Sandbags at the Stall
Sandbags at the stall with Aunt Oy and Tee: did you manage to lift the stove; I managed, but the fridge I couldn't lift; did the sandbags come in time; twenty came in time; I moved the pots in time, the rice I didn't; the gas tank I can't lift, Jack, come and help; I can manage only one tank; then both of you, and the noodles in time for lunch: managed and couldn't, in time and too late.
