Last week I met Mr and Mrs G’s son, G Junior, and he was asked if we had been previously introduced. “No” he said “But I think I have heard her yodelling”. I would like to make two comments about this observation:
1. This is very likely to be true.
2. He seemed singularly unsurprised by it.
I will leave you to make of this what you will.
You yodel? I’m impressed.

Not proper yodelling. When we were kids me and my brothers used to try to yodel, we must have seen it on Heidi or perhaps a cowboy, it must have sent my mother crazy! Anyway, I am pleased to tell you that it is like riding a bicycle, I can still perform with the skill I did all those years ago! 🙂

Haha, this is funny, what a great skill to have learnt. I think Heidi was one of those programmes that contributed to wanting to work outside, yodelling or otherwise.

I loved Heidi, not sure it was really my brothers’ thing! Give it a go, it is very liberating. I would however suggest being out of sound of anyone if you do, unlike me!

Well, I am impressed. Perhaps you could add some Mongolian overtone chanting to your repertoire. I am pretty good at it but I have to wait until I am alone to do it or I get funny looks .

I will have to look into that, I wonder if there is a You Tube for me to learn from?

Bravo to G Junior for not being surprised. Heidi (the book) was a great childhood favourite of mine. In fact, whenever well meaning people tell me that cheese isn’t good for me, I think to myself, “If it was good enough for Heidi, it’s good enough for me”.

Glad to hear that you are also a fan! I think it might be time for a remake, I may be a little too old to play the lead role, perhaps I could be yodelling advisor?

Yodeling consultant, I should think.
