OK everyone! I want everybody to fold their computers, put down cell phones, and full attention on Martin here.
Teacher
OK, shhhhhh
[The teacher explains the change to the schedule, we are going to have a talk today.]
Teacher
So, you will not have your regular class today... This is because we have Martin Richards here today and he is going to talk to you about... different things, mostly culture I believe... and I thought this would be something that could inspire you in your work that you will do in the upcoming week. So, be attentive! OK!
Martin
They are. They are very attentive. Wow!
Good morning
Students
Good morning.
Thank you for the introduction, especially "the subject, Martin is going to talk about culture". We didn't have a very powerful title for it today. But there you go, that was because of our planning.

Martin
A little bit about me. This saves me having to talk so much about who I am because I know I am, and now you know. I've been around a long time I realise. How old am I?
Student
28
Martin
On the outside, if you add up those numbers. On the outside about 50...
Student
62
Martin
62, about that. How is your maths? I was born in 56, how old am I?
Student
Old enough
Martin
Old enough thank you. I'm old enough to know better. I've be around long time. Half of my life I've lived in the UK which where this horrible accent comes from. Half my life I spent in Sweden and I think I may have to say a few words in Swedish.
[Says something in Swedish]
Martin
Once it happened that I was gonna write my name on the board - this was a long time before these wonderful devices that we have these days - I was going to write my name on the board (sings) "Martin" and behind me couple of people said "MMmm, snygg häck".
[Snygg häck = nice bum]
Students
[laugh]
Martin
And then I turned round and said "Eeeh, I speak Swedish". So I do it nowadays it in advance to let you know that if you say "Snygg häck" I'll be very delighted because that was a long time ago.
