I am gonna take a gander at some tips so as to find more peace. Your channel is so uplifting and enticing to me that I just can't get enough of it and I wanna watch more of your handy videos. You are great and no slouch on teaching English. Your prowess at the language is awe-inspiring.

We were talking about Queen Elizabeth and the Queen Mum one day and she said (affectionately) that the Queen was a “good old stick”. When I returned to the US she sent me an email saying that she was sending me a package and that she thought I will be “well chuffed” when I receive it.
