Cornish coast for Pam. Heather and gorse catching the sun. H. A. N. W. E. everyone!
North Cliffs, Cornwall ... on a blowy and cool summer's day. When the sun broke through the clouds though, the effect was magical!
Sight and Sound:
Just saw in today's Times obit pages that Tony Joe White
passed away recently. Have always loved his music and this is an all time classic, covered by so many more famous names.
I love the story of when Tina Turner (who covered many of his songs) - and I quote direct from the Times obituary - met him face-to-face; "I walked into her dressing room and she was putting on her make-up,' White recalled. 'She looked into the mirror and started laughing. I thought, 'Are my pants un-zipped or something?' Finally she got her breath and said, 'I'm sorry, man, I always thought you were a black man' "

A couple stories in return: in college one of the grad students was from South Africa, and when I commented his accent sounded British he answered, "To American ears, yes!" And, back in the early 90s, I'd sold some software to a group at the ANU in Canberra. They were having all kinds of problems, and I couldn't get the fax to work, so I finally decided to place an overseas phone call. (Frighteningly easy even back then--no operator required, just punch lots of digits!) Anyway, a receptionist with what to my ears was a very British accent answered, and I tried to speak very slowly and carefully the name of the party I was trying to reach. There was a pause; and then she said, "Oh certainly, sir!" and connected me. Apparently she hadn't been expecting an American accent, and had to back up and reparse what I'd said!
Having said that, nearly all North American, South African and Antipodean accents are far easier to understand than many regional accents from the UK! The one I struggle with the most is the Scottish accent from The Gorbals, Glasgow.
