Here are my five tops tips to make you a super star at small talk…
* Practise small talk with people you meet in everyday situations such as shop assistants, waiters and strangers on the bus and train.
* Read a lot and watch the news so you have something to say about what’s happening in the world.
* Play where you feel more comfortable. You might find it easier to talk to strangers in a bookshop or coffee shop than a club or bar.
* Don’t drink to help you relax and loosen up. It will only seem dippy.
* Don’t take rejection personally. You can’t expect to hit it off with everyone.
