180 – Elections and Nigel Farage Erections 😁

A very serious analysis of Thursday’s election is the main topic of today’s show 😁 We do also find time to talk about BUSHY eyebrows 🤨, taking your school bag to parties 🎒, how to NOT pay for university 💸 and much more! There’s lots of RnR vocab, so get your headphones on, sit back and just keeeeeeeep on ROCKin’, baby! 👊

The RnR vocab that you will learn in today’s show:

That hashtag is following me around like a bad smell
My heart sank when you said that
I’m thinking of throwing my hat into the ring
You’ve got too many skeletons in the closet now
I couldn’t stomach Corbyn being in power
It really sort of warms your heart
It’s so blatantly racist
The conservatives have raised tuition fees from £3,000 to £9,000
Labour want to scrap tuition fees
Will they write off my debt?
For a few years I managed to dodge the money, but they tracked me down
I know it still grates you that you didn’t go to university
I don’t want to show my political alliance
She has to go through that experience
If there’s one thing how to kill a hard’on
I do linger (at parties)
I was in no danger of pulling
We’ve given listeners a really in-depth (very thorough) analysis
You can tell me I’ve got bushy eyebrows

RnR Grammar

In today’s show, I spoke about the fact that I had listened to episode 37 and I said “but having listened to that episode….”

This form of -having + past participle is a really SEXY way to talk about the past and connects sentences beautifully, try things like “having done many things in my life….” and you’ll sound like a native – BOOM!
