Ooookay – it’s to do with a common teaching resource often maligned by ALTs but rather favoured by JH teachers

keine Ahnung!
roast beef/ woolwich…..eh?
kate - 16 11 05 - 05:37
Um, bells?
Big Ben is a bell. Drinking tea before roast beef could be high tea, so you use a bell to call the waitress. And teh number 42 is a bus which has a bell which u use to tell the driver to stop.

Haha! Good work everyone. I like Martin’s answer the best so far, so he’s on course for the prize at the moment. You’ve got until Friday, and then I’ll post the answer.

What, might one enquire, is the singificance of that particular bus? Or are we talking generically about those old skool red buses here? Ist mir eigentlich wurscht, bin aber trotzdem neugierig…

The answer is that they are all to be found in chapter 5 of the Total English text books. Martin wins the prize for best answer. A bonus question for those who aren’t rolling their eyes and groaning at the anality of the question: Can you name the tube station pictured overleaf?
