WELL FINALLY AFTER FIVE WEEKS AND ABOUT 25000 EDITS MY INTERVIEW HAS GONE ON THE SITE. TO BE HONEST I HAVENT LISTENED TO IT BUT JUSTIN HAS BEEN KEEPING ME REGULARLY UPDATED ABOUT WHEN IT WOULD GO LIVE. PLEASE LET ME APOLOGISE FOR ALL THE ERMMS ETC - I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL E MAILS TODAY IN A SLIGHTLY MOCKING TONE SO NOT SURE WHETHER I WILL BOTHER LISTENING TO MYSELF DRONE ONE - GUESS I SHOULD TO CHECK ACCURACY ETC - THE INTERVIEW WAS ORIGINALLY ABOUT HALF AN HOUR - NOW I KNOW WHY WITH ALL THE HESITATIONS- I AM TOLD IT HAS BEEN CUT TO ABOUT 5 MINUTES SO HOPEFULLY IT HAS NOT PROVED TOO DULL - ACTUALLY WE HAD A BIT OF A LAUGH MAKING IT AND BY THE END IT FELT WE HAD PERHAPS BEEN OUT ON THE PISS BUT THERE WAS ONLY COFFEE INVOLVED .....PROMISE ......WELL THAT AND NICOTINE!

RE THE ERRSS AND ERMS - IT IS SOMETHING I WAS CONSCIOUS OF WHEN DOING THE INTERVIEW - I DONT CONSIDER MYSELF THE NERVOUS OR SHY RETIRING TYPE BUT I GUESS PERHAPS IT IS A NERVOUS INFLECTION OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT - ALTERNATIVELY I TEND ALWAYS TO CONSIDER VERY CAREFULLY WHAT I SAY - PARTICULARLY ABOUT MY SPECIALIST SUBJECT - I TEND TO BE VERY THOROUGH ALMOST TO THE POINT OF LABOURING SOMETHING - MY WIFE GETS EXTREMELY FED UP WITH ME WHEN I START PONTIFICATING ABOUT SOMETHING AND PERHAPS I TAKE TEN MINUTES TO SAY SOMETHING OTHERS WOULD COVER IN 2 - I WANT TO COVER EVERY ANGLE AND TRY TO ENSURE THAT I AM UNDERSTOOD CORRECTLY - PERHAPS I AM TOO DETAILED BUT ON THE BASIS SO MANY PEOPLE TALK TO ME AFTER THEY HAVE ARRANGED A MORTGAGE IN SPAIN VIA ANOTHER SOURCE ONLY TO FIND IT WAS NOT HOW THEY WERE TOLD IT WOULD BE AND THEY HAVE MADE A WRONG CHOICE, IF THEY WERE EVEN OFFERED A CHOICE - COMBINED WITH THE HEAVY COST IF REMORTGAGE HERE I WANT TO KNOW THAT WHAT WE ARRANGE FOR CLIENTS IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT FROM THE OUTSET AND THEY KNOW ALL THE SMALL PRINT  IN ADVANCE.

THE ERRS COME IN BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I EXPLAIN WHAT NEEDS TO BE EXPLAINED - FOR ME IT IS A NATURAL PAUSE - THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE SPOKEN TO ME ON THE PHONE OR HAVE MET ME WILL PRESUMABLY BE CONSCIOUS OF THE NUMBER OF TIMES I USE MY "NATURAL PAUSE" - CERTAINLY I AM NOW MORE AWARE OF IT AND HAVE CONSCIOUSLY TRIED TO REDUCE IT - HOWEVER I HAVE FOUND IT DOESNT COME NATURALLY SO I AM AFRAID THOSE THAT TALK TO ME IN THE FUTURE WILL HAVE TO PUT UP WITH IT - I NEED TO THINK ABOUT WHAT I NEED TO SAY BECAUSE ULTIMATELY IT IS WHAT SOMEONE NEEDS TO KNOW

THUS I SHALL CONTINUE TO ERR ON THE SIDE OF CAUTION RATHER THAN GO TO A VOICE COACH TO CURE ME OF MY "TICK" - IF THAT IS MY ONLY VICE (EXCEPT SMOKING) THEN I RECKON I AINT DOING TOO BAD

WHAT SHE MEANT TO SAY WAS THAT MY SHIRTS ARE ALL COLOUR CODED IN MY WARDROBE - MY SHOES POLISHED AND PUT AWAY - MY CASUAL SHIRTS ALL TOGETHER MY WORK SHIRTS ALL TOGETHER - MY SUITS HUNG UP AND PUT IN SUIT BAGS THE CARS CLEANED EVERY WEEKEND - SOCKS ALL PAIRED UP BEFORE THEY ARE PUT AWAY -. WASHING UP ALWAYS DONE AND NOT LEFT ETC, DIRTY CLOTHES ALWAYS IN THE LAUNDRY BASKET 

BASICALLY I AM A STIFF BUT I ALWAYS KNOW EXACTLY WHERE I NEED TO FIND SOMETHING WHEN I WANT IT AND I CAN ALWAYS SEE OUT OF MY WINDSCREEN - AS CAN SHE.

Hi Smiley,

I have the interview in a file, I will have to listen to it later on but I think the erms! are part of the natural echo produced in the palatal cavity of a Nile crocodile...

Anyway, why don´t u unlock the CAPS mate.... it feels like you are shouting and I know you are not shouting.

Juan.
