past one.
[6075] So I haven't got time to get any dinner.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6076] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6077] See what I mean?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6078] Well, what about [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6079] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6080] So I have to get a bit, er jump on the bus, and then erm, either get something to eat at their college, but then, by that time, you see, cos dinner starts at quarter to twelve, it's all gone.
[6081] And we went there last time, and all they had left was chips and this fatty stew.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6082] Er, that's [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6083] And that's it.
[6084] No veggies or nothing, no salad.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6085] [mimicking] No veggies []
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6086] No.
Rebecca (PS586) [6087] Oh dear
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6088] So, it's, alright it's not a major problem, but that's the only difficulty with it is it's not, it's good having the bus service where you don't have to pay, right, if you don't, like I didn't realize the bus went at five past one, and I was all ready to go, and er, it was ten past one, and I thought, oh no, so I had to wait till three o'clock.
[6089] Do some work. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6090] That's a bit silly really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6091] Yeah, and then the next bus from six o'clock, is eight o'clock.
[6092] And that's the last bus home.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6093] You would have thought these buses would [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6094] It's only a ten minute, it's about a ten minute journey from Digby to Southlands.
[6095] Fifteen to Southlands to Whiteland.
[6096] It's all round in a circle, it's not like then, I don't know why.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6097] How peculiar.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6098] Yeah, it is a bit of a pain.
[6099] But the people who [...] Q T S course, have got a lot of work.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6100] Have they?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6101] Mm, much more than me.
[6102] I'm glad I'm not doing that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6103] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6104] Loads of assignments have been set already.
[6105] They're really quite heavily bogged down, and they were to do them all, er one day at school.
Rebecca (PS586) [6106] Really, bloody hell.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6107] Yeah the teachers seem to do nothing do they?
Rebecca (PS586) [6108] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6109] I mean, Ann finished lectures, Ann's finished lectures yesterday, she's a secondary teacher and she doesn't have a lecture again until after Christmas.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6110] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6111] And she's got another two weeks off now, until she goes into schools and then she's in the schools full-time, but even so, she won't have, she didn't have exams.
[6112] She had exams last January, didn't she, and she hasn't had exams since last January, she won't have until next ... during June.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6113] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6114] And like, she has, like, although she's doing secondary teaching, she has it easier than anybody.
Rebecca (PS586) [6115] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6116] At this stage, anyway.
[6117] I mean, it'll probably get harder.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6118] I wouldn't mind doing that, if there was, if I could do secondary teaching.
Rebecca (PS586) [6119] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6120] Mm.
[6121] But I wouldn't wanna do primary or junior, just [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6122] Well do, would you be, is it T T S, secondary, T T S, weren't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6123] No, but [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6124] [...] primary
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6125] Well, in T T S
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6126] T T S they can't do secondary.
[6127] Only do primary and junior.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6128] Oh, no in, in our college they're doing secondary.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6129] Cos I asked them about it, and they said [...] I'd much rather be doing that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6130] Mm, yeah I would really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6131] Small ones, I just don't think there's much, get much out of it get much, getting much out of it.
Rebecca (PS586) [6132] I mean, some, some people at our [...] section which is four and five year olds.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6133] It's not bad.
Rebecca (PS586) [6134] It's like being in a play-group, innit?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6135] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6136] It's like taking [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6137] Yeah.
[6138] But they don't, they don't do it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [sneeze]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6139] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [6140] Have you found out when the [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6141] Yes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6142] When is it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6143] February. [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [6144] You've got to have one before then.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6145] That's when you said.
Rebecca (PS586) [6146] You've got to have one in November.
[6147] Surely they did have one last year, didn't they their outing.
[6148] Kerry would have had one.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6149] Well, I looked at my list and it says [...] February, and I've got a list of my lectures for every week.
Rebecca (PS586) [6150] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6151] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [6152] That sounds odd though, surely.
[6153] Does [...] have one?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6154] Next term's a long term as well.
Rebecca (PS586) [6155] Is it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6156] We did agree to meet, but I don't [...] same time tomorrow.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6157] And I asked him I said, what does this reading week mean, and he went, oh, just do what you want, really.
Rebecca (PS586) [6158] Cos I've got a reading week in three we two weeks, two weeks.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6159] I don't know when it is.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6160] I've got a reading week in two weeks.
[6161] Yeah, I've got a week off.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6162] Oh.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6163] Well, I'll ask Ian, they, they might not have told us, because, I don't know, they would have told us, wouldn't they?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6164] They should do really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6165] I've got a list of every lecture on my booklet.
[6166] They give you a booklet for each subject, and I've got a list, a lec a lecture every week, until February, when it just says reading week.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6167] Oh, perhaps you have got leave.
[6168] It does seem odd.
[6169] Claire has a lot longer term than us.
[6170] I think it's ridiculous, really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6171] Mine are twelve week terms.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6172] I think ours is only eleven, that's what we was told.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6173] Mine are twelve.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6174] I thought it was thirteen, was it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6175] Twelve, twelve and twelve.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6176] Could be.
Rebecca (PS586) [6177] No, it's not, it's not as long as thirteen.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6178] Yours is on eight.
[6179] You got an eight week term.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6180] Yeah, we've got an eight week term, the last term's eight weeks.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6181] So long to Christmas.
Anne (PS6RW) [6182] Cos your the last ones [...] aren't you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6183] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6184] What was I saying?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6185] Seems odd, I'm sure he showed me, he showed me a reading week before Christmas.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6186] That's like what I think mine says.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6187] Tight.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6188] I'm sure we should.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6189] Mind you ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6190] I'll ask him, cos he'll know.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6191] Perhaps I [...] I should.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6192] Yeah, it is due, I'm sure it's due.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6193] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6194] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6195] Two weeks' time, we've got a week off.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6196] I haven't even looked, cos I don't even, I haven't even thought about it, you know.
[6197] Everyone else keeps going on about it, and all like, oh, I can't go home, cos there's not enough [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6198] Last year, reading week was, it seemed for ages, wasn't it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6199] It did, didn't it, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6200] It seemed weird, it was so, [cough] oh, it's nearly November, I'm getting worried.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6201] That's alright.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6202] It's nearly Christmas.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6203] Oh, that's alright.
Rebecca (PS586) [6204] Half my year's gonna be gone, and I'm sort of, going for the third year, and it's really heavy.
[6205] Oh.
[6206] It's going so quick.
[6207] But erm ... I'm sure you're right. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6208] Maybe I have done, maybe it's just not printing it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6209] They normally have one a year, they probably just haven't edited up.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6210] We had two though, didn't we?
[6211] Didn't we have one la in the second year, [laugh] or something, I'm sure we did.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6212] We didn't Rebecca.
Rebecca (PS586) [6213] Oh, didn't we [laugh] oh, that's what it is, then, you get yours in February.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6214] That's what I'm saying to you.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6215] Ah, bit silly though, innit, starting [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6216] I'm sure we had another reading week.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6217] Oh, shit, you're just like me, you are.
[6218] I swear blue in the face that I'm right, and then somebody comes on and goes [laugh] oh yeah.
[6219] Well, put it this way, if it isn't on Sunday,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]

Anne (PS6RW) [6454] Mhm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6455] Jane said that last week, cos I thought it was a disco, cos when it first described it me, it was real crap, and there was this colour guy and his friend, and all they wanted to play was [...] black, they looked like they got no bones when they were dancing.
[6456] You know like, dislocated themselves.
[6457] It's really
Rebecca (PS586) [6458] Really, oh no.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6459] And in fact, all they played all night.
[6460] The funny thing was, I find this really amusing, the bloke who was running the disco, he was putting loads of records on, then going dancing. [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [6461] Really, excellent.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6462] How was he doing that?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6463] Yeah, he really did, and the record would end, and then he'd plonk back.
[6464] So they were just playing the music that they liked.
[6465] It was only those two dancing all night. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6466] Oh, what.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6467] That's what made it so obvious, because it was, he would put the records on, and then come out and start dancing, and I thought I'm not going that [...] No, they played that,sh what's it, shake, shake, shake the room, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6468] [...] bought that.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6478] Is she?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6479] She's got tickets.
[6480] That's the trouble, but we got a note through the door this morning from our friend Kerry.
[6481] Don't buy the Take That tickets.
[6482] I'll explain later, [laughing] and she's [...] last night [] .
Rebecca (PS586) [6483] Oh no.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6484] I think it's really funny, cos it's thirty quid she's spent on two tickets, and she's telling us, she's got no money.
[6485] She's spent fifteen quid on her tickets for the concert.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6486] Oh, shit.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6487] She's bought the C D of them, this week, and I'm just like, oh my God.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6488] Does she really like them, then?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6489] Well.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6490] I think she's somebody that just like, has to go with the flow, with what her friends are doing, and all her friends back home are really seriously into them.
Rebecca (PS586) [6491] Really?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6492] I just think what a load of rubbish.
Rebecca (PS586) [6493] How old is she?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6494] [laughing] She's twenty [] . [laugh]
Anne (PS6RW) [6495] Blimey.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6496] Yeah, but I thought Take That was for twelve year olds.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6497] Well, it is, innit.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Anne (PS6RW) [...]

Rebecca (PS586) [6501] Ah, she's sad, ain't she?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6502] Oh yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6503] I bet Kerry likes them, don't she?
Anne (PS6RW) [6504] She is a sad person, anyway.
Rebecca (PS586) [6505] That's true.
[6506] Too true.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6507] Does Kerry like Take That any more, or has she gone off them?
Anne (PS6RW) [6508] I don't know really.
[6509] Trouble is [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6510] You don't communicate any more, do you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6511] No, she's a bit odd, Kerry, listening to the Rolling Stones and U B Forty.
[6512] Bit out her ... [...] ain't she?

[6522] You have to go and knock on her door, cos she can't hear you shouting.
[6523] [shouting] Is it loud [] ?
[6524] Yeah.
Anne (PS6RW) [6525] She's got to, to, I mean, she could have it that loud at ten o'clock at night, she just doesn't, she doesn't think.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6526] She doesn't realize that everyone else is in bed ... asleep.

Rebecca (PS586) [6533] I kept telling her to take it off [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6534] She said it was new, so
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6535] But she said, I can't be bothered.

[6830] [laugh] You put my light off, I don't like that, you put my off.
[6831] My mummy doesn't like that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6832] [...] that, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6833] [mimicking] I tell my mummy of you.
[6834] Mummy [] Bit of a squealer.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6835] Yeah, I suppose she has to be with Ryan [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6836] Ryan tried to push her down, and get her to fall downstairs the other day.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6837] No. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6838] [...] step one forward more, edging her away, telling her to balance on them.
[6839] [laugh] [...] not very nice is it?
Rebecca (PS586) [6840] They're little shits like that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6841] Ah, but then there's quite a big gap though, really.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6842] Oh, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6843] It's hardly surprising.
[6844] I mean, Mark used to pick on me rotten, and he was only four years older than me.
Rebecca (PS586) [6845] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6846] So, like Ryan's, what, nearly ten, ten years older than her.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6847] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [6848] Yeah, I'm sorry, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6849] Well, Ryan's not ... [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6850] He just gets stressed out with her.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6851] He does, he does.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6852] [...] niggles now and then.
Rebecca (PS586) [6853] Yeah, she, she.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6854] Like I've him at, watched him a few times, she goes, [shouting] get off [] he says, [shouting] what []
Rebecca (PS586) [6855] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6856] he's old enough to carry it off, [laugh] but me mum says to her, now ... erm, she says like what, what do you do Marie, if he's annoying you, and she goes like that [...] she goes [...] Ryan's [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6857] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6858] He's like, [shouting] no I don't [] she's like [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6859] Leave her alone.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6860] Do you want to go and get something to eat, then.
[6861] I know you're all hungry.
Rebecca (PS586) [6862] Yeah, I've got to go out in half an hour, actually.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6863] Have you?
Rebecca (PS586) [6864] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6865] What shall we do?
Rebecca (PS586) [6866] Got to go and sell some tickets.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6867] [...] ah, it was alright, er, it was a bit, David did a good performance, erm, and there was this boy in the first year, and he was apparently been turned down by Lambda Do you know who Lambda are, I don't even know who they are.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6868] [...] was it RADA?
Rebecca (PS586) [6869] No, it's not RADA.
[6870] It's Lambda [...] I think it's like RADA.
[6871] And he's meant to be really hip shit, shit hot good.
[6872] But erm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6873] Well, if he was turned down by RADA he can't be that good, so
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6874] Erm, he acts like he think he is. [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6875] I don't know whether he was turned down by them, or he turned them down, or something, I don't know.
[6876] He's meant to be really good.
[6877] And he was a little, he was like,try really trying to prove himself as an actor, I don't know, bit over the top,
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6878] Oh God.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6879] and I thought to myself, Oh God.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6880] Yes, yeah, he's that sort.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6881] But that's not so bad.
[6882] The good thing about it was, [cough] it was only on for about an hour.
[6883] Excuse me.
[6884] An hour and a quarter.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6885] Was it?
Rebecca (PS586) [6886] Yeah, which was good.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6887] Ah.
Rebecca (PS586) [6888] So erm, that was quite good.
[6889] Because it didn't last very long.
[6890] But it was after [...] so it wasn't really ...
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6891] Yeah, too taxing.
Rebecca (PS586) [6892] No, it wasn't too taxing on the old brain.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6893] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [6894] So no, no, it was alright.
[6895] Erm, got back here about quarter past nine, which was great, cos it meant I could watch One Foot in the Grave.
[6896] And [...] that
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6897] [...] that one really annoyed me last night, that did.
Rebecca (PS586) [6898] Did it?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6899] I can't stand it, I felt sorry for him.
[6900] I end up feeling sorry [laughing] for him every time I watch it []
Rebecca (PS586) [6901] Yeah, I do.
[6902] Do you watch that Clive?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6903] No, I don't [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [6904] Oh, it is good.
[6905] What about Absolutely Fabulous.
[6906] Did you see that?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6907] Yeah. [...]

None (KPVPS003) [6908] And do your exams on the first of our work ... in June.
Rebecca (PS586) [6909] Bells!
None (KPVPS003) [6910] Usually write about, the best thing, now if you call the register erm ... here.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6911] In the classroom?
None (KPVPS003) [6912] Classroom.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [6913] Actually it's behind Liz.
None (KPVPS000) [6914] Yeah, it's here.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6915] Yeah me.
None (KPVPS003) [6916] Okay.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6917] Cairan [...]
None (KPVPS003) [6918] So, but ... we've gotta find it out.
Rebecca (PS586) [6919] Why? [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [6920] So erm
Rebecca (PS586) [6921] It's intact.
None (KPVPS003) [6922] Okay.
[6923] ... Further announcement is that ... due to popular demand there are four extra tickets ... for the Winter's Tale.
[6924] So, if you didn't get your act together last week ... and you want to go to the matinee performance of Winter's Tale on the third of November [...] .
[6925] Erm
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [6926] [...] [keeps shuffling microphone around] the tickets were so they want tickets but they haven't actually sent any money, so if you get in before them ... erm, you can have the tickets.
[6927] Especially whoever pays their money first.
[6928] It's five pounds ... Thursday the third of November, a matinee performance of A Winter's Tale.
[6929] There's ... er already about twenty people going.
[6930] Erm ... I have ... the other [...] .
[6931] Erm ... if you want to come along to [...] ... it's a black comedy.
[6932] Ya.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6933] Mhm.
None (KPVPS003) [6934] Cairan?
None (KPVPS000) [6935] Yes?
None (KPVPS003) [6936] Difficult aren't they?
None (KPVPS000) [6937] Aha.
None (KPVPS003) [6938] That's why I'm gonna say now ... why?
[6939] What makes reading Johnson ... so difficult?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS000) [6940] [clears throat] ... The language.
None (KPVPS003) [6941] Okay.
[6942] ... I don't know what, we can just talk about the language
Inga (PS6RY) [clears throat]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6943] You have to look up every second word. [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [6944] Okay.
[6945] Well I guess, look at every second word.
[6946] What ... what bothers you?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6947] It's just, it's just so erm specialized.
None (KPVPS003) [6948] Right.
[6949] Okay.
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [6950] Cos it's specialized.
[6951] And by that, you mean?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6952] Well just ... well if, because it's all ... a lot of it's to do with this alca alchemical
None (KPVPS003) [6953] Okay.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6954] alchemal ... whatever it's called.
None (KPVPS003) [6955] Specialized.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6956] The process.
None (KPVPS003) [6957] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6958] Which I'd know nothing about, er but just ... highly specialized in itself.
None (KPVPS003) [6959] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6960] And every, every word that I ... stumbled on
None (KPVPS003) [6961] Mm mm.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6962] and when I looked it up it had about six other words to go with it.
None (KPVPS003) [6963] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6964] D'ya know what I mean?
[6965] And, and obviously it was ridiculous, every second word I was having to look up and then I'd get all that and it moves onto the next one.
None (KPVPS003) [6966] Yep.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6967] Which is ridiculous.
None (KPVPS003) [6968] Anybody had
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [6969] this experience?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [6970] Erm ... okay, the first word was erm ... it talked about alchemy.
[6971] Any other problems with the language?
[6972] Either ... other areas where it's very specialized and you had to look up words, or other difficulties with the
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6973] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [6974] language?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6975] It's not everyday English.
None (KPVPS003) [6976] It's not everyday English.
[6977] What at the moment, at th right, so a lot of, erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [6978] Yeah.
[6979] Ah but that is a good distinction.
[6980] [laugh] ... Stereo.
[6981] Erm ... ahead ... in the sense that
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6982] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [6983] we're used to a lot of Shakespeare's archaisms because he was studying them at A level and Shakespeare's got so a special sort of band of them that he uses.
[6984] Even so, I ... they can go and look up that lot of words in Shakespeare.
[6985] But Johnson ... they're often old words ... that are totally out of use ... erm ... and ... we're not even used to Johnson's vocabulary because
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [6986] it's not taught in schools.
[6987] At least not part ... the mainstream part of our culture.
[6988] Any other reasons for the language difficulty?
[6989] Or that the speech is difficult or the, any, any reason that there's a, a page that's difficult to read?
Inga (PS6RY) [6990] Er, it strikes me with the, with the comedy, he's trying to be so funny that he shoots off at all these angles and not having
None (KPVPS003) [6991] Aha.
Inga (PS6RY) [6992] left, sort of boundaries.
None (KPVPS003) [6993] Okay.
[6994] So ... erm ... well, you might like to say that
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [6995] Mm mm mm mm.
None (KPVPS003) [6996] he's very ... fast ... er, deduced ... comedy.
[6997] There's a lot going on ... at a very fast speed.
[6998] Which makes
Ann (PS5AF) [6999] Well I thought it was quite farce like.
None (KPVPS003) [7000] Sorry?
Ann (PS5AF) [7001] I've seen the play and I thought it was quite like a farce.
[7002] You know
None (KPVPS003) [7003] Yeah.
Ann (PS5AF) [7004] like
None (KPVPS003) [7005] Okay.
[7006] But
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7007] this is rather what ... what it, makes it difficult is that ... I had a copy as well farce ... right, but don't say farcical.
[7008] That's got different meanings.
[7009] Er, like farce ... okay?
[7010] As in this.
[7011] ... Any other things that made it ... made it difficult for you to read?
[7012] ... So it's only the language?
[7013] The language, if it had been translated in modern language there'd be no, no problem?
[7014] Were there are any reasons?
None (KPVPS002) [7015] It's supposed to be a play, I suppose you have to watch it.
[7016] When we were reading it I found that I was just reading it as a book and the ... and that all the coming about you forget who's in, who's there and who's not there.
None (KPVPS003) [7017] Yeah.
[7018] ... Right?
[7019] Yeah.
[7020] More, again, much more by the shape of it, an intensely visual dramatic play, that relies on you being able to see
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7021] spatially ... in terms of space ... on the ... stage.
[7022] People knocking on doors, people hiding behind things, people coming on in costume.
[7023] You know, on the page you can't work out ... why erm, [...] is suddenly called ... erm ... nuns, somebody called the Captain, you know, you, you, you think these are three different characters.
[7024] On the stage you wouldn't make that mistake, you'd be able to keep track of the identity.
[7025] So, another reason ... that just adds that ... is the element of disguise.
[7026] In Shakespeare ... you know, you haven't got that many disguises going on.
[7027] And, you'd be able to get one laugh, that's the idea.
[7028] It's a modern gag idea that ... you know, Violet dressed as man or ... but in, Johnson ... ha there have numerous ... kinds of disguises, each
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7029] Mm.
None (KPVPS003) [7030] to different effect.
[7031] Each calling different people.
[7032] Okay?
[7033] Right.
[7034] We've got some idea as to why, why we found it difficult to read.
[7035] Which also help us understand the kind of comedy altogether, erm ... that [...] .
[7036] Let's see if we can refine those ... like us looking at the first two lines ... of the play.
[7037] ... Erm
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7038] [cough] ... okay.
[7039] We'll read them through and pause for a while and try to think of the, also in terms of the physical, you know, erm ... staging.
[7040] Erm ... okay, who's gonna be Face?
[7041] I'll have ... Jo as Face ... I'll have Monica as ... Sottle, and we'll have ... Mia as Don.
[7042] Okay?
[7043] Just the first
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7044] Mhm.
None (KPVPS003) [7045] ten or twenty lines.
[7046] Right, off you go.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7047] [reading play] At least I will. [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7048] [reading] How are your wits?
[7049] Why don't you run for us?
None (KPVPS001) [7050] [reading] Oh don't be ridiculous!
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7051] What to do, a little bit of pantomime.
None (KPVPS001) [7052] Ro rode out of the woods tonight.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7053] No don't keep suffering [...] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7054] Forever while she breathes I'll go and see ... and fetch some water, will you come?
None (KPVPS001) [7055] Will you have the [...] ? [...] betrayal.
[7056] Hark!
[7057] I hear somebody.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7058] Yeah.
[7059] I shall mar all of that he has made and foraged.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7060] This way!
[7061] This way!
None (KPVPS001) [7062] Why?
[7063] Who am I then my love?
[7064] Who am I?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7065] I'll tell you, since you know about yourself.
None (KPVPS001) [7066] Did you know [...] ?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7067] Yes she belongs to time not long past.
[7068] The good honest [...] that kept your master's worship house when he requires [...] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7069] Will you please go out?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7070] Since [...] translated so that I'll be the Captain.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7071] By your needs such as those [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7072] With the amount of my money all this must [...] [] .
None (KPVPS001) [7073] [...] [] .
None (KPVPS003) [7074] Okay, we'll sto stop there.
[7075] Now ... even in that had a fairly dry reading through.
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7076] Are there any things you want to add to that list, just looking at that?
[7077] Di different language and er, and what's going on.
Inga (PS6RY) [7078] Yeah.
[7079] In [...] I think ... the people were speaking faster.
None (KPVPS003) [...] [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7080] Alright.
Inga (PS6RY) [7081] You, looking through it and almost laughing at the [...] .
None (KPVPS003) [7082] Right.
[7083] I think that ... almost [...] , we've got another ... aspect of ... erm ... [writing on board] comedy, comedy ... it's really on the basis of arguments, fighting ... complication between people.
[7084] Which, as you quite rightly say ... you really need to hear, hear the voices going on.
[7085] [...] ... and I'll get some people
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7086] along the middle in a moment and, and do it.
[7087] Any, any other things?
[7088] Did anybody snigger on anything
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7089] No.
None (KPVPS003) [7090] in those thirty lines?
[7091] Come on, there are rude words in there.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7092] I mean
Inga (PS6RY) [7093] I grinned at farts.
None (KPVPS003) [7094] Good!
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7095] Okay.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7096] Brunt, and a bit of a [...] at the moment.
[7097] Erm
Inga (PS6RY) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7098] I mean Shakespeare did not, correct me if I'm wrong, use words like fart and, certainly doesn't use words like fuel gauge, have a leg over things like that, and things like, okay?
[7099] So it's rude language.
[7100] Which is funny.
[7101] I mean, we are all er very sympathetic at the end of the twentieth century, but, you know, we can still laugh when somebody says fart on stage.
[7102] Erm ... there are other examples of that.
[7103] You'll be glad to know that ... in line four and five, [reading play] What to do?
[7104] Lick figs out of my [] ... he's actually saying lick piles ... from my ... and, you know the audience replies ... fig ... fig [...] .
[7105] And the actor could, you know, draw attention the part of the anatomy he's talking about.
[7106] I mean, this is not
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7107] this is not his sense of humour but it is visual, it involves the audience.
[7108] Like, if you break off a line like, lick figs out of my ... something, you're getting the audience going because the audience is supplying the ... rude bits.
[7109] Okay?
[7110] ... Any other ... things that were a problem about that clip?
[7111] ... Okay.
[7112] Forget that funniness.
[7113] Why is it different from Shakespeare?
[7114] What's the difference between that opening scene ... and say the opening scene ... in Twelfth Night or Winter's Tale?
[7115] Were they di different?
None (KPVPS002) [7116] There's no asides ... view.
None (KPVPS003) [7117] Right.
[7118] That's another problem actually I hadn't thought of that.
[7119] It's all ... but everybody's ... erm ... everybody's involved from the word go, so ... and the structure the ... so think about that point.
[7120] No, are no asides.
[7121] Erm ... I suppose there are later on in the play er th ... characters speak to each other and say very good that stupid berk over there kind of aside, but ... what you don't get is ... any structures of characters ... as such.
[7122] You never get told what different characters are like ... in th er by somebody else.
[7123] You don't get introduced to characters, you don't plunge ... straight in.
[7124] Er ... yeah, I have thought of ... a very different one.
[7125] I mean they don't, er, in the middle of things.
None (KPVPS002) [7126] You're not really given any background either.
None (KPVPS003) [7127] Yeah.
[7128] So
None (KPVPS002) [7129] Shakespeare always usually gives you a bit of ... you know, you just got the two gentleman speaking clear and [...] .
None (KPVPS003) [7130] Yeah.
[7131] Exactly.
[7132] And we accept those things.
[7133] You know, give us a chance to get into the play and get comfortable on our feet and we'll have a go, well, Johnson doesn't give you that option does he?
[7134] It's straight in there ... there's a fight between three, two men and a woman, you don't know what's going on, they're just abusing each other and ... and the picture
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7135] is there.
[7136] Now Johnson it brilliant for doing abuse.
[7137] There's this ... wonderful put down.
[7138] I'll have [...] please.
[7139] [...] . Erm ... okay.
[7140] So in a very different world to that of Shakespearean comedy, a must harsher abrasive ... world ... erm ... again th ... that bit where she's ge get [...] , do I get the impression that most of you found yours much more difficult to get into
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7141] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7142] than Shakespeare?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7143] Yeah.
Inga (PS6RY) [7144] Mm mm.
None (KPVPS003) [7145] Yeah?
[7146] Does anybody ... have this ... [...] ?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7147] Er, mm
Inga (PS6RY) [7148] Erm, I found it was like reading Shakespeare when I first started reading Shakespeare.
None (KPVPS000) [7149] Yeah.
Inga (PS6RY) [7150] Cos it's ... I think, different types.
None (KPVPS000) [7151] Yeah.
Inga (PS6RY) [7152] You get used to Shakespeare.
None (KPVPS003) [7153] Yeah.
Inga (PS6RY) [7154] It's, it's, you get used to the way he works.
None (KPVPS003) [7155] Okay, I think, I think that is, that is a point.
[7156] Again, that came up this morning as well.
[7157] That
Inga (PS6RY) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7158] Shakespeare's so central to our heritage i you learn him at O level, you learn him at A level, you get used to him.
[7159] Erm ... he's part of our language ... and, and therefore, you know, to go on to Johnson it's very different.
[7160] Like you say, it takes much more time to get into it.
[7161] But I think Johnson does make it harder for us.
[7162] There are no characters to get involved with ... as the there are in ... in Shakespeare.
[7163] We can't really imagine ourselves ... you don't really have sympathy for any of the characters in the [...] .
[7164] They're all ... fairly sort of silly characters.
[7165] Whereas in, in Twelfth Night or whatever, we might actually feel involved within the, the people in the play.
[7166] Certainly [...] .
[7167] Okay, well I'll leave all those up there.
[7168] Erm ... can you look at scene, act four, scene five in my edition.
[7169] Now I discovered this morning there is actually act four scene three in some people's editions.
[7170] Okay?
[7171] Erm, so act fi act four, scene five.
[7172] And the stage direction at the beginning of this, enter Doll in her bitter talking with Sir Epicure Manhom.
[7173] ... Has everybody got that scene?
[7174] Enter Doll in bitter talking with Sir Epicure Manhom.
[7175] Okay.
[7176] Can you divide yourself up into groups of four first of all please?
[7177] I'll do it for you if you, you want?
[7178] And leave a bit of space.
[7179] Right.
[7180] For those who aren't totally sort of in control of the plot ... and I probably should include myself as one of them, what's happening in this scene I want you to act out.
[7181] What's happening in this scene?
[7182] Doll ... is a prostitute, okay?
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7183] First things first.
[7184] Who is working with ... Sottle ... who's planning to be the alchemist, okay?
[7185] So he's probably fiddled a lot of things ... to get money from people.
[7186] The alchemist is getting money, I'm sorry, for people who know this ... inside out, but I'll just explain it.
[7187] Erm ... the alchemist is conning people promising them that he'll turn base metals into gold.
[7188] One of the people he's conning is Sir Epicure Manhom ... who wants a life of ease and luxury and has been giving ... the alchemist loads of money in order to tu to, to perfect this [...] and ... funny enough the alchemist hasn't managed, hasn't managed to do this, to get the person's money.
[7189] Okay.
[7190] So that's who Epicure Manhom is.
[7191] One day, when he is, somewhere back in act two, one day he is visiting the alchemist he catches sight of this woman, Doll, quite obviously a prostitute, probably an a an absolutely ... erm ... catches sight of her and says, I must quickly think up some reason why this woman is, is in the house ... cos ... Sir Epicure Manhom thinks the alchemist is a pure, homely ... er priest-like creature yet in fact, he's running a whorehouse.
[7192] Okay?
[7193] So,has ... [laughing] it's worse than Neighbours [] .
[7194] Erm, think ... erm ... so he's sort of bluffing, okay?
[7195] I'll just find a scene where he does this.
[7196] Er er ... in act two, scene three ... okay?
[7197] Er erm ... quite a long way, there's that, that line ... erm ... two twenty.
[7198] ... Okay?
[7199] Face had just realized that Sir Epicure Manhom has ... erm ... seen Doll, which he shouldn't have done, and ... Manhom calls Face out and says stay Lungs.
[7200] That's what Face is called at the moment.
[7201] [reading play] I dare not Sir.
[7202] Say man what is she [] ?
[7203] Now Face is bluffing here.
[7204] [reading] A Lord's sister sir.
[7205] [...] , pray thee stay [] .
[7206] And he sort of bluffs a bit more.
[7207] [reading] She's mad sir [] .
[7208] Still trying to explain why a Lord's sister is staying with the alchemist, okay?
[7209] [reading] She's mad sir.
[7210] Send hither, he'll be mad too.
[7211] I warrant thee, why send hither?
[7212] Sir, to be cured [] .
[7213] You know, he's, he's thinking on his feet.
[7214] He's trying to find reasons for this, this woman to be in the house.
[7215] Meanwhile Sottle off stage is more, is calling why rascal?
[7216] And Face [reading] low you hear sir [] ?
[7217] He's going out to spend some [...] .
[7218] Okay.
[7219] Manhom believes that, believes what basically?
[7220] They look, er round that line, two three five ... two three six ... and Face is saying [reading] you're very right sir.
[7221] She is a very rare scholar []
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7222] describing Doll Collan here, a whore who is seen wandering around the stage most of the time, [reading] she is the most rare scholar and has gone mad with studying Brampton's works.
[7223] And here but name a word such in a Hebrew she falls in her fit and will discourse her learned genealogies as you would run mad too to ... to hear her sir [] .
[7224] Now, so, Face is trying to sort of put off Sir Epicure Manhom by saying, you know, this a mad woman who's done too much learning ... nice little attack on women here by Johnson, who, who ... is one of the biggest misogynists in the world, erm ... a woman who's gone crazy with learning ... and who knows nothing because er she's just a prostitute and therefore she's thick.
[7225] Okay?
[7226] That's the joke.
[7227] But th again, the funny thing is, even funnier, is that ... Manhom lusts after her, gets distracted from this idea of getting all this money and sa saying, [reading] how am I going to have conference with her, Lungs [] ?
[7228] Erm ... and Face said, [reading] Oh!
[7229] [...] For a mad woman [...] ... acceptance of her [] .
[7230] Okay?
[7231] So, Face promises to get an introduction ... to this woman who Manhom fancies and erm ... and Manhom, okay.
[7232] That is the background.
[7233] Next time we see them ... they, they have met and ... and Face sends them off to have a private conference.
[7234] Okay?
[7235] So you now have act four, scene five.
[7236] Enter Doll and th they're talking.
[7237] Will you please try and act it out like we did the Twelfth Night ... the bit with Mrs , and see whether you can revive your idea of why ... Johnson, what is the nature of, of Johnson's comic art.
[7238] Okay.
[7239] But hear guffaws ... within minutes.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7240] Right.
None (KPVPS003) [7241] Do you want me to divide you up?

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7255] Well I haven't actually done it so I don't know what's going on.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7256] I've only read up to the bit where he's standing near the hooker.
Inga (PS6RY) [7257] Right.
[7258] So what's the job?
None (KPVPS000) [7259] So how much have it, have we got to read?
[7260] The whole of the thing?
[7261] It isn't that long.
Rebecca (PS586) [7262] It's about act two, scene three really.
None (KPVPS000) [7263] I've put in act four, scene five.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7264] [...] .

Rebecca (PS586) [7279] Er ... that'll be act five.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7280] [laugh] ... You're the clever one.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [reading play] [...] [] [...] [classroom chatter]
Rebecca (PS586) [7281] I only see it as that ... I don't understand her bit, I think she's just out to take the piss.
[7282] I do I'm, you know, I'm learning enough, [...] Ancient Greek.
[7283] Sorry.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
Kitty (PS6RX) [7284] Or whatever it is.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7286] Erm ... don't know, sorry.
[7287] And er, I don't know, I think it's all about skivers isn't it?
[7288] Cos as soon as they go it's all gone a bit
Rebecca (PS586) [7289] When I saw it I didn't think it was that funny.
[7290] I didn't think, you know
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7291] Yo ho ho ho!
Kitty (PS6RX) [7292] When did you see it? [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [7293] I saw it about a year and a half ago.
[7294] And I, when I read it, I hadn't looked at this [...] , but I never thought it was really, I didn't sit there going
None (KPVPS000) [7295] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7296] you know, it was
None (KPVPS000) [7297] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7298] all like, ooh!
[7299] Who's at the door?
[7300] No it's the wrong person.
[7301] Oh my God!
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7302] Oh.
Rebecca (PS586) [7303] All that sort of thing.
[7304] You know, it's like, real sort of like ... you know, a farce.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7305] It's weird. [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [7306] Yeah.
Kitty (PS6RX) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [7307] It's just like the people really.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7308] People, yeah I know.

Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7310] [...] , you know
Kitty (PS6RX) [7311] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7312] less of that.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]

None (KPVPS003) [7314] How's it going you lot?
Rebecca (PS586) [7315] Hello.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7316] Oh hello.
None (KPVPS003) [7317] Have you worked out what's going on [...] ?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7318] No. [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7319] Okay.
[7320] [laugh] ... How far have you got?
Rebecca (PS586) [7321] We've read the whole scene, but
None (KPVPS003) [7322] You've read the whole scene.
[7323] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [7324] can't remember much.
None (KPVPS003) [7325] Erm ... what ... what, what stage of [laughing] deciphering are you at [] ?
[7326] [laughing] Have you got to [] ?
Kitty (PS6RX) [7327] [laughing] [...] [] .
None (KPVPS003) [7328] Okay.
[7329] Erm ... have you got
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7330] Tricky [...] too.
None (KPVPS003) [7331] what, what Sottle is doing when he comes in on the scene?
Kitty (PS6RX) [7332] No.
Rebecca (PS586) [7333] Isn't he trying to make him feel guilty ... Manhom and this woman?
None (KPVPS003) [7334] Yes.
Rebecca (PS586) [7335] But he's er
None (KPVPS003) [7336] Yeah.
[7337] His lust for a whore.
Rebecca (PS586) [7338] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7339] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7340] And that's why, and then erm ... he's trying to put, they try and blame Manhom that ... er when the ... er furnace thing stops he, that's all his fault is what
None (KPVPS003) [7341] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7342] we thought.
None (KPVPS003) [7343] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7344] So, I can understand what's going on, but it's like when I saw it, I saw the R S C production,
None (KPVPS003) [7345] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7346] and like, and they were going, oh it's th the funniest play ever written!
None (KPVPS003) [7347] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7348] And all this lot.
[7349] And I went to see it and, you know, it was very slick ... they said, oh
None (KPVPS003) [7350] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7351] who's at the door?
[7352] No it's someone else.
[7353] Oh quick, put a [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7354] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7355] on.
None (KPVPS003) [7356] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7357] But I, I never really ... thought it was rip-roaringly funny.
None (KPVPS003) [7358] Perhaps if you don't really like farce ... as a ... as a kind of comedy then
Rebecca (PS586) [7359] I suppose, yeah I'm not really in on them.
None (KPVPS003) [7360] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7361] Cos even when I, I've been to see like, you know [...] ones I just sit there and tend to go, yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7362] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7363] Yeah.
[7364] But you've gotta either be really in them or sort of out
None (KPVPS003) [7365] Sort of back seat?
Rebecca (PS586) [7366] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7367] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7368] Very different kind of humour where ... no, I, I, unfortunately I agree with you.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7369] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7370] But I, I'm hating [...] , but I mean ... yeah I could see its cleverness.
[7371] And
Rebecca (PS586) [7372] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7373] real ... physical cleverness.
Rebecca (PS586) [7374] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7375] The staging was just brilliant!
Rebecca (PS586) [7376] Yeah, it's really visual.
None (KPVPS003) [7377] It's [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [7378] It's like when they did the erm ... you know when she comes on as a fairy
None (KPVPS003) [7379] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [7380] kingpin fairy, she sat on someone's head and she had this massive gown all over her, and that was really visual.
[7381] Erm
None (KPVPS003) [7382] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7383] he we wanted to her get off he just ran up to this erm, ladder and she just grabbed onto him, he just pulled it away.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7384] Is that [...] ?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7385] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [7386] It's really hard, yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7387] You cannot visualize something taking place.
Rebecca (PS586) [7388] It's really wordy isn't it?
[7389] It's really sort of.
None (KPVPS003) [7390] And also, I mean, so many of the, the jokes just are ... very
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7391] quick jokes.
Rebecca (PS586) [7392] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7393] They're based on maybe one word in a sentence but if you miss that, you've missed it.
[7394] And that doesn't really matter in the theatre because you carry on
Rebecca (PS586) [7395] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7396] along by the visual gags, so neither of them when
Rebecca (PS586) [7397] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7398] you're reading it, you feel you've got to ... you've got to follow the ... follow the script.
[7399] And the other thing about visual things, let's, let's say ... there is a reference to somebody having piles, but they make it a visual gag
Rebecca (PS586) [7400] Yeah.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7401] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7402] whereas on the page it is ... you know
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7403] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7404] schoolboy humour.
None (KPVPS000) [7405] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7406] You know?
Rebecca (PS586) [7407] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7408] Erm ... I mean, nevertheless, obviously it's just somebody on the [...] scene is a bit
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7409] and that free way of talking ... about pain.
[7410] And wrote it like that and published it like that.
[7411] Something that Shakespeare never did.
[7412] He didn't take anything and take it to the publishers, there you go.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7413] And he was a very conscientious playwright.
[7414] [...] . So, you know, to part like him, you've gotta resent him.
Rebecca (PS586) [7415] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [7416] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7417] That's th the lying stake.
[7418] Anyway
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7419] Well the second bit on, don't you think you reach a point where it keeps going, the actual crap, and you go, well why are they doing it then?
Kitty (PS6RX) [7420] Yeah.
None (KPVPS000) [7421] It's really shit, yes, but let's just
Rebecca (PS586) [7422] Yeah. [laugh]
None (KPVPS000) [7423] carry on and see this.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7424] Can you get it on video this one?
Rebecca (PS586) [7425] No, I don't think you can.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7426] Tt!
Rebecca (PS586) [7427] It took ages for me to be able to get a
None (KPVPS003) [7428] Well, I tried to get a video cos I wa I wanted to use this section to actually watch it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7429] Mm mm.
None (KPVPS003) [7430] And sort of stop it
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7431] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7432] Yes!
None (KPVPS003) [7433] every few minutes.
[7434] I know.
[7435] And I, I couldn't get one.
Rebecca (PS586) [7436] Tt!
[7437] Oh.
None (KPVPS003) [7438] So, it was, it was, I,a as soon as I knew I'd be teaching this I thought the only way
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7439] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7440] to get them this across is, is to actually see it.
Rebecca (PS586) [7441] Is there a video of it?
Ann (PS5AF) [7442] I don't, oh
None (KPVPS003) [7443] Apparently not, but erm
Rebecca (PS586) [7444] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7445] there may be, I just ... I went into one video shop and I asked the le erm, some people here.
Inga (PS6RY) [7446] Have you tried the library?

None (KPVPS003) [7452] Or in Twickenham?
Inga (PS6RY) [7453] Twickenham.
[7454] It's really good.
None (KPVPS003) [7455] Is it?
[7456] Oh!
Inga (PS6RY) [7457] Yeah, so join up.
None (KPVPS003) [7458] [laughing] Thanks John.

Rebecca (PS586) [7460] Plug, plug there.
Kitty (PS6RX) [7461] Yeah.
Inga (PS6RY) [7462] [laugh] ... No it's really good, you can have them for like two days and it's only a pound, it's really good.
None (KPVPS003) [7463] Oh!
Inga (PS6RY) [7464] You get everything too.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7465] Well I'll look into that one.
[7466] I think i this could be fairly crucial that you actually see it.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7467] Erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7468] if I could have your attention for a minute.
[7469] What, any other things that you'd got, but I talked to ... each group individually, erm ... but if you want to share any of your thoughts with ... everybody else ... I'm standing in the way.
[7470] Any illustrations ... for the scene we've just been doing and the things we've already been talking about, or any new ideas.
[7471] Johnson's way of doing comedy.
[7472] ... No, [...] , you got anything extra to say?
Ann (PS5AF) [7473] Er er ... only we the bit about ... how they both [...]
None (KPVPS002) [7474] The way she to
Ann (PS5AF) [7475] at the same time.
None (KPVPS002) [7476] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7477] Right.
[7478] Okay, so ... I mean they sa they all do say they'll be talking at the same time, but ... as I say,th that bit goes there.
[7479] And, oh I'm talking about this bit now in a minute
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7480] [...] not ... wrong.
None (KPVPS003) [7481] The thing to bear in mind about Johnson is that he's a very, very, self-conscious professional kind of writer.
Rebecca (PS586) [7482] [whispering] He knocked down so many other
Inga (PS6RY) [7483] He was fat.
Rebecca (PS586) [7484] ones though [] .
None (KPVPS003) [7485] He was probably fat as well.
[7486] Yeah.
[7487] He was, but in fact, he drunk far too much.
Rebecca (PS586) [7488] Sorry.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7489] It's alright.
Rebecca (PS586) [7490] Erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7491] That explains it then doesn't it?
None (KPVPS003) [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7492] Oh dear.
None (KPVPS003) [7493] [laugh] It certainly
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7494] Well he,
None (KPVPS003) [7495] would be
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7496] he, he
None (KPVPS003) [7497] that fat people only
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7498] in
None (KPVPS003) [7499] smoke.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7500] in, in, in his plays he ... he's not very nice about women because ... he was sexually frustrated.
None (KPVPS003) [7501] Oh no he wasn't.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7502] He wasn't.
Inga (PS6RY) [7503] No, no, I beg your pardon, [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [7504] [laughing] Are you talking about you John [] ?
None (KPVPS003) [7505] No.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7506] I, I feel that probably [...] professional status thing and this is not a therapy session.
[7507] Erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7508] sort of ... erm ... no,Johns Johnson a, er, an interesting sexual life ... erm ... and he's not
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7509] Very.
None (KPVPS003) [7510] frustrated.
Inga (PS6RY) [7511] Yeah?
None (KPVPS003) [7512] No.
[7513] I think, I think ... he [...]
Inga (PS6RY) [7514] Whose
None (KPVPS003) [7515] and enjoy it [...] .
Inga (PS6RY) [7516] Over there.
[7517] Someone [...] .
None (KPVPS003) [7518] So, no, no, afraid not.
[7519] Erm ... and er, but he also had a ... major drinking problem.
[7520] He was also the son of a builder ... which wasn't a particularly great thing to be in, be in England which is, you know considerably more snobby than, you know
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7521] and, what he did, set out to be, somebody who earned his living by writing, and that was a new idea.
[7522] You didn't earn anything by writing.
[7523] If you were Shakespeare
Rebecca (PS586) [7524] Sorry.
None (KPVPS003) [7525] you got a protection from an aristocratic person who, who looked after you, and he wrote not by his [...] .
[7526] Johnson said no, I'm gonna write these plays, I'm gonna earn money for them, and then I'm gonna publish them, I'll earn money from the publication.
[7527] So he did a whole edition, a folio volume about that big, and that's the kind of volume that the bible be published in, it shows sort of what ... weight was attached to this ... erm ... and he published his plays.
[7528] Now, plays in that stage were the things that were ... performed two or three times then forgotten, here is Johnson saying, no, I'm gonna write down all my plays, I'm gonna publish them, you're gonna read them ... you're gonna read them as if they were learned things.
[7529] He'd got this great idea of a type of an author.
[7530] Now, at this [...] you may not have sympathy for that ... but ... it's significant in circles I've seen that you just don't ... [...] ... that Johnson has bothered ... to write out ... exactly how that play should be acted out, he's trying to stay in control of his plays.
[7531] Shakespeare, we don't know what Shakespeare wanted ... to do on stage, he doesn't give you any idea ... at all.
[7532] Johnson wants us to know exactly how his plays should be staged, he's a ... he's an actor's ... playwright.
[7533] He's somebody cares about how actors can ... form actually on a stage, what's possible.
[7534] He, he explores every single dramatic possibility.
[7535] Okay.
[7536] Let's get on with it.
[7537] Erm ... this group also mentioned, and ... other people did as well just that acting plays is dramatic irony.
[7538] I mean there is that biography ... as soon as she gets disguised.
[7539] But it's just so, it's just the driving force really ... in this whole play ... that the audience ... knows what's going on.
[7540] And then other characters, erm, particular, other characters don't.
[7541] Any other things?
[7542] Did your group come up with anything ... new Bob?
[7543] No?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7544] You lot?
[7545] Come up with anything new?
[7546] No?
[7547] You can't do any better than this?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7548] No.
None (KPVPS003) [7549] Well there's a couple of things I will, I'll, I'll add then before we're shutting up about this.
[7550] One is ... I don't know whether any, any of you noticed but ... come to that part when I reached this book, and the whole load of jokes on this page are topical ... they'll be appreciated by the audience at the time.
[7551] There are political jokes
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7552] there are jokes about other plays, there are jokes about ... bits of London ... it's topical.
[7553] Okay?
[7554] That's another reason that Johnson is much harder to understand than Shakespeare.
[7555] It's great for people like me who do research into ... politics and literature because ... you know, Johnson's like a key to ev whatever he's thinking at the time.
[7556] Johnson's making a gag about it, you know, everybody wants to learn about it, but for us ... it's much more difficult in, in the twentieth century.
[7557] Erm ... the other one, that I wanted to bring up in this, the reason I suppose, the second one to remember, is the idea of satire.
[7558] And, for the sake of brevity I'm gonna give you some [laughing] definitions [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7559] Oh.
None (KPVPS003) [7560] Do people mind me just ... telling you things?
[7561] No?
[7562] Okay.
[7563] Say so, I mean ... you don't have to do this.
[7564] Er, when ... oh well, okay.
[7565] Everybody got ... an idea
Rebecca (PS586) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7566] of all this [...] is going? ... [cough]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7567] Ooh dear!
None (KPVPS003) [7568] Okay.
[7569] Johnson, just debating, we're getting on to the whole idea of Johnson's world [...] ... and the link ... though it worked out the same I'd say.
[7570] Okay.
[7571] The link is satire.
[7572] Okay.
[7573] Now this is a simplified construction, somewhat.
[7574] Two basic definitions.
[7575] One ... the oldest ... which comes from pre-Roman times, okay?
[7576] Means, basically, thespian merrymaking.
[7577] With any sort of ... thespian ... celebration ... and this is pre-Roman okay?
[7578] ... Perhaps involving ... you know, the leaders of the village becoming servants and servants becoming leaders, or women dressing up as men or ... you know happy.
[7579] All these things go on as a
Inga (PS6RY) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7580] [...] for the evenings.
[7581] Erm ... the other one is ... Roman, which is one that some of you, I hope, will be a bit familiar with ... and ... a highly cultivated ... kind of literary tact.
[7582] ... What brings both of these together basically, and this, if you want, is your working definition is ... is thought of ... attack through ... mockery.
[7583] Okay?
[7584] So it's like you're attacking something ... through mockery.
[7585] It can be, sort of, for festive purposes, you're just poking fun at the priest or something
Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7586] erm ... then you'd probably spring over there, you know what I mean.
[7587] Erm ... but in Roman style it's a highly cultivated kind of literary attack.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7588] Okay.
[7589] Both these kinds are inter-related ... so, that's really a sort of quite an artificial ... separation.
[7590] And, the tricky thing about satire ... there's a lot more
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7591] to be said about definitions but, particularly satire, is it's very difficult to distinguish satire from other types of comedy.
[7592] Like with irony, remember the first week? [...] , which I'll never forget it, tried to
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7593] erm ... make me explain the difference between irony and sarcasm.
[7594] And I was still worrying about it.
[7595] Waking up at night ... I can't actually differentiate between the two very easily.
[7596] Erm ... I bore people, I might be at a dinner, I say look, what about irony and sarcasm?
[7597] Anyway, after I've [...]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7598] This is true.
[7599] This has become very sick.
[7600] Erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7601] his idea of satire actually [laughing] is [] ... erm, if I hear satire, it's another one of those slippery things, you know ... where does ... begin?
[7602] And where does comedy end?
[7603] Where does irony come into it?
[7604] You know, things like this, so take care with these things, they get very difficult to distinguish ... other kinds of comedy.
[7605] Okay.
[7606] Turning to Johnson ... which is what we're here for ... there are two erm ... versions, if you like, of the satire, particularly as Roman kind of satire which are relevant, okay?
[7607] One is very pure satire, and he comes up with this idea as well.
[7608] Erm ... attacking ... the social ... forms ... and customs ... of the time.
[7609] I mean most satire does that ... but it's what Johnson's satire does ... particularly well.
[7610] Okay?
[7611] There's another category ... of satire
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7612] which, if you like ... Johnson's made his own.
[7613] If you're gonna ru talk about the comedy ... of humours ... you ma more than likely gonna be talking about Johnson.
[7614] Okay?
[7615] And this is where humours ... has nothing to do with humorousness.
[7616] Get that in your head.
[7617] Comedy of humours basically means ... personality traits carried to excess.
[7618] Manias.
[7619] Okay.
[7620] Sorry to digress.
[7621] A comedy of ... aspects of [...] which are to be taken to extremes.
[7622] Okay?
[7623] So a modern humour on the stage might be ... a really sort of over-the-top virilous feminist.
[7624] Okay?
[7625] That'll be our modern style of ... erm ... humour.
[7626] Right.
[7627] That's it.
[7628] Now ... the next, I want you ... to look at ... the verse prologue of the play.
[7629] It comes just before act one, scene one.
[7630] The verse prologue.
[7631] Okay?
[7632] In particular ... lines eleven to the end.
[7633] Okay?
[7634] So just skim through the first ten lines ... then eleven to the end really concentrate on.
[7635] I wa I want you to tell me ... if ... what is Johnson saying that his particular comedy of humours ... this play ... is doing?
[7636] What, what's its purpose?
[7637] What is the purpose of Johnsonian comedy?
[7638] Comedy to Johnson.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7639] Okay.
[7640] ... Go for the last couple of lines ... whate whatever stage you're at.
Rebecca (PS586) [clears throat]
None (KPVPS003) [7641] Okay.
[7642] Who wants to tell me ... what Johnson is saying about the, of Johnsonian comedy?
[7643] ... Anything other than a guess.

13 (Tape 130702)

None (KPVPS003) [7644] Er religion [...] , Johnson.
[7645] I don't think religious belief, as such.
[7646] I think his hypocritical ... extremism is in fact.
[7647] I'm not asking you to do these now, but they're useful for your ... erm, this was a handout given to people last year that I was ... got given.
[7648] And ... if you're ... wanting to spend more time on Johnson at any stage, this is sort of there's something that I sort of don't trust ... producing some ... er, you know a play to ... a load of boxes but erm, la la la, and sheets as well.
[7649] Sorry.
[7650] You can finish looking later on.
[7651] And you want four there.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7652] We can share ours.
None (KPVPS003) [7653] Yeah. [...]
Ann (PS5AF) [7654] We haven't got a copy.
None (KPVPS003) [7655] Erm ... if you like, you filled in all those boxes ... in your spare time ... you come up with a whole list of these ... follies of ... human beings.
[7656] But ... there's always a but ... if there's really a moral lesson ... it's all just like an observation.
[7657] There are four ... if you're greedy and lustful, hypocritical ... stupid ... whatever, you're going to be easily conned.
[7658] But does Johnson ... so he's attacking ... these people for doing that ... but does he ... is there any sort of ...
Ann (PS5AF) [7659] Not really.
None (KPVPS003) [7660] border of ora morality about that?
Ann (PS5AF) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7661] Well maybe that's it then.
Ann (PS5AF) [7662] He's punishing them.
None (KPVPS003) [7663] For those of you who don't realize [...] ... about five minutes, but ... yeah, basically nobody's punished ... at all.
[7664] And whilst in a Shakespeare play ... well, let me just give the, give the ex ... erm example that ... if this was a Shakespeare play ... for example, and ... you, you had all these characters in disguise conning other people and whatever, by the end of the play everybody would be out of their disguises ... and ... marrying each other and all the bad people would have been consigned, you know, to stage off
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7665] erm, maybe not to be totally finished off, but, you know,th they're off the stage and you just end up with this, sort of, festive marriage business.
[7666] In Johnson, none of that happened.
[7667] And in fact, a nice bit of reading the play was that ... I bet, and Johnson's gonna sort it out, he's gonna sort it out, he's gonna, he's gonna ... you know, expose ... Sottle, and Face, and Doll as wicked ... and to reassert all the, you know, nice ... values, like self-knowledge, er, and romantic [...] and forgiveness and all these things.
[7668] And he's got two opportunities to do that.
[7669] In Surly, d'ya remember Surly?
[7670] The one he ... hoists ... Sottle and that lot [...] time dressed up as Spanish captain and cons [...] .
[7671] But in the end Surly's moved, sort of shoved off stage.
[7672] He doesn't get anywhere.
[7673] And the other one is when Ludwitt comes back ... th the master of the house.
[7674] You think yeah, yeah!
[7675] Ludwitt's gonna clear all these people out, punish them.
[7676] [...] blood.
[7677] But he doesn't.
[7678] But look at the scene in which Ludwitt comes back.
[7679] Act five, scene five.
[7680] Er erm ... sorry, not act five, scene five ... erm ... act five, scene three.
[7681] The end of act five.
Rebecca (PS586) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7682] Scene three.
[7683] ... From line seventy
Rebecca (PS586) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7684] five ... from about seventy three whatever.
[7685] Ludwitt overhears Face talking to Sottle who's still in the house.
[7686] Okay?
[7687] Erm ... who wants to, who wants to do Ludwitt?
[7688] [...] ... Er ... Katherine.
Rebecca (PS586) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7689] Right Katherine.
[7690] Erm
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7691] I'd rather not.
None (KPVPS003) [7692] You'd rather not.
[7693] Okay.
[7694] Erm ... John.
[7695] Ludwitt.
Inga (PS6RY) [7696] Okay.
None (KPVPS003) [7697] And ... Face ... er, next on the list is
None (KPVPS000) [7698] [whispering] Next one comes to me [] .
None (KPVPS003) [7699] Andrea.
Ann (PS5AF) [7700] Yeah, I'll do Face.
None (KPVPS003) [7701] Okay.
[7702] So that's Face and Ludwitt.
[7703] Okay.
[7704] From, oh is it so?
Ann (PS5AF) [7705] Oh right.
Inga (PS6RY) [7706] [reading play] Oh is it so?
[7707] Then you converse with spirits.
[7708] Come sir!
[7709] No more ... may your, may your tricks degenerate the truth the shortest way.
Ann (PS5AF) [7710] [reading] Dismiss this rabble sir!
[7711] What shall I do?
[7712] I'm catched .
Inga (PS6RY) [7713] Good neighbours, I thank you all, you made a part.
[7714] Come sir, you know that I am an indulging master and therefore conceal nothing.
[7715] What's your medicine?
[7716] To draw so many, several sorts of wild fowl.
Ann (PS5AF) [7717] Sir!
[7718] You won't want to effect mirth and wit, for here's no place to talk ... on th in the street.
[7719] Give me the leave to make the best of my fortune and only pardon me the abuse of your house.
[7720] It's all I beg.
[7721] I'll have you to a widow in recompense that you should give me thanks for ... and make you seven years younger, and a rich one.
[7722] Tis but your putting on a Spanish clock.
[7723] I have her within.
[7724] You need not fear the house.
[7725] I was not visited.
Inga (PS6RY) [7726] But for me you came
None (KPVPS003) [7727] It was not visited [...] .
Inga (PS6RY) [7728] Ha?
None (KPVPS003) [7729] Sorry, it was not visited.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
Inga (PS6RY) [7730] But for me you came sooner than you expected.
Ann (PS5AF) [7731] It is true sir.
[7732] Pray you forgive me [] ?
Inga (PS6RY) [7733] Well, let's see your widow [] .
None (KPVPS003) [7734] Okay.
[7735] What, what did Ludwitt [...] ?
[7736] I mean, from the first line it's ... says, what shall I do, I'm catched ?
[7737] Think he's been caught.
[7738] And what happened?
None (KPVPS000) [7739] Well he [...] back up again.
Rebecca (PS586) [cough]
Inga (PS6RY) [7740] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7741] You don't know?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7742] What's the tricky bit?
[7743] ... Face has been caught in the act ... using his master's house a house as a brothel and ... er
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7744] a place for ... you know, false alchemy.
[7745] Ludwitt comes back, all the neighbours are clustering around trying to get in, Ludwitt, first of all he sends away the neighbours
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7746] he asks Face to tell him everything ... and what does Face offer him?
Ann (PS5AF) [7747] The widow.
None (KPVPS003) [7748] A widow.
[7749] And what does Ludwitt do?
None (KPVPS000) [7750] Yeah, yeah I'll pay.
None (KPVPS003) [7751] He accepts it.
[7752] [laughing] Yeah, that's right I'll pay this time [] .
[7753] Yeah.
[7754] And, and
Rebecca (PS586) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7755] [...] , you know ... no difficulty.
[7756] The point that I'm trying to make is that ... Johnson made it plain, yes, that greed makes you gullible, lust makes you gullible, er er, you will be conned, but nobody gets punished.
[7757] I mean ... what is the point of ... saying he's going to [...] ... better us ... yet all he's doing is pointing out these follies.
[7758] He's not saying, you know, you will suffer for them ... except by humiliation.
Inga (PS6RY) [7759] Well that lady gets punished but then he's not like taking this ... so sort of view that there's ... any sort of order in the world.
[7760] He's
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
Inga (PS6RY) [7761] sort of you, and people do get their [...] broken up, and you say, oh well Face gets away with it, but he's the only one, everyone else ... sort of gets on their face.
None (KPVPS003) [7762] But, the very fact
Inga (PS6RY) [7763] So, so, so
None (KPVPS003) [7764] that Face survives basically
Inga (PS6RY) [7765] Yes.
None (KPVPS003) [7766] arch ... as if he has a
Inga (PS6RY) [7767] Right, Face ... Face is, is ... a brilliant [...] , and, and like
None (KPVPS003) [7768] So that he's getting
Inga (PS6RY) [7769] better
None (KPVPS003) [7770] his reward?
Inga (PS6RY) [7771] [clears throat] ... He's not getting his reward but it be ... too simplistic to say ... oh well, if you're gonna be bad you're gonna get [...] , but this
Rebecca (PS586) [cough]
Inga (PS6RY) [7772] doesn't happen like that.
None (KPVPS003) [7773] No.
Inga (PS6RY) [7774] What he probably is saying is that ... you more than likely get [...] unless you actually ... [...] .
[7775] The majority of people get things done ... through the greed and the lust ... and therefore, also religion.
None (KPVPS003) [7776] So, are you saying ... that Johnson, despite the fact that he was dealing with human types, human beings, was actually more realistic in terms of how the world as a whole works ... in that, bad people do get away with things ... if they're good enough [...] ?
Inga (PS6RY) [7777] I think, yeah I think, that, that he's structured and [...] like the, like plays like King Lear, where ... there's this sort of unspoken erm ... good guy at the top that sees that anything is punished that's bad, and people get their just desserts.
None (KPVPS003) [7778] Yeah.
[7779] Well ... hopefully we're gonna do about King Lear.
[7780] But, yeah, I take your analogy that there are plays in which time, or the gods, or God ... sort things out.
Inga (PS6RY) [7781] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7782] And, and, yeah.
[7783] Okay.
[7784] And people get exposed and ... all the rest of it.
[7785] Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7786] Okay, so it's often the anarchist ... that's erm ... as far as we got.
[7787] Erm ... crass value judgment time please.
[7788] Who likes Johnson, and who likes Shakespeare?
[7789] First of all, anybody like Johnson better than Shakespeare?
None (KPVPS000) [7790] I do.
None (KPVPS003) [7791] You do.
[7792] Why?
None (KPVPS000) [7793] Just cos erm, I don't really like Shakespeare.
[7794] It's a bit more, it's more
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS000) [7795] humorous to me.
[7796] I, it just appeals more.
[7797] I'm not really a Shakespeare fan.
Inga (PS6RY) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7798] But you can't really sort of put your finger on any
None (KPVPS000) [7799] It's just the setting of it as well, at the back.
[7800] You know, it's set in London.
[7801] It just appeals to me more.
None (KPVPS001) [7802] I think Shakespeare appeals to me more because I can understand it.
None (KPVPS003) [7803] Right.
None (KPVPS001) [7804] Because I can't understand this.
[7805] I just get frustrated with it.
None (KPVPS003) [7806] Right.
None (KPVPS001) [7807] And perhaps if I can understand it more, then
None (KPVPS003) [7808] Yeah.
None (KPVPS001) [7809] I'll be able to appreciate it.
None (KPVPS003) [7810] It makes you feel that you, you, being able to see this play
None (KPVPS001) [7811] Yeah.
[7812] I'd erm
None (KPVPS003) [7813] then you, you, you'd be able
None (KPVPS001) [7814] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7815] get a much better, better chance.
None (KPVPS001) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7816] I mean which, yeah, cos, cos we need it underlined.
[7817] [...] again, that, that has a visual ... but erm, his [...] Shakespeare.
[7818] Why do you think we all Sh study Shakespeare?
[7819] Why is it a
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7820] kind of a national icon?
[7821] Because ... we don't have to see him.
[7822] People like you and me, I earn my living by reading Shakespeare but it's not like you're supposed to do anyway, you know.
[7823] But, the fact is you can read over it, you can study it in a very literary way, you just can't do the same thing with Johnson.
[7824] It's very much, you know ... erm ... stage, a stage [...] .
[7825] Well okay, those of you who liked the Shakespeare better, for whatever reasons, even if it's just because you didn't get to grips with Johnson, which of the plays, first of all, erm ... did you find most interesting?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7826] Dunno.
None (KPVPS003) [7827] Wi who's read, read Twelfth Night and found that one most interesting?
Rebecca (PS586) [7828] I thought, I liked Twelfth Night cos it's funny.
None (KPVPS003) [7829] So, as a comedy, Twelfth
Rebecca (PS586) [7830] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7831] Night.
Rebecca (PS586) [7832] Better.
None (KPVPS003) [7833] But most of you said that Twelfth Night wasn't the funniest ... play of these three scintillating [laughing] comedies chosen [] .
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
Rebecca (PS586) [7834] Ha!
None (KPVPS003) [7835] Definitely have to [laughing] [...] [] ... demonstrate.
[7836] Erm ... but you liked Twelfth Night?
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7837] I've seen Twelfth Night and
None (KPVPS003) [7838] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7839] And that, yeah.
[7840] Again, we're back to this idea that, you know, it's ridiculous stuck in a drama course and not ... and, and looking at them just as, as text.
[7841] Did anybody like the Winter's Tale?
[7842] I'm more interested, I'm more interested in why is that?
Ann (PS5AF) [7843] I thought it was the [...] tragic comedy like life really.
[7844] Like
None (KPVPS003) [7845] Yeah.
Ann (PS5AF) [7846] not just ... either one or the other, or [...] .
None (KPVPS003) [7847] It was all a mixture.
Ann (PS5AF) [7848] I dunno.
None (KPVPS003) [7849] Yeah.
[7850] What have you thought?
Rebecca (PS586) [7851] Er er ... it was more sort of solid er er ... where er ... Twelfth Night seemed to jump.
None (KPVPS003) [7852] Solid?
Rebecca (PS586) [7853] Well, I'm not very good with words.
[7854] Erm, it was more erm ... well Twelfth Night you had all these different characters and they're coming in and out and they
None (KPVPS003) [7855] Mm.
Rebecca (PS586) [7856] were jumping all over the place and the action moved
None (KPVPS003) [7857] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7858] so quickly
None (KPVPS003) [7859] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [7860] but wi with the Winter's Tale, I managed to grasp what was going on.
None (KPVPS003) [7861] Right.
Rebecca (PS586) [7862] It was a
None (KPVPS003) [7863] It was developed more
Rebecca (PS586) [7864] it was more compact, you know
None (KPVPS003) [7865] at the ending.
Rebecca (PS586) [7866] Yeah.
None (KPVPS003) [7867] Yeah.
[7868] Right.
[7869] Yeah, I think that's true, I think it's a very ... well structured
Rebecca (PS586) [7870] It's like
None (KPVPS003) [7871] play.
Rebecca (PS586) [7872] it's like ... [...] isn't it?
[7873] Sort of, all to do
None (KPVPS003) [7874] Yeah.
Rebecca (PS586) [7875] with the children and
None (KPVPS003) [7876] Yeah.
[7877] Yeah.
[7878] He's, he's got a [...] .
[7879] Erm ... well I feel we haven't really done justice to Johnson.
[7880] Well maybe I should have given him two weeks instead of one, but, anyway.
[7881] Erm
Rebecca (PS586) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7882] Can I have just have about ... John Donne
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7883] and what's gonna happen over the next few weeks?
[7884] Erm, we've finished a bit earlier today.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [7885] Could have done.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [laugh]
None (KPVPS003) [7886] [...] ... Erm ... okay.
[7887] We've technically got three weeks of Donne, mostly by reading [...] ... ne er, the week after next.
[7888] Ya?
[7889] What I said to the other group, partly because they ... had a, an hour before the lecture is that ... I'll use next week with them, as, as an introduction to the poetry of this period.
[7890] Now, I can either do that with you, very sort of general introduction trying to place Donne in comparison with other poets an and just ... really getting the basics of Donne ... or, since you'll have had, just had a lecture ... we could go on and do ... some more sort of specific complex things.
[7891] Any, any strong opinions either way?
[7892] Would you like an introduction?
Rebecca (PS586) [7893] So what's sor what's happening in the lecture?
[7894] Is it like er introduction or
None (KPVPS003) [7895] Erm, the lecture is on erm ... tell you
Rebecca (PS586) [7896] Mhm.
None (KPVPS001) [7897] Question of styles.
None (KPVPS003) [7898] question of styles.
[7899] I'm not actually sure, who's giving it?
None (KPVPS001) [7900] Fay .
None (KPVPS003) [7901] Well ... yeah, she's probably gonna be, now, I, no it's either that she's going to be ... well certainly, an introduction to the kind of ... methods that Donne ... Donne uses ... which I, I'm supposed to follow up on.
[7902] Is it, it tells you though what, what interests is erm ... I, I love the virtue of this period so, yeah, it's a good excuse for me to sort of
Rebecca (PS586) [7903] Mhm.
None (KPVPS003) [7904] erm ... share [...] .
Inga (PS6RY) [7905] Do we like, do this now?
[7906] Sort of every, sort of
None (KPVPS003) [7907] Right.
Inga (PS6RY) [7908] impression, or is, like if you
None (KPVPS003) [7909] That is in your book
Inga (PS6RY) [7910] read something
None (KPVPS003) [7911] actually.
[7912] I it's in the Craig
Inga (PS6RY) [7913] and you can read something
None (KPVPS003) [7914] edition.
Inga (PS6RY) [7915] you can read something like that?
None (KPVPS003) [7916] Yeah.
[7917] Rather than doing it in erm
Inga (PS6RY) [7918] Then you [...] that, but it'll be useful right now
None (KPVPS003) [7919] when you [...] .
Inga (PS6RY) [7920] to actually talk about it.
None (KPVPS003) [7921] Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7922] Okay.
[7923] That I'll ... well that, yes I'll say ... can you use this week ... to make sure you understand when Donne was alive.
[7924] And it's not a stupid [...] .
[7925] But, exactly when he was alive ... basically what happened in his career.
[7926] I don't normally sort of insist on people looking at the, the biographical background for the, but it's crucial with Donne ... for you to pick up on a lot of the
Inga (PS6RY) [clears throat]
None (KPVPS003) [7927] meanings of, of it.
[7928] So, make sure you know what ... about his life and his times.
[7929] If you can, erm, I don't know how many of you have a sort of religious background anyway, in terms of you know, things like Sunday school and whatever, but if you can just ... get yourself familiar with the basic points of difference between Protestant and Catholic faith.
[7930] That might help you as well.
[7931] Erm ... can't think of anything else ... er er ... that I can suggest ... just to erm
Ann (PS5AF) [7932] What have we gotta do?
None (KPVPS003) [7933] Hmm?
Ann (PS5AF) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7934] Right.
[7935] Basically I'm gonna do ... a collection of love poetry with you ... a selection of religious poetry ... focusing on the holy sonnets ... in the religious poetry.
[7936] We'll do those two areas quite thoroughly ... in seven hours.
[7937] The thing you probably won't have much time to do in seven hours is erm ... his sermons, which really do tie in with the
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7938] religious poetry.
[7939] Give you the, the ... the prose side of the poetry, but raise the, the [...] .
[7940] And I'm gonna try and squeeze in some work on his satires ... as well.
[7941] Erm ... which are called elegies, just to confuse you.
[7942] Erm ... so those are the three or four areas we'll be doing, is reli i religious poetry, love poetry, and the satires, which are actually called elegies.
[7943] Okay?
[7944] Erm, would you like me to, to actually ... say erm, the particular poems?
[7945] I mean, I was gonna ... let you have them next week, but if you'd like some to sit down and look at ... erm ... I'll find my ... things if I can.
[7946] Oh oh!
[7947] Oh well
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
Rebecca (PS586) [7948] I don't care.
None (KPVPS003) [7949] Alright, I don't think she did them.
None (KPVPS001) [7950] Er erm
None (KPVPS003) [7951] Okay.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7952] Right.

[7954] The Good Morrow.
[7955] Love's Alchemy.
[7956] The Dream.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [whispering] [...] []
Rebecca (PS586) [7957] [whispering] I know, just for you [] .

Inga (PS6RY) [cough]
None (KPVPS003) [7959] The Sun Rising.
[7960] The last one, Women's Constancy.
[7961] These are all love poems, okay?
[7962] ... Right.
Unknown speaker (KPVPSUNK) [...] [...]
None (KPVPS003) [7963] I have here, if, if anybody wants, erm, a work sheet that ... erm, I was gonna give out and then I ... I thought, probably wouldn't get done.
[7964] So, but if you'd like it on ... The Alchemist, and you feel you really haven't got through to The Alchemist, it's here, okay?
[7965] Just take one off there. ... [leaving classroom]
