Oh what scandalous pitch And how naughty you are; what derring do and joy!" "Yes darling, beside himself he called me a witch!" "Oh praise indeed darling for a witch is what you are! But do tell me darling Nell, did you twavel vewy far?" " Indeed darling. We dwove awound the woundabout; We heard lots of people sound their horns and shout! So being qwite afwaid, we went and joined the A1 Which as you know darling is a vewy stwaight woad. The dwiver didn't mind at all at my holding a gun To his head! He consigned himself and just followed My orders as what to do next. I felt like an icecweem; Stwabewwy and cweem icecweem. It was yummy.!" "Oh dear Nell, what a gas! What a fabulous scweam!"

Was that the bell?" Now please read out loud with a posh English accent; it will make a difference and you may even laugh at yourself reading so. Edward
