"I believe so" he replied "What is that thing on your face?" he asked rudely

*I've just realised that in 20 posts are hero hasn't made it into the exam room yet, and there are only 26 letters in the alphabet! Should we hurry him along, or are we allowed to over-run the 26 letters?* |

*I've just realised that in 20 posts are hero hasn't made it into the exam room yet, and there are only 26 letters in the alphabet! Should we hurry him along, or are we allowed to over-run the 26 letters?* The way I was thinking of it, the last sentence would begin with 'T' (ie you'd do 'T' at the beginning and end, making 27 sentences in all). Don't think it really matters if we over-run though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 'Nice of you, thanks' , I said, as I ran into the exam room, wiping my face. |

Picking myself up, I played through all my pieces, scales and sightreading, and then tried the aural.

'Quick off the mark, aren't you?' grumbled the examiner, who was still unscrewing the cap from his fountain pen.

"Some promptness of response is commendable" he retorted. "But going too fast is never a good idea."

Very frequently she would stray from her mother's side to chase the butterflies that fluttered through the meadow.

When she was hungry she could eat the lush green grass, and when she was thirsty she could drink from the stream flowing through the meadow - what a good life it was!
