How can I help you? MAN: Oh, hello. I'm calling to see if it's possible to hire a car for three days next weekend. WOMAN: What size of car were you hoping to rent? MAN: Well, something big enough for a family of four with luggage. WOMAN: That would be a medium family car. Let's see. Yes, that shouldn't be a problem. There's plenty of availability. First, I need to take a few details. Can I have your name, please? MAN: Yes, it's Steven with a V. Chamberlain. Yes, CHAM BE-R-L-A-I-N. WOMAN: Okay, and can I have your address, please? MAN: Yes, it's Three Hamilton House.
2 WOMAN: Oh, that's in Queen's Road, isn't it? MAN: No, we don't live in Rowington. We're from Stratton. It must be a different Hamilton House. It's Market Street Stretton. WOMAN: And the postcode? MAN: S-T-17-5-B-U. WOMAN: And a contact telephone number. Your mobile is probably best. MAN: Yes, let's see. It's 07934-854-552. WOMAN: So can you confirm the exact dates you wish to hire the car from Friday, you said? MAN: No, Saturday morning, if possible. That's the 25th. That's the earliest we can pick it up. WOMAN: Our office opens at 8am. MAN: Oh, not that early. I expect about a quarter to nine would suit us. WOMAN: Okay. 8:45 on the Saturday. And you'll drop it off on the Monday? MAN: Yes, April the 27th. That's right. We have a train to catch at half past six, so we'd like to drop it off in the afternoon at about half four. WOMAN: Actually, we offer a complimentary shuttle service to the station and airport. If your train's at 6.30, may I suggest a five o'clock drop off? That will give you plenty of time. The shuttle bus takes no more than 20 minutes, even in the rush hour. MAN: That's great. Thanks. That'll save us a taxi fare. WOMAN: So the total charge will be, let's see, £87.50. That includes full insurance. MAN: That seems reasonable. WOMAN: I just need a few more details. Who is going to be the main driver? MAN: I am. WOMAN: You'll just need to bring your driving licence with you. You haven't got the number on you, have you? MAN: Yes, wait a minute. Yes, here it is. It's CHAMB.703.161.SW.LY.6.0. WOMAN: And will you be the only driver? MAN: Yes. My wife prefers not to drive when we hire a car. I've just remembered, we'll need a car seat for my youngest son. Is that possible? WOMAN: How old is he? MAN: Four. WOMAN: Yes, that's fine. I've added that to the booking form. There'll be a charge of £10 for the car seat. So that's everything. I'll just give you the booking reference number. It's B657.D64. MAN: Got that? WOMAN: You'll send your confirmation email with all the details.
3 MAN: Thank you. WOMAN: You're welcome. Thank you, Mr. Chamberlain.

Later we’ll be speaking to community leader Jaqueline Epping about efforts to incorporate the wide diversity of residents in her area, but up first we have psychologist Colin Fraser who is going to give us an insight into why this incorporation is both necessary and beneficial. Welcome Colin. Colin: Thank you, I’m happy to be here. Interviewer: Now Colin, you’re a bit of a mixed bag aren’t you? You were born in Canada, grew up in Scotland and now you reside in the States. So, if we’re talking about
4 cultural identity, what identity do you relate to? Colin: I’ve also lived in England and France, and you’re right that I wasn’t born in Scotland but my parents and my siblings were. In fact, my heritage goes back a number of years in that country, so, even though I’m not Scottish by birth, I would have to say that I identify predominantly with the Scottish culture. Having said that though, I think I’ve managed to incorporate aspects of each of the cultures I’ve been exposed to. Interviewer: So what makes you predominantly Scottish? Colin: Ooh, that’s not an easy question to answer. There are so many facets that make up a person’s identity that I don’t think there’s one physical factor that I could point to and it’s difficult to categorise culture. Some might say it’s determined by birth, but I think that’s too simplistic. There’s more to it than that but without going to particulars, I would have to say I just feel Scottish. And that, to me, is what’s important. I feel a sense of belonging, even when I’m not there. I went to a highland games recently, in America. You know, the outdoor event with lots of kilts and caber tossing. It was great. Watching all the athletic events and dancing was an amazing sensation. Even though it was a long way from Scotland, while I was there I just felt at home. As soon as the mass pipe band started playing I was transported to what I consider my homeland. And that’s key. Home is where the heart is as they say. Interviewer: But how can a highland games in America make you feel at home if home is thousands of miles away? Colin: Because it’s not about the country, it’s the culture. Some of the biggest games are in Canada and America and they’re a testimony to the importance of cultural identity. They were born of the people who emigrated from Scotland to those countries, people who kept their cultural roots alive and passed them down through the generations. The strength of their ties stayed with them even as they were absorbed into another culture. Some people might suggest that clinging to a bygone practice of cultural heritage is obsolete in today’s global society but I think it is now in particular, with the interconnectedness of society, that the importance of knowing who you are and where you come from becomes paramount. There must be a way of discerning oneself from the masses. Interviewer: But wouldn’t that alienate a person from the culture they reside in? Colin: On the contrary. In the global community, culture has to be accommodating. If it excludes newcomers they will separate themselves from the indigenous population and that’s when you get fractures in society, splinter groups of isolated people which can lead to conflict. In order to avoid this, both the interloping and the native culture have to accept each other. There’s give and take as with any symbiotic relationship. But that doesn’t mean abandoning your roots. It’s not just about how you see yourself but how the rest of the world views your culture. If your culture translates well, you’re in luck. You can go anywhere just being yourself and when you know yourself, the ability to accept others for who they are becomes much simpler. You can appreciate their idiosyncrasies with greater ease.
