[00:01.040] --- lesson 15 Fifty pence worth of trouble
[00:06.680] --- Listen to the tape then answer the question below.
[00:12.320] --- Did George get anything for his fifty pence? what?
[00:19.200] Children always appreciate small gifts of money.
[00:22.840] Mum or dad, of course, provide a regular supply of pocket money, but uncles and aunts are always a source of extra income.
[00:32.720] With some children, small sums go a long way.
[00:37.480] If fifty pence pieces are not exchanged for sweets, they rattle for months inside money boxes.
[00:44.840] Only very thrifty children manage to fill up a money box.
[00:49.080] For most of them, fifty pence is a small price to pay for a nice big bar of chocolate.
[00:55.520] My nephew, George, has a money box but it is always empty.
[01:01.360] Very few of the fifty pence pieces and pound coins I have given him have found their way there.
[01:08.360] I gave him fifty pence yesterday and advised him to save it.
[01:13.280] Instead he bought himself fifty pence worth of trouble.
[01:17.840] On his way to the sweet shop, he dropped his fifty pence and it bounced along the pavement and then disappeared down a drain.
[01:27.560] George took off his jacket, rolled up his sleeves and pushed his right arm through the drain cover.
[01:35.800] He could not find his fifty pence piece anywhere, and what is more, he could not get his arm out.
[01:43.440] A crowd of people gathered round him and a lady rubbed his arm with soap and butter, but George was firmly stuck.
[01:51.360] The fire brigade was called and two fire fighters freed George using a special type of grease.
[01:58.880] George was not too upset by his experience
[02:01.840] because the lady who owns the sweet shop heard about his troubles and rewarded him with a large box of chocolates.
