Mitch:
[0:29] Her Majesty's ship.

Isi:
[0:30] Why are we on a ship?

Mitch:
[0:32] I don't know, because people are on a journey with us when they listen to the Easy English Podcast. And if we had to pick any mode of transport, we'd pick a boat.

Isi:
[0:40] I just realised that I didn't have this peach tea. Little fun fact for that.

Mitch:
[0:45] Fun fact.

Isi:
[0:46] For months and months.

Mitch:
[0:48] Fun fact.

Isi:
[0:49] I think I got a bit sick of it. I love a certain peach tea from Germany that we always bring to England.

Mitch:
[0:54] Oh yeah, you do. That has nothing to do with today's episode.
