過去形

in the beautiful English countryside and we went for a walk and had a really lovely conversation.

And we were talking about our childhood memories so things that we used to do in the past that

we don't do anymore and I thought what a great opportunity for you guys to listen to some

really natural English conversation. We don't change our accents, we don't try and slow

down for you guys. This is really natural British English so listen to us put the subtitles

on, ok? If you need a bit of help add the subtitles and yeah I just hope you enjoy it.

Eat Sleep Dreamers how are you? Welcome, you might notice I'm with someone. I'm with my

sister. Hello. This is my sister Anya or Annie as I like to call her. So I've come out here

to the countryside where she lives. We're going for a walk, it's absolutely beautiful

around here. The green trees, the leaves, the grass, beautiful British countryside.

So we were talking about our childhood memories and I wanted to share that with you guys.

Now one amazing thing I remember about visiting Grandma was that she'd make this amazing chocolate

pudding and chocolate sauce. I mean that was. The best dessert ever! It was amazing. And

she never gave us the recipe. No. And she denied that it was the best dessert ever and

even that she used to make it but we used to think it was amazing. Yeah she'd make it

for us every time we went there and yeah she never gave us the recipe which we are very

upset about. Eat Sleep Dreamers really quickly check out the field here, look at this. English

countryside. And a telephone line as well yeah. So yeah Grandma used to cook some amazing

food and I think maybe that's one thing that you notice or that you remember as a kid about

visiting your Grandma or your Grandfather is just the cooking. What else did she used

to cook for us? Lemon chicken. That was amazing and just traditional English food. British

food. Roasts and I was going to say lasagna. Lasagna, traditional English food like lasagna.

Lamb chops! Lamb chops yep with mint sauce. She was a great cook. Yeah pork chops, she

Another memory that I've got is when we were naughty. When Annie and I were naughty our

Mum used to give us television bans. Oh huge! Yeah, that was the worst and you used to say

'well I don't care anyway' and she'd go 'ok well that's another day then' and we'd be

like 'I don't care about that either' 'right well that's another day'. Oh no! I used to

hate that. So yeah, so a television ban. So you'd done something naughty and Mum would

say right no television for one day and as Annie said suddenly if you said I don't care

then you'd have two days and it would grow and it would just be awful. Yeah and thing

is nowadays television ban, I mean my kids don't even really watch tv, you know it would

have to be an iPad ban. They would hate that. They would hate that. Some kind of device

ban. Yeah. But yeah TV they'd be like seriously whatever. Yeah, we don't care. That was awful.

That was the worst and then you know there was that one time that you. Dad was telling

you off and he said Thomas come down the stairs and you got yourself dressed up fully in Knight's

gear with your wooden sword and you descended the stairs to take on Dad and you made him

laugh so much that he forgot what he was angry about. But I was really serious, I was like

furious. Yeah of course you were. I was going to attack him. But that's what made it so

cute you were only about four. Oh we're going in here. It's so quiet here Eat Sleep Dreamers.

Not like in London where it's really noisy. It's so quiet I love it. One day we'll get

you out here. I'm not sure, I'm not sure. Move away from London, come and join us and

the birds. I could live in the countryside. Yeah for about a day. For a day then I've

So do you remember Tom? Every summer we used to spend in Broadstairs? I do, I do yes. Six

weeks, we'd pack our bags at the start of the summer, get on the train from Victoria

and travel down. It took us two hours because it was a slow chug chug train in those days.

A chug chug train, interesting English there Anya! Chug chug, I guess it kind of means

a slow train, right? Yeah, it chugged along, it didn't speed along, not like now. And we'd

arrive by the sea in Broadstairs in our little cottage and spend the summer just living like

little urchins in a t-shirt and a pair of shorts and we'd have all our meals on the

beach. Picnic lunches, eggy rolls and then in the evening we'd have a bbq and then fall

in to bed absolutely exhausted and wake up in the morning ready for some more fun. Very

simple, simple life. Yeah, every summer just the same thing and remember we used to go

crabbing. So there are rocks by the beach and you'd go and try and catch crabs which

are sort of shellfish? Yeah crustaceans. Crustaceans yeah, and we'd try, we used to try and catch

as many crabs as we could and one year we got so many and we gave them names. Barnacle

Bill. Lairy Larry. Lairy because he was angry. Yeah, it means angry. So we would catch these

crabs and then release them and I remember we used to scream so loudly when we released

them because they'd try and like. Catch your toes. Catch you, yeah. And our Mum could hear

us screaming from the beach. She'd be sitting in a deckchair on the beach and we'd be miles

out on the rocks and she'd be able to hear us scream and know that we'd released the

So another fun at the beach activity was the great wave game, do you remember that one?

Yeah we used to play this really super fun game where we'd run away, I've forgotten how

we play it. So a big wave comes rolling in and you have to run from one spot to another

on the beach but as close to the tide line as possible without it getting your feet wet.

Yeah that's right. And as the tide came in it got harder and harder so sometimes we'd

play it up against the beach wall so we literally had nowhere else to go and this wave would

come in and we'd run and if we got our toes wet then we lost so the wave won. And we also

used to play the great ball in the sky game. Oh that was a fun one. When our Dad used to

stand on this sort of raised platform and hit a ball up in to the air and we had to

catch it. There was about you know how ever many of us, a couple, four or five people

and if we caught it then we'd get the point and if we miss it he'd get the point and whoever

got to ten first won the game and that was always really exciting. I love the way that

everything, it used to be the great wave game, the great ball in the sky game. Nothing could

ever just be kind of you know low key. It had to be the biggest, the best, the greatest.

Yeah, exactly and that did make it extra special being like 'we going to play the great ball

in the sky game.' And I remember dad mentioned it in his wedding speech when I got married,

he stood up and did a speech and he mentioned the great ball in the sky game and all our

friends who used to come to Broadstairs came running up saying your dad mentioned the great

ball in the sky game. They loved it! Yeah it was very memorable. I think it's a game

that we should continue to play with. We'll move it through the generations definitely.

So when we were kids and we had lots of, I just remember birthday parties as children.

Yeah. Bit kitchen table filled with children, miscellaneous children, dad getting his guitar

out. So our dad used to play the acoustic guitar for all the children and he'd sing

these songs, just amazing, like so much fun when you think about it. And he put together

a party tape so we'd sing things like Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and went off

to the circus. Do you want to sing that for us really quickly? And we also used to have

like little mini discos. He used to be a dj, didn't he? Yeah, back in his cooler younger

days. Well yeah when he was cool and young. And so he'd play songs like Agadoo. Ohhh so

pretty. Countryside! So yeah, I just remember as a kid just dancing and singing and eating

chocolate cake. Yeah that was basically your childhood. Yeah, you remember it well. I'm

a little bit older Eat Sleep Dreamers. You can't tell though, right? That was a terrible

Guys, how was that? I hope you enjoyed it. Now what I'd like you to do is in the comments

below I would like you to try and write a sentence using used to or would telling me

about your past habits, ok? So something from childhood, a childhood memory that you have
