English workers and friends don't trust each other and so they are afraid to be honest and open.
They are a closed book.
This gives rise to so much Gossip.

Why do they gossip so much in secret.
Then let it all out in the open via the back door?

Huddled in little groups at convention there they go passing on the latest about this on and that ..... and did you hear? a..... and isn't it terriblle ..........................and wouldn't you think. The nods and the looks.
All sweetness and light in the meetings and in front of the workers, but behind their backs out come the knives. The poison to inject and th gossip to spread.
You catch snippets of conversation as you pass ans sometimes it is about yourself. Oh, then they blush.

If you are interested in the people and news of them in general especially workers, you need to know how it works, how the system works.
Asking how different ones are does not always get you a reponse.
We all find that out quite quickly in our innocence. You may get the cold shoulder for asking a quite friendly and simple question, like: How is J.........? Where is she now?..........

Not secretive in my opinion, but perhaps not as outgoing as some cultures.
But not many secrets. If you want to know, just ask someone.

Fearful no doubt about having all the wrongs exposed.
If all the exes in the UK as well as the half exes, posted here it would be like the other board.
i think some post on the other board because this one was dead before it began.

"If all the exes in the UK as well as the half exes, posted here it would be like the other board"
The proportion of exes in the UK is obviously much smaller than in USA. Here far fewer leave. Perhaps because there are not the weird problems that americans seem to have.
