This should give our comparatives and superlatives a shake down! :grin:

Hi Ed,

…jump right in - the water is lovely!

The group is really friendly with a range of skill levels. You can listen or speak as much or as little as you want but you will fit right in - I promise! :grin:

I’ll send you the zoom invite via Private Message.

Sat 18th at Noon

I’m going to be travelling back from Wales, so not going to be there…so, you could talk about anything, nothing or everything - or the topic below: :grin:

Topic - Moving on from your Petrol or Diesel car !

  • How much do you use a car anyway?..

  • …what would moving on from it mean for you? - biting the bullet and buying an electric car? - switching to Public transport only? - using one of these rent-by-the-hour schemes just for critical trips?

  • …what is stopping you from moving on? when do you expect to make this change? (What needs to happen beforehand?)

  • …or maybe you’ve made the switch already - tell us how it’s gone - upsides and downsides!

Topic - Houses and Homes

  • …what type of property is your home - can you describes it?

  • …is it the right size for you now? …too big or too small maybe? Is everything perfect or does work need doing? :thinking:

  • …what about the garden - same questions - too big/ too small - work need doing? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

  • …would you consider moving?..and if so where to?..and what would you be looking for in your new home?

This should give our vocab for homes and gardens and those descriptive skills a workout! :slight_smile:

Topic - Tidy or Tip?

I am going surfing tomorrow! :surfing_man: :sunglasses: :grin: so it’s over to you for discussion.

This is a topic suggestion from Eileen!:

  • …do you like to keep your house tidy? What about clean? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

  • …do you keep things to a minimum or keep everything just in case?! :thinking:

  • …maybe tell us how long it takes to clean aspects of your house and how often you do it? :open_mouth::face_with_hand_over_mouth:

This should help clean and tidy our vocab for homes! :slight_smile:
