Monthly news from podcastsinenglish.com Dear Learner As we write this it is, incredibly, almost 40 º C outside. Our last podcast in July was Feeling hot, hot, hot! and it is certainly the case right now! The best thing to do, perhaps, is take a dip. Listen to Can you swim? and hear how we learned to like the water. This is one of our summer podcasts. Check out the sidebar for some more. We have also added to the sidebar more 'podcasts of the month'. For level 1 we have Hotel Alicante, listen to hear if we enjoyed our stay there. For level 2 there is one of our pie videos. Jackie was lucky to go Whale watching a few years ago, watch to find out what she saw. Then for level 3 Pam talks about being left-handed in a right-handers world: My left hand. Meanwhile, we start the month talking about one of the countries that make up the UK, and one which has a new sporting star. Listen to The land of the red dragon and find out the name of the country and the star. This is for level 2. Remember that we interviewed Simon last month about being a professional freelance Sportswriter. We have a special offer for pie listeners! Simon is giving away a copy of his book on Portuguese football. If you would like the chance to win a copy just write I would like a copy of Simon's book on our Facebook page. Offer ends 19 August 2018. All the very best for learning English in 2018! Richard and Jackie The pie team |
