    I'm retired now, and the job I had necessitated that I travel extensively, mostly in Europe but not exclusively, which I did for over 40 years. I am Scottish and from the Isle of Skye originally, and when I was first hired for the job I was told by my manager to lose my Jock accent when abroad as I would not be taken seriously or be understood with my broad Scottish accent. This was the early 80s you understand when PC was not a thing yet, I thankfully ignored his advice after a short time and found to my pleasant surprise that I was greeted with far more friendliness when I spoke naturally to people in my "Jock accent" than in some unnatural enunciation that resembled Mrs Doubtfire.

      To be fair, there are some English speaking countries where a thick Scottish accent of any variety will be greeted with utter confusion. I'm thinking North America especially. I imagine you did run into plenty of Europeans who struggled to understand you, especially back then when the rates of English skills on the continent were much lower than they are now!
      But yes, there's nothing wrong whatsoever with that accent. It's charming, in fact. Those old attitudes about accents were always quite specific to the culture(s) of the UK and Ireland.

    @lloydevans2900 8 місяців тому +2

    Those polar explorers technically didn't use only their own power during that trip: If you define an "external power" to be anything beyond what sheer human effort can do, and I doubt that definition would be even remotely controversial. One of the forms of skiing they used was "kite skiing", which is basically what it sounds like: If you have a tailwind, you can fly a kite ahead of you, a bit like the sport of "kite-surfing". Which is basically flying a large "power kite" while standing on a surfboard, which generates enough force to propel the board and rider across the water at respectable speeds. This can even lift the board and rider several metres up into the air if the wind speed is high enough.
    Anyway, if you can fly a power kite of similar size and design while on skis, the same force generated by the kite can propel at least one skier to similar speeds, or can even propel the whole group if they can tether themselves together, albeit at lower speeds. So if they were using the kite skiing technique (which Rupert Lonsdon explicitly told us that they did), that would have been a supplementary power source. Which could arguably be described as a mechanical power source, since it did provide a propulsive force - it just so happens that the energy source to make it work is one of the best known renewable sources - the wind.

    As much as I love Eddie the Eagle's spirit and determination, I do think the Olympics should belong to athletes who've trained extensively and are of the elite. It might not be quite as entertaining, but when it comes to athletics, I think most viewers want to see the best of the best.
