Lets be friendly…
Did you know…
- 84% of us think we should be friendlier to each other
- 57% of Brits are at their most miserable at this time of year
- Nearly half of us believe Northern England is the friendliest part of the country
- Two thirds of us think London and the South East is the unfriendliest
- When it comes to starting a friendly conversation with a stranger down the pub, more than half of us would rather turn the other way and ignore them
And it seems that Ireland is seen at the friendliest place to live… On this note Guinness have taken up the annual celebration of St Patrick to try and encourage us to be nice and friendly to each other.
So lets at least try to be nice to a random stranger once every now and then… maybe listen to that old guy down the pub… or at least get yourself over to the Guinness Facebook page, and get a buy one Guinness get one free voucher.
How are you planning to be nice?
