Recently, My friends and I had a holiday in country side.  We eaten shashliks and drank mineral water and beers. Actually, I didn't drink, because I was a driver then. After some time some people appeared close to us.  They also eaten shaslik and drank beer.

Close by afternoon they and we began prepare to go home. We collected our garbage to packets and put it into
boot. However,  our neighbours decided to get rid of  garbage just threw out it in bushes.

It made me angry and I said that they hadn't been right and they could take their  garbage with themself. One of  them said 'Ok. That's right', but other didn't. He asked me to show how put we our garbage into boot. I said him that he could see it after 15 minutes, when we'd finished. But went on the quarrel. Who knows what could he do. We were ready to fight with him, but his elder friend calmed down him.

Everything turned out alright.

In the last Friday my colleagues and I were told off by my chief. A topic our dialogue was our devices with Bluetooth. I have to say here that we construct devices for optical lines (optical measurement devices like OTDR, tester etc). Well, in last week in Moscow a exhibition went off and it was called 'Svyaz-expocomm'. We prepared our devices and gave them our chief.At the exhibition the chief tried to switch on the devices, but he couldn't, because a program, which worked in PPC, had broken!!! :( After that we knew load of new Russian word and expression!!!! By the way, when devices came back, we realised that all was ok with them.

Yesterday I communicated with a native speaker. His name is Tony. He is a former priest.  We were talking for 2 hours, and I asked him a lot of questions about England and live in England. I got a bit information about English people.

I've known that English has a plenty of dialects. But, nevertheless, they move house about 15 times in whole life. I think that English dialect have to mix up and will be only one English.

Could you answer to this question?

By the way, in Russia, which is much bigger England, isn't a number of dialects. From Kaliningard to Vladivostok. Yes, we have some accent, but no more. I've communicated with people from Vladimir, Nigniy Novgorod, Vladivostok, Novosibirsk, Moscow and all of them speak in Russian with slightly accent.

Also, Tony said, that English people were very sociable, but I've sent loads of message to native speaker and no one answer me. :(
