How to whinge like a winner

Article Abstract:

The British have never really been able to complain effectively. Most Britons prefer not to express their grievances openly, and this means that standards of workmanship and services never really improve. A book entitled 'The Joys of Complaining,' written under the pseudonym of Jasper Griegson, aims to encourage Britons to complain effectively. It states that being aggressive when complaining can be counter-productive, and advises that letters of complaint are most effective when they contain an element of humour.

When 'seven' is the hardest word

Article Abstract:

Stammering affects 1% of the population in the UK. Many people with a stammer become isolated, as they are unable to communicate effectively and are shunned by others. However, some develop their own ways of at least partially overcoming their stammer. In some cases, basing speech on a small number of words that the stammerer can pronounce properly proves effective. When stammerers find an effective strategy, then their confidence grows and their overall speech improves.
