Noel Gallagher Meets Tim Jonze
“ I’ve got one fatal fl aw in my perfect makeup as a human being. I never forgive Noel Gallagher meets Tim Jonze Monday 05/08/19 Four pages of wellbeing! Rhik Samadder, how to say sorry and life without soap pages 2-5 Re-enter the dragon How Bruce Lee’s daughter brought his dream to life page 10 • The Guardian 2 Wellbeing Monday 5 August 2019 In Britain, we over-apologise out of politeness . Are you doing That not only detracts from an apology when we do have something to be sorry for, but it can be seen as it right? submission, especially in our professional lives. The classic example is at a social gathering or Sayingyg sorry y networking event . If you try to infi ltrate a group by saying, “sorry to interrupt” , the fi rst thing you have told people is that you are apologetic and interrupting . Likewise, people responding to emails with “sorry for the delay in getting back to you” are highlighting the fact there was a delay. Instead, start by thanking the person for allowing you the time to come back to them. In terms of saying sorry when you have something to apologise for, it is better to do it succinctly . You can tell a sincere apology by the fact that it is short and to the point. Qualifying an apology generally means the apologiser does not fully mean it. Preferably, the apology should be face to face ; if that is not possible, then do it over the phone. If you have really annoyed someone and done the initial apology face-to-face or over the phone, it is fi ne to follow up with something more expansive in writing. -

Dior oozes ‘bourgeois cool’ at Paris men’s fashion week MONDAY, JUNE 29, 2015 38 An Iraqi vendor sells fruit in a street in the capital Baghdad during Islam’s holy month of Ramadan yesterday.—AFP Kanye gives defiant performance at Glastonbury anye West gave a defiant performance at Glastonbury on Saturday night, challenging critics Kwho said he was unsuitable for the event by declar- ing himself the “greatest living rock star”. The US rapper delighted many core fans with a 100-minute set on the Pyramid Stage that included big hits and new material, but did little to win over those festival-goers who came along out of curiosity. Wearing blue denim with a white splat- tered paint effect, West spent most of the set alone on a bare stage under a ceiling of hundreds of powerful spot lights, although he took a trip above the stage in a crane for “Touch the Sky”. “Thank you all for coming out tonight, thank you for coming to see me,” he said in a rare moment of engage- ment with the crowd. West’s performance opened with “Stronger” and closed with “Gold Digger”, and included a guest appearance by Justin Vernon of folk band Bon Iver, who lurked in the shadows on the edge of the stage as the rapper strode around. At one point, West sang part of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody”-a bold move before declar- ing: “You are watching the greatest living rock star on the planet!” The decision to give West the coveted Saturday night Kanye West performs on The Pyramid Stage at the Glastonbury Festival, at Worthy Farm in Somerset, England, Saturday.—AP photos slot caused controversy among fans of the festival, which is better known for its rock and folk music, and 135,000 peo- ple signed a petition to get him dropped. -

Folkeast 15Th, 16Th and 17Th August Glemham Hall, Suffolk 2014 PROGRAMME
FolkEast 15th, 16th and 17th August Glemham Hall, Suffolk 2014 PROGRAMME Eccentric, eclectic and essentially Suffolk A WORD FROM OUR PATRONS: We are extremely happy and proud to have been asked to be patrons of FolkEast. The fact that they chose us is only proof that the organisational team are obviously remarkably savvy and intelligent people, and that the festival is in very safe hands. I'll let you make your own minds up as to whether that was tongue-in-cheek or whether we are just massively egotistical. But we are truly thrilled to be patrons, and we're looking forward to debuting various new and exciting projects and performances at the festival over the years.” David Eagle, Michael Hughes and Sean Cooney We are proud to announce, Teeside-based, The Young’uns as our first-ever patrons of FolkEast and we are even more delighted (and relieved) that they accepted after Becky threw coffee at them (accidentally) before they took to the stage at the Cromer Folk Festival (sorry). Celebrating 10 years performing together, Sean, Michael and David have gained a reputation as being one of the most entertaining live acts on the folk scene and have released four albums, the most recent being the thoughtful, “Never Forget”. We look forward to their involvement in FolkEast for years to come, working with us to inspire , as only they can, young people to engage with folk as a living tradition . We will all look forward to them performing an annual Patrons set for FolkEast. Welcome aboard!
