The Ditsy Chronicles

Cleo Twyford is dodging minor disasters, indulging in
chick chat and wielding random insignificant theories.
(And talking about herself in third person)

 
My Sean Connery theory
Monday, August 15, 2005
Yes, quite obviously I had far too much time to think on the weekend, since I was sick and stuck at home. Yet I didn't spend time solving the world's problems, no no. I spent time thinking about why Sean Connery talks the way he does - You know, quite often there's a 'sh' where a mere 's' sound should be. Yes, it's sexy, but it deserves an explanation really.

Anyway it all started when he was a boy - So there's little Seany, just learning to read and write but he's quite obviously a little confused. His name is S-e-a-n but everyone pronounces it 'Shorn'. So it's clearly a pronunciation confusion that has engrained itself in his verbal communication.

    I love " The ditsy Chronicles". Its the first thing I check when I log on to my computer at work. I think Cleo Twyford would make a great best friend. She's very endearing and just the kind of girl you feel like chatting to on a fat day, bad hair day, pre mennstrual day... any day really, when you just need to have a girly chat and a good laugh at yourself. Love the self deprecating humour. Long live Cleo!!!

    Hey I have those days on a constant revolving cycle - fat day is always Monday (because that's diet day - well half of it. Grin), bad hair day, moody mandy day (that's the pms), bad outfit day, ditsy day (there's lots of those) and definitely-not-getting-out-of-bed-today day. Hee hee
