    Thank you, Mr Beckett for your great lessons...
    .....my children are old enough to understand what you say , and too young for me to explain all the "grown-up" language !! lol
    Therefore, you are my teacher, and I may actually finish reading this story thanks to your lesson 🤣
    Ps... to anyone who hasn't done so, watch these videos with captions, your life will never be the same again... clearly the computer struggles with cockney 😂😂💜

    If you're doing school, why not try one in your implied comfort zone? Shop/Industrial Arts class?
    Maybe you can explain how to make a lamp or a stool? You can mix your unique style of teaching with a bit of the old DIY.

You can slide some Darwin in there with it. Is it a bird? Is it a dinosaur? People still be arguing about it! (It's probably not a bird ancestor ftr but they thought it was for a long time and there was mad beef between the scientists involved when it was discovered.)
