I loved the idea of this and made up a 'cockney-slang' story. Alas, my residents found it very confusing and it did not go down too well. May be it was a big ask for Australians to understand if even Londoners can't. We had a good laugh but I think I will shelve this one under 'too hard'.
Thank you for your input Andrea
Sometimes things don’t work out the way we planned
I am sure you did a good job of salvaging the activity
If something really doesn’t work out you should always have a go to activity in mind
Personally I like to do some type of sing-along
Thanks again for sharing
Hey, all. When "Wiggles" were on TV, my little son was singing and dancing, and me, too.
"Everybody clap, (Clap, clap, clap), everybody sing, la, la, la, la, la~~~~" I was singing,
"Everybody crap, (crap, crap, crap), so on as English is second language for a loooong time...
Ha, Ha!

Thought you might like these to work out.
On yer Loaf of Bread, you've got your Barnet Fair (or maybe a Syrup of Figs). On yer Boat Race, you have yer Mince Pies, King Lears and I Suppose. In yer North and South you've got yer Hampstead Heath. Yer Loaf sits on yer Gregory Peck, which sits on yer Noddy Holder. If you're a woman you might have Bristol Cities (or Thrupenny Bits) on yer Bristol and West.
We've all got a pair of Chalk Farms poking out with a pair of German Bands at the end. In yer Derby Kelly lives yer Newington Butts. Don't eat too much in case yer Fish and Chips start expanding.
