Face to face conversations 

Hi Illona from Rainy Cincinnati, Ohio. On Independence Day! It's so true what you're saying. We need to make the effort. I so enjoy hearing from you and seeing the cats and all your adventures. Take care!

Your hair looks lovely, Ilona.

I agree with you,person to person communication is almost nonexistent,the iPhone and internet has taken over,being housebound i miss normal communication 😊

I really like your hair 🙂

Agree. I prefer face to face conversation. I find a lot is lost in communication when you can't see them. They edit themselves. Thanks for the video.

It’s true Ilona many a pleasant conversation ensues from a nod, and a friendly smile and the ability to not only talk but also to listen . I think possibly many people shy away from interaction because they worry what others may think of them , it’s a skill most of learn as we age , mind you it’s useful to be able to close the conversation down without offence when one or other of you feel your eyes glazing over 🤣🤣

Good morning from The Netherlands. Ive been retired now for 3 years and when i was working i hated lunchbreaks sat amongst colleagues. The reason being that most would be zapping away on their mobile phones. There would be the odd conversation but there would be no eye contact as they were more concentrated on their phones. The odd few of us that didnt care for these behaviours would go out for a walk and chat amongst ourselves. Its hard working with people like that when your a sociable person and your working in the public sector.

Face to face conversation are definitely needed more I remember about a year and a half ago I met someone whilst walking the dog up a footpath I stopped to ask him where it lead and we literally had a conversation for about 2 hours, just like you said sometimes you just tune in with someone you feel comfortable talking to .

I’m from Newcastle but I’ve lived in France for the last 20 years. I still have a huge accent, sometimes I’ll be having a conversation with a child (in French) and then they will suddenly ask me what language l’m speaking 😂. Love languages, and accents.

I agree, I always chat to the person on the till in shops, had a nice conversation today

Thank You for sharing.

I talk to anyone like you say its best face to face x

Nice hair style! Happy week!

You are spoiling us now with all these videos :-)

Totally agree ilona

So good to see you back to your usual upbeat self. Best wishes from Downeast Maine USA❤️

enjoyed this chat ! 🤓

Agreed. Blessings to all ❤

When I'm on my bike I ring my bell and shout coming through from a way back, it is hard on head windy days 😂. I went to the booth, wrote in capitals, all liars, didn't have a choice so went with my feelings and kept it clean😂 as recommended by Brian ukc👍

If your walking along the canal in Leeds they nearly knock pedestrians over,but what’s worse still is the deliverroo bikes riding at full speed in the city centre pedestrian zones.

Your hair looks nice.x

Good afternoon, Ilona ! Always a ‘comfort ‘ to see you . Truly. I do hope the voting in your country goes your way . I agree. I am NOT a fan of the written word in any form for the very reason that the person reading you CANNOT see your facial expression ( you took the words out of my mouth)or hear the tone of you voice and therefore the danger exists that the writer may be interpreted ( or mis interpreted) depending upon what the mood is of the ‘listener’ . I have fallen victim to this several times. You always make great points , Ilona. …I have told several people this reasoning whenever they ‘accuse ‘ me of something other than what I meant to say !! I have threatened to not text or write another thing to these people . Let’s meet in person I tell them . Lol -❤xxMarilyn

Agree 👍 Depending on the person 😂

I thought you had joined the city of new york police department Ilona! the sweatshirt suits you really well!..good advice there about face to face communication, thats our trouble I think, not enough talking first can lead to negative action half the time. Maisy is so beautiful. 😻👮‍♀👍🏻

It’s wonderful to find someone on the same wavelength and willing to have a great conversation:)) I wish more people would speak correctly also 💜

My daughter always says she can find me in a store because she can hear me talking to people in the store I don't know!

I've been told I talk super fast and didn't realise untill I heared a voice note I sent to my friend it sounded as thiugh I was fast forward lol so I'm trying to slow down maybe a little lol xx

Yes because you can see raised eyebrows etc 😮😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿☀️

Mayze kitty 🧡

Good morning it is Friday here in Victoria Australia

Am watching your country’s new PM speak from here in USA. What do u think of him? Of course, here in the USA our presidential election has left us with two sad choices. Been alive a long time and I have never seen this kind of choice in our country.
