      Anecdotal but do feel as though it would be more welcome in NYC than most of England in general. Watching Tesco’s employees, I think, tell him greeting customers is not what they’re about is on point

    They way you can craft such personalised and insightful poetry for each and every person straight off the cuff is truly hilarious.

      I've tried. It has nothing to do with how articulate you are. You have to just go for it and really wish to make the other persons day. First it's hard. You studder, you miss words, you run over your words. But just like anything, if you keep at it, you get better and better.
