PART 2 · LESSON 16 OF 30 · 30 MINUTES
The Delivery
The shed on a Tuesday past eleven, the planks on the landing, Ton counting and Jack on the phone: delivered short, only sixteen; the boy miscounted, twenty went out; we counted twice, the thickness is wrong too; the inch and a half isn't ready yet; an inch can't be used; then next time I send the inch and a half; Thursday, deliver it complete; and I can't find the paint either: a verb and its result in two words.
