It wasn't as easy as I had hoped it would be. My friends were confused by what I asked them to talk about, I suggested topics such as cinema, music and film as i know that they are interested in these areas but the conversation did not flow naturally. I got about a minute way through recording when they started to complain that they didn't know what to say. I left the microphone with them and went inside, I later found that they had been talking about the problems with mobile phones but the recording would not be useful as i will not be able to get the female group talking about the same thing.
