Podcast 185 On The Edge (B1 Story)


Listen Later

Write to Mike Bilbrough to ask a question or give an opinion.

In Telmah's life, very little happens. His garden is really the only thing he seems to care about. But one day, a neighbour loses her dog, and Telmah's life suddenly becomes much more complicated than he would like.

These are the B1 expressions I explain from the story:
be just about to do sth
believe it or not
feel sorry for
a sense of humour
straight away
be fond of sb/sth
keen on sth
shortly afterwards
just in case


What do you think about Telmah. Is there a little of him in all of us?
