are you doing here hello there hi everybody this is mr. Duncan in England

how are you today are you okay I hope so are you happy I really hope

you are feeling happy today because we are here again yes it is another day of

isolation of separation of segregation living in isolation during these very

strange times however don't forget I am here with you I will try to be with you

here live on YouTube every day so here we go

it is Tuesday everyone Tuesday has arrived how are you doing are you okay

don't forget there is something I want to say to you now don't forget you are

not alone you are not alone I am here with you so wherever you are in the

world and whatever you are doing to keep yourself safe during this very strange

period of time don't forget you are not alone because I'm doing the same thing

to be honest I'm also doing the same thing as you I'm keeping myself away

from other people I'm having to protect myself however the weather today is

lovely today oh it's so nice we have a lot of sunshine it is so warm it is

around 15 Celsius at the moment 15 Celsius

can you believe it 15 Celsius it is feeling very warm so I hope you are okay

wherever you are in the world tell me where you are because I'm always

interested to find out where people are around the world also I will do a quick

test to make sure that you can both hear me and see me so if you can hear me okay

please say mr. Duncan and we can hear you and if you can see me if you are

unlucky enough to be able to see my face then you can say we can see you mr.

Duncan as well ah Tuesday so a big hello to all those in the UK as well because

we had a lot of people yesterday joining us we had many many yesterday on the

live chat in the end can you believe it we had nearly 10,000 people passing

through yesterday incredible so a very large number of people so hello to the

UK hello to all those in the UK who haven't got Disney Plus so for those who

haven't subscribed to Disney Plus hello to you if you if you noticed in the news

yesterday Disney Plus launched here in the UK so I would imagine all across the

UK at the moment there are many there are many people watching Disney Plus

with their children because all over the country mums dads children all of the

family are together they have no choice and if you are one of those people if

you are one of those people at the moment stuck in the house with your

children and your husband or wife all I can say is I'm sorry to hear that

Thank You Danielle and we have of course the live stream one thing I've noticed

today is there are lots of flies buzzing around there seem to be flying

is everywhere so what has happened the warm weather has actually brought many

of the Flies out from their hibernation and of course some of the Flies have

hatched out as well so I am surrounded by flies they are all over the place so

if from time to time I seem a little bit distracted the reason is because I am

surrounded by very annoying flies they keep buzzing around me maybe I smell bad

who knows and of course talking of smelling bad

things are getting worse everyone I now have two pieces of toilet paper just two

squares of toilet paper that's all I have left just two I used one this

morning and now I only have two left so now I am down to my last two pieces of

toilet paper things are getting bad they really are they're getting serious

everyone and there is a Robin in the tree next to me watching you might be

able to hear it singing from time to time I am surrounded by wildlife and

nature quite a few people are asking why are you outside and why don't you have

your mask well as I explained yesterday I do live in the countryside I am very

lucky I'm a lucky man because I can actually come outside because there's no

one here I am in complete isolation in my garden

yes I have my little daffodil here something to cheer is up on this strange

day so things in the UK are very weird and I

have a feeling they might be very strange where you are as well so I will

try to be with you every day during this strain

period of time and did you hear the news last night here in the UK they have

really started to make sure that people stay in their homes Thank You mr.

blackbird for saying hello on my livestream so

last night it was announced here in the UK that people will have to stay in

their homes they have to stay at home they have absolutely no choice they have

no choice whatever so a lot of people now are being forced to stay at home so

first of all they were saying please stay at home if you can now they are

saying you must stay at home you must this particular flower by the way is

called a daffodil the word is daffodil and there it is a lovely yellow daffodil

and you can see that the sun is shining here today you can see that the sun is

shining on this beautiful daffodil do you remember many years ago you used

to be able to get flowers that were dance do you remember that I think it

was way back in the 1980s you could get little flowers and when

you played music nearby they were dance like this for example to do to do to do

to do to do to do to do doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

isn't that nice so the daffodil is in my garden daffodil daffodil daffodil

there are many daffodils around at this time of the year because it is spring

here in the UK and I hope you are feeling good today so I have a slight

emergency in the fact that I have almost run out of toilet paper I only have a

little bit of toilet paper left in fact I've lost it completely now

where is it there it is so this is my last toilet paper in the whole world so

the big question is what will I use after when I've run out of toilet paper

what will I use next well I suppose here's something I found

I could use a copy of the Much Wenlock Herald can you see it so there it is so

this is the thing that gets pushed through our letter boxes this is the

local newspaper you might call it a magazine so some people might say that

this is a magazine or a newspaper however this is the thing that they push

through the letterbox of all of our houses so the Wenlock Herald is going to

be used as toilet paper if I can't get any normal toilet paper I will have to

use this so I will have to improvise by using the Much Wenlock Herald

so there are lots of sheets of paper here that I can use my local parish

magazine I'm sure that will upset a lot of people I think so I think so

hello to the live chat isn't it nice to see you here so many people are already

here with me hello Hirsch am hello Florence hi Florence I love your name by

the way Mavi is here yesterday I had three

pieces of toilet paper today I own I only have two I only have two pieces of

toilet paper left so I I have almost run out of toilet paper hello to Mary moon

hello Mary moon nice to see you here today

where are you watching don't forget I am always interested to find out where you

are in the world so wherever you are in the world you are welcome to watch

I'm in England a lot of people ask mr. Duncan where are you where are you in

the UK because the United Kingdom is well it's a big country I suppose it's

not as big as other countries so some countries are much larger than you than

the United Kingdom however there are others that aren't so I will now show

you where I am exactly in the UK so here we have a photograph of the UK there it

is you can see a map of the United Kingdom but where am I

I am i will get my little pointer there it is

can you see so I am around there that is where I am in the UK does that help you

in any way so there you can see that is where I am in the UK right there

so now you know the place I live in is called Much Wenlock and that is where it

is on the map so now you can see exactly where in the UK I am right there so now

you know where is London on the map well London is very far away from me London

is way down there so London is way down there on the map way down there so there

is London down there and hi I'm all the way up there so I am around a hundred

and sixty miles maybe even more so around a hundred and sixty maybe a

hundred and seventy miles away from London a very long way I'm also very far

away from many towns and many cities as well so the

reason why I'm normally here is to teach English I talk about the English

language I talk about English words and sometimes I like to stand in my garden

and talk to you as well which is what I'm doing today I am surrounded by birds

today birds are everywhere and you might see behind me that bird up there can you

see the bird behind me that is not a real bird and it is not a duck

some of you have said mr. Duncan is that a duck behind you no it isn't so that

isn't a duck that is actually a bird called

heron it is a heron so this particular bird is a very large bird and it eats

fish so around here the heron will often hunt for fish in people's fish ponds so

the Heron however this one behind me isn't real so that particular Heron is

made of plastic so that one isn't a real one okay

hello also - Russ hello Rosa hello Palmyra you are very lucky mr.

Duncan I am not bad but very busy with information from work online this is

another thing I've mentioned already yesterday a lot of people are now

working from home because they can carry on working because they have a computer

or maybe most of their work is done online and that's one of the reasons why

I'm doing this is well I'm doing the same thing so because I have a computer

and also a mobile phone I can stand in my garden for as long as I want talking

to you live across the internet so I think it's pretty good to be honest I do

like doing this I love it because I'm in

English addict and I have a feeling that you are in English addict as well hello

to Charlotte hello Charlotte so you don't live in an industrial place no I

don't I don't live in a place where there are factories or lots of cars so I

live in a place that is not industrial however in the past this particular area

is well-known because it was where the Industrial Revolution started so in

Shropshire this is actually officially the place where the Industrial

Revolution began and it changed the whole world so I don't know how much of

the history you know about the UK but at the beginning of the Industrial

Revolution just over there behind me is where it all started it's where it all

began I used to live in a house and it was very peaceful says Florence that's

very nice thank you very much vu vu hyung is here

hello vu vu nice to see you here today as well we are live on YouTube and it's

mr. Duncan that's me by the way Hesham asks a very interesting question how do

I learn two languages at the same time well you have to divide your time

between those two languages so if you want to learn two languages at the same

time well I would say that it's not easy to do what you have to do is split your

time or divide your time between those two things so you can't do two things at

the same time especially when they are very similar so if you are learning two

languages at the same time well I think you need to divide your tongue between

those two languages so you can't learn them

together because I think that's too much information I think your brain will

start to melt to be honest

HAMB HAMB e dres hello hamid reza asks by the way oh well when we say by the

way we mean Oh another thing or maybe you are mentioning something that is

connected the thing you are already saying or talking about oh by the way or

maybe it is something that you've just remembered that you want to say so when

we say by the way we mean oh I have another thing to tell you I have

something else to say by the way don't forget to join me here

on YouTube so when we say by the way we mean here is something I want to tell

you here is something I want to mention so maybe it is not connected to the

thing you are talking about I can hear you quite clearly but can you turn up

the volume I can't turn up the volume but you can you have some control on

your computer or on your mobile phone so I can't really talk any louder because

this is it this is as loud as I can speak I'm afraid

unless I start shouting in which case I might start annoying people have you

invited us to your garden I will be the one to accept your infirmity or

invitation thank you optimistic I love your name by the way to be optimistic

means to look on the positive side you are an optimistic person you are a

person who always looks on the positive side you are looking at something in a

good way in a colorful way instead of looking at things in black and white

so a person who is optimistic always looks on the bright side always looks on

the bright side of this strange thing we call life is mr. Steve appearing no he

isn't because he's working so steve is still

having to work are there any people who are ill in Much Wenlock no there are not

and I am hoping that it stays that way so I don't want it you see I don't want

anyone to become ill here definitely not definitely not as usual I'm going to

show you the phrases that I want to show you every time I come here on YouTube

just to remind you that life can be unfair sometimes however there are some

positive things that we can say as well would you like to have a look again okay

here's the first one every cloud has a silver lining every

cloud has a silver lining when something looks bad when something looks as if it

will never end maybe a bad situation that you think will never end well can I

just say that every cloud has a silver lining you can always find something

positive to take away from a bad situation when things are not going

right so every cloud has a silver lining if you look closely you can always find

something positive even when things seem bad

he's another one I like this one as well another nice phrase make the best of a

bad deal make the best of a bad deal if you make the best of a bad deal it

means that you try to find something positive from a bad situation so maybe

something is going wrong in your life maybe you have to stay at home well you

can always make the best of a bad deal and when we say bad deal we mean a bad

situation a bad situation something that might be seen as negative you have to

turn it around and make it something that is positive instead try to make it

something that is positive here's another one I like this one

I might even sing a little song always look on the bright side of life I hope

this will help you to keep a smile on your face always look on the bright side

when things seem bad when when things seem as if they are going wrong always

try to look on the positive side always try to look on the bright side

try to bring a little bit of sunshine into your life and also into your mind

as well and it will help you a lot because I do it as well so maybe during

this strange time you can contact some friends you haven't spoken to for a long

time maybe you can get in touch with a family member maybe someone you haven't

spoken to for years maybe you have their phone number or their address maybe you

can phone them you can call them and of course these days we can call people

instantly on our phones

there is a pheasant behind me can you see the pheasant maybe not

hello mr. pheasant don't think you can see there's so much going on here in the

garden today so much going on in the garden yes welcome everyone if you are

just joining us to those in the UK and around the world is well hello and

welcome Luis Mendez is here today hello Luis a big bond draw to you I hope

things are ok it's like I'm broadcasting from a zoo there are animals everywhere

around me the noise you just heard was a pheasant there is a pheasant sitting

just behind me so there are animals everywhere around me well here's another

one here is another lovely optimistic phrase there is light at the end of the

tunnel there is always light at the end of the tunnel however bad things seem

however bad things might be there is always light at the end of the tunnel

and that is what keeps me going so when I think about the future I

always know that things will get better eventually so maybe things seem bad now

however there is always light at the end of the tunnel there is always a glimmer

a little glimmer in the distance there is light just ahead of you sometimes we

can't even see it sometimes the light at the end of the tunnel isn't visible yet

there is always light at the end of the tunnel even if you can't see it it is

there I like this phrase very much

I can tell you why they pheasant the pheasant is feeling very excited at the

moment because he's looking for some lady pheasants hmm we are coming up to

the breeding season for many birds including pheasants pheasant so the male

pheasant is currently looking for some girlfriends yes you heard me right

not one girlfriend but maybe three four or five so this is something you might

not realize the male pheasant normally has maybe five or maybe six girlfriends

at the same time a very interesting way of living for some people maybe

including pheasants Vittorio hello Vittorio hello mr. Duncan how can I see

how can I see it it is a beautiful day in England I am sorry that you've run

out of toilet paper but please do not use the newspaper it is not very

comfortable you can use the grass yes I suppose so I have a lot of green grass

behind me so instead of using paper i i'm i t able to use some of that mm-hmm

I like your comments today some of your comments are very funny how do I get a

wrench beside my name well all of the people who are moderators here have been

watching me for many many years so all of the people who are moderators with

the little wrench next to their names have been regular viewers and also

regular commenters on my live stream so that's the reason why you will see

people like Pedro Belmont and also you will see Luis Mendez so they are

moderate right here on the live chat and there

are three others as well who are not here at the moment lolly lolly says that

pheasant is very lucky because he can have five girlfriends I know it's very

strange isn't it so the wrench when you see the blue

wrench next to the person's name that means they are a moderator so they can

control what happens on the live chat just in case people start to say rude

things and it does happen from time to time

hello the green grass can be used as toilet paper but I think it's a bad idea

says Mavi well we will see what happens we will see how desperate I get in the

future because at the moment I have I only have a little bit of toilet paper

left this is all I have just this so this will have to keep me going for

maybe three four maybe even five weeks how am I going to make this list how am

I going to make this list oh it's broken oh no my toilet paper has

come apart please no don't do that there we go so there is my toilet paper

that is all I have left I will have to start improvising with something else

hello lamb Fong Lam Fong you win who says hello mr. Duncan hello to you as

well I think you might be watching in Vietnam hello also to Marina mr. Duncan

don't panic for the toilet paper you can use kitchen paper yes I could but

unfortunately I've almost run out of that because last week we had an

emergency in the kitchen so all this water a lot of water started

spreading on the floor in the kitchen so we had to use kitchen paper to talk to

wipe up all of water we had to soak the water

unfortunately so last week yes we did have an emergency here there was a water

leak in the kitchen so we've used almost all of that we've used it almost I guess

you had this red shirt that you wear for many years hamid reza you are right i've

had this t-shirt or should i say this shirt so the shirt i'm wearing now i've

had for many years as you know i don't like to throw my clothes away i always

like to keep my clothes for as long as i can so this particular shirt i've had

for many many years this hat i've had for about two years so this is about

maybe 13 maybe 14 years old this is only 2 years old so i hope

that's answered your question mr. duncan you can always go next door and ask your

neighbours for some toilet paper I can't do that I can't do that I'm very shy

don't you realize I'm a very shy boy I can't go knocking on my neighbor's doors

saying hello hello it's me it's me from next door

can I please borrow some toilet paper I can't do that surely not hello Emanuela

Emanuela nice to see you here today welcome to my sunny garden we have the

beautiful purple Heather so that is Heather behind me the purple flower very

beautiful and it also has a very nice smell as well it smells beautiful oh I'm

going to have a little smell a little sniff of the aroma of the

Heather just a moment it smells like lavender it actually smells like

lavender it has a beautiful sweet smell like lavender and the color is also my

favorite color purple and behind the Heather you can also see look at the top

you can see some yellow flowers the yellow flowers are daffodils daffodils

but the smell hmm even around me I can smell the flowers in the air it's lovely

hello to quani hello quani I have been your student for a couple of years from

Somalia hello Somalia nice to see you here as well welcome to my little garden

here in England and I'm talking to you live now across YouTube I have some

skincare that has the smell of lavender well can I just say there are many

things that have that beautiful aroma or scent so when we say the smell of

something when we express the way something smells we will say scent the

scent s c e NT scent o very nice scent or of course we can say aroma thank you

mister pheasant is getting very excited we can also say aroma so the aroma will

go up your nose we can also say scent as well the scent the smell the aroma

so at the moment I can smell lots of lavender in the garden at the moment

because the lavender is coming out into bloom because it's springtime here it is

springtime so here in the UK there have been some new measures some new things

that have been brought into law as a way of stopping people from going outside

and hanging around in big groups so I don't know if you saw it but Boris

Johnson the prime minister of this country has now said that people have to

stay indoors however you are allowed out once a day to go shopping and also to do

some exercise so you can go outside once a day to do some exercise and also to go

to the shops but you can only do it one time I don't know how they know how do

they know that you've only been outside once are they watching us maybe there is

a satellite in space watching what we are doing so they have said that you

can't go outside more than once to do some exercise and also you can't go

outside more than once to do some shopping but I don't know how they are

going to enforce that rule I don't know I have no idea anyway I don't have to

worry about that I don't have to worry because I am here on my own in the

middle of the countryside there's just me a very horny pheasant lots and lots

of birds as well one of my favorite flowers is lavender hello optimistic

nice to see you here as well again I love that word as I said earlier so yes

lavender we also have a lavender tree here in the garden but that hasn't come

out yet it's still too early unfortunately

but yes they have we have a lavender tree and also some lavender Heather as

well because I think this smell is gorgeous I really do yes

the pheasant the pheasant is the bird that we can hear sometimes making a loud

noise and I have a feeling you might hear it a lot of times today because the

pheasant is feeling very excited very excited I can see a bird behind you mr.

Duncan really oh yes there is there is a pigeon you might be able to see a pigeon

walking around hello mr. pigeon mr. pigeon

he's gone now he has gone so many people now are being

told that they must stay in their houses they have to stay at home shops have

closed so many shops have now closed their doors many businesses have ceased

trading so if you CST's it means you stopped you cease trading you stop

trading you don't do it anymore hello Anna the south of franca is famous for

its fields of lavender I can't see the live chat very clearly because the Sun

is now shining on my phone mr. Duncan do you agree that China must be extremely

punished why what for over the years there have been many outbreaks of

viruses that have come from many other countries as well many other countries

not only China so I think punishing China is not a good idea because when

you think about it there are many many diseases and illnesses that occur in

other parts of the world is well it just happens that this one doesn't have a

vaccine it doesn't have any vaccine at the moment so I think if you step

forward and start punishing countries then maybe in the future they won't tell

other people what is happening so you might create a feeling of secrecy if you

start punishing other countries so sometimes punishing other nations

countries or governments might not be a good idea

you might make things worse for the future that's just my opinion what do I

know

a lot of people on the live chat thank you very much to quani who says you are

my role model thank you very much Noemi says in Argentina we can't go out

to do any exercise only to do shopping and the police are saying all the time

that you have to stay at home there are people in jail because they don't do

this or they don't take part in this isolation wow I can't believe that so in

Argentina they are actually putting people in jail for not obeying the

isolation rules wow that's incredible that is incredible

here in the UK we can't do it because if we started throwing people in jail then

unfortunately our prisons would be full very quickly because it would appear in

certain parts of the UK people are actually ignoring the rules they are

still going out in large groups especially around London so apparently

there are still people walking around London in large groups there are there

are people going to the local markets and many many people are gathering

together so yes what we've decided to do here instead of putting people in prison

we've decided to just give them us give them a fine

so you find someone you tell them that they have to pay some money as

punishment I don't know I don't know how effective that will be but yes in

Argentina apparently they are they are saying you must go to prison and I

believe in France if I'm not mistaken in France you have to produce a document

you have to produce some paperwork to prove that you are allowed to go outside

Luciano hello Luciano nice to see you here as well

it is lie English live from England and yes I am

doing the same thing as you at the moment exactly the same thing as

you do you have any online English class well I don't teach on skype maybe that's

what you mean so I don't do Skype however I do have

hundreds of lovely video lessons that you can watch to help yourself improve

your English maybe you're listening maybe you're speaking or maybe you're

reading so all of these things are very important if you are learning English as

a Second Language hello to everybody on the live chat so no I don't teach

English one-to-one so maybe that's what you are asking so I don't give private

lessons because I do everything for free so this is something that I do but I

don't charge you for it so I like to give everyone a chance wherever you are

in the world I like to give people a chance to listen to English to improve

their English and also to experience the sound of the English language

as well hello Mavi so many places might make people guilty but the crime rate

might increase yes I think so well one of the interesting things here

something we haven't talked about here in the UK is crime no one's mentioned it

yet so whilst all the shops are closed and all of them all of the businesses

are closed you have to make sure that there are enough police in the street to

protect everyone Kalwa hello carbine your videos are

great I started watching your videos in 2011 Thank You mr. pheasant I have a

feeling we are going to hear a lot of that pheasant I think so I think so by

the way just behind me if you are wondering what the tree is behind me

there it is can you see it so that tree that is just behind me that

is a damson tree damson so a damson is a small grape it actually looks like a

small plum so this particular tree is just coming out because spring has

arrived so this is my lovely dams and tree which is just starting to come into

bloom the birds are coming out on the tree so I'm quite excited about that to

be honest I do like that very much I

don't know where they are going to put the criminals who disobey because

Argentinians don't like to follow the rules it's a little bit like that in the

UK you have groups of people who will follow the rules and then you have other

people who don't follow the rules so at the moment we are having difficulty with

those who are ignoring the rules they are ignoring they are not obeying the

rules so there are lots of people who are going out many many times to do

their shopping at the supermarkets and also they are going out visiting friends

or they're going out with many many other people so they are trying to stop

people from doing that so the more people stay apart the more people stay

in isolation the better the situation will be as time

goes by so that is what we are doing here even though some people have said

it's a bit late so one or two people have said that maybe we should have done

this a couple of weeks ago but anyway what's done is done that's what they say

what's done is done would you like to see some words I have

some words here just a moment I will get them for you here we go we have some

words connected to the situation that is happening at the moment and I have my

lovely little cursor do you like this it is like something you have on your

computer screen except very big so here is my little cursor you can see me you

can see the Heron over there you can see the daffodils you can see the noisy

pheasant or at least you can hear him and there you can see the lovely Heather

a Heather now we will look at some words would you like to see some words oh here

we go then curfew curfew so the word curfew normally is a restriction on

movement or being in a public place so quite often the word curfew will mean a

restriction on movement or even being outside so you might have a certain time

when people have to stay in the house so we call this a curfew curfew and I'm

sure in some countries they will eventually have curfews in their towns

and cities I think so here's another one lockdown

if you have a lockdown well we are hearing this word a lot at the moment a

lot of people are talking about lockdown and that means a place that is closed

off or maybe a place where people have to remain isolated they have to stay

away from other people sometimes the word lockdown can mean to have no

contact with anyone so you might be locked down so we have curfew lockdown

we might also say that things are closed so you close down the shops so closed

down you closed down the shops you have a curfew

you have a lockdown you have a closed down so things have been closed things

are no longer occurring closed down so the shops have closed down they have now

shipped for a very long time so we're looking at some words connected to the

situation that is happening at the moment oh here's another one

precautionary precautionary precautionary so when we say

precautionary we mean something that is done to prevent bad things from

happening so precautionary so you might say that people are being asked to stay

in their homes as a precaution or a precautionary measure we also talked

about social spacing as well how far away do people stay from each other how

far apart do people stay from each other we could also have the word isolate

isolate if you isolate yourself it means you

remove yourself from society you are away from other people you isolate

yourself we might also say that you are in isolation you are in isolation you

isolate yourself you are in isolation some words that are connected to this to

the situation it is happening at the moment mr. Duncan Thank You Luis can we

say cordon off yes if you cordon off something it means you

put the block you block the outside of an area so if you cordon off it means

you put a block around a certain area or a certain place you cordon off the

street you cordon off the city you isolate or you have a lockdown here are

some other ones maybe some of these words do you recognize maybe some of

them you don't we have the word quarantine quarantine if you are in

quarantine that means you have to stay away from other people normally at the

same time as receiving medical treatment so quite often if you are in quarantine

thank you if you are in quarantine it means you are having to stay away from

other people you are in a place quite often a place that is sterile or away

from other people and normally if you are in quarantine quite often you will

be in maybe a hospital or a place where you are receiving treatment segregate

now here's an interesting word this word has been used many times

is over history segregate if you segregate it means you divide people you

separate people you segregate maybe there is one group of people who you put

over there and maybe another group of people who you put over there you

segregate you divide a group of people for various reasons some of the reasons

of course are negative and not very nice and sometimes if we segregate sometimes

it can be for a good reason maybe during a crisis like this one that's happening

now segregate here's an interesting word and this is one that I heard used last

night on television so I was watching the news last night and I heard someone

use this word draconian I like this word the word draconian so when we talk about

draconian we say something that is very harsh maybe a law or a rule that has

been brought in by the government so when we use the word draconian it means

a harsh law or a rule that is very very brutal so some people have described

certain countries have having draconian laws especially at the moment so yes

here are some words you have quarantine you are separated from other people

segregate to divide people and draconian this describes something that is harsh

cruel unfair

we have some more words to look at I hope you are enjoying this I hope it's

not too boring yesterday we had a lot of people in the UK watching so if you are

watching in the UK at the moment please let me know please tell me where you are

in the UK and of course wherever you are in the world as well hello Florence

thank you very much saying hello thank you for your company

today here are some more words palek words and phrases oh so these are

words connected to panic and phrases words to do with the word panic panic so

here are two words we have alarm you might feel alarm or you might be alarmed

it's something terror so panic can also be described as terror

you are very worried you are afraid that something is happening horror shock you

can also have shock as well shock alarm terror shock horror

you could also say lose control you might lose control of your feelings you

might lose control of your emotions because you are panicking there's no

toilet paper left what am I going to wipe my bottom with you lose control we

could also say that you lose your senses so a person who has lost control they

lose their senses so you have lost your senses

you haven't gone crazy crazy

some other panic words and phrases you go into a panic you freak out

you freak out just like that freak out you go into a panic you freak out

you become fraught now I like this word can you see this word here fraught

brought you become fraught panic might be an overreaction so here is another

one panic might be described as an over

reaction can you see the word there over reaction so when we say overreaction it

means you are reacting you are reacting too much too much you are reacting too

much you might go into a panic so there is the last one there you might go into

a panic if you go into a panic it means you go from being calm to panicking you

go into a panic your emotional state changes from relaxed to panic very

quickly you go into a panic I hope you are

feeling good today I hope you are happy I'm in the garden once again this time

I'm with you on Tuesday I might be with you tomorrow I might be outside or I

might be in the studio tomorrow it really depends on what the weather is

doing so for those who have just joined me hello to you Lou

says the stock exchanges are freaking out could I say that mr. Duncan yes so

all of the people who have shares in companies and businesses at the moment

they are freaking out they really are because of what is happening hello to

shoes you ding hello to you a big me how to China nice to see you here nothing is

ever boring when you are doing things and a piece yep hello and a pichia or

ana pika nice to see you here as well how do you

say the right pronunciation of the word lost lost I will get close to my

microphone and I will say the word to you lost lost are you lost

have you have you been lost did you get lost

have you been lost somewhere did you lose yourself lost lost something that

you had but you don't have anymore lost

please can you be with us every day can you be with us every day mr. Duncan says

Mavi well I will try my best to be with you every day well I don't have anything

else to do you see because I'm doing the same thing as you so you are there in

isolation or I I imagine that you are however I'm also in isolation as well so

we are all in the same situation however as I always say you have to make the

best of a bad situation Lilia hello Lilia I didn't see you here

on the livestream hello Lilia Thank You mr. Duncan bye-bye friends and see you

Thank You Lilia that's very kind of you hello too

why's Allah why's la wa hello to you as well

Beatriz is agreeing with Luis Mendez Oh apparently Pedro Belmont is saying

something about the Chinese oh I see I didn't see that I didn't notice that so

that is a very strange situation where my own moderator is saying things that I

don't want you to actually say so that's a bit unfair I'm not going to criticize

anyone because many years ago there were there were many many diseases viruses

that came from other countries so not only China so it is unfair to single out

one country because over the years there have been diseases and illnesses and

viruses that have come from all sorts of places hello - Elif very nice to see you

here Elif nice to see you here today

thank you how did the lack of toilet paper can be

crisis yes I think so the crisis there are many different types of crisis so

maybe there are two countries who are at war or maybe they are about to go to war

with each other you might say that that is a crisis so

when we talk about crisis we are talking about something that is a serious

situation or a serious event something that you have to sort out very quickly

so we talk about a crisis and at the moment there is a world crisis so at the

moment around the world there are many crises so the plural of crisis is crises

crises many many situations that are serious and bad hello axe to fall

hello axe to fall nice to see you hear as well Helena Thank You Helena

for joining us as well what a wonderful day I see there the only problem with

today is the animals you see the animals are making a lot of noise because it's

very warm here today so all of the animals have got very excited because

they are looking for their mates even the pheasant behind me keeps calling

because he's looking for her girlfriend he's trying to find a lovely girlfriend

in fact pheasants are very greedy because they tend to have more than one

girlfriend it is nice to hear the birds making the noise well I think so yes it

is quite nice listening to the sounds of nature

can you hear all the sounds here in my country what is going on here well most

people have been told now to stay at home they have to lock themselves away

in their houses if they live in towns or cities however I must be honest I'm

quite lucky because I live in the countryside so because I live far away

from other people I don't have to worry we don't live in a big town or a big

city so if I go for a war there is virtually no chance of meeting someone

so it's quite good actually I can walk around without meeting any other people

and today I've decided to come out into my back garden once again because it's a

beautiful day it is a very nice day today I must be honest with you

hello Elif hi Elif nice to see you here as well it's great to see you here on

the livestream

what are the yellow flowers behind you ah the yellow flowers behind me do you

mean these there is one now on your screen daffodil we call this flower

daffodil and that is a happy a very happy daffodil so there we go there it

is there it is a daffodil to brighten up your day an English daffodil isn't that

nice Azzam hello Assam watching in Pakistan

hello to you as well nice to see you here do you have any children no I don't

I don't have any children definitely not

well as far as I know who knows in these strange times so there is my little

daffodil your garden is very nice all you can hear are the sounds of nature

rather nice really I'm rather enjoying this no I don't have any children

I don't yes sir asks wTF is the point of this the point of this yeah sir is let

me just explain I will explain to you now that's the point there we go I've

just made a very good point there so now you know now you know what this is all

about it's people being friendly and nice to each other I can hear the birds

they are so noisy I know I think so

I'm not giving many chances today you see you get one more chance daffodils

are very common in my area says Palmyra Thank You pal Mira for that also we have

Anna Coby Oh Anna Coby welcome as well nice to see you here shall we have a

little look around the garden I'm going to move somewhere else but I'm taking a

risk here because I don't know if I will be able to broadcast if I move around so

please bear with me I am going to move my camera I am going to walk to a

different location however please bear with me don't go away

because you might lose me can you hear that pheasant I think he's getting very

excited I think so so we will move I didn't further round oh very nice I

think I just bumped I bumped so I'm going to change the view

now let's have a slightly different view shall we okay no problem I think I can

do that I will try to give you a different view here we go so there is an

another view slightly different something different to show you now a

different view on a rather nice day here in the UK so now you can see a little

bit more of the surroundings of where I live so there we can see oh there it is

is that okay I hope you can see that clearly he's another one what is the

point of this the point of this is to be friendly and nice to people

and unfortunately you are not being friendly or nice so there you go it's

very simple be nice or else mr. Duncan will use his magic finger mr. Duncan I

think your back garden is quite big well I wouldn't say it's really big I don't

think my get-back garden is really big however I suppose it is large but not

big one of the good things about having this garden is that mr. Steve enjoys

doing the gardening so I feel very pleased about that

to be honest I do like the fact that Steve likes doing the gardening if you

look into the distance you will see yes you can see in the distance you can see

in the distance there is a hill a very famous hill very well-known here in the

UK and if we go higher up you can see the beautiful clouds yes and also blue

sky look we have blue sky today and it's so warm as well I don't know why it's so

warm today however it is and I will also show you

the daffodils so there are some more daffodils in the garden they are waving

they're waving to you I think nature is excellent I love it so much yes I feel

the same way about nature I love nature I love nature very much except for when

the pheasant keeps making a noise hello to everyone on the live chat hello Alan

Gere there are no illnesses in my garden no nothing is happening here at the

moment so I am pleased to say that there is nothing bad happening here in the

garden and that is the reason why I'm coming out

and coming outside to show you the view

so what you are seeing now is basically springtime in England so this is what

springtime looks like in the United Kingdom and it's rather nice isn't it we

will move a little bit further so I will now move my camera I hope you can still

hear me if not that I'm in trouble so yes this garden has many trees and

now there we go is that better you can see a little bit

clearer now some of the trees and some of the wildlife that exists mm-hmm

and now you are you are back on me oh there I am

so I hope you are enjoying this very strange live stream today something very

unusual something strange some might say a little odd but there's nothing I can

do about that unfortunately I can't do anything about that I will be going soon

because I think we don't seem to have many people watching today so it would

appear that there are many people now doing other things maybe they have found

other things to do with your with their time I think so why don't you eat

outside well sometimes we do sometimes we do eat outside so yes we do from time

to time we will sit outside we will eat sandwiches we will have a cup of tea or

maybe a cup of coffee and we will sit outside and enjoy the view so yes we do

definitely we do go outside sometimes

you can see the daffodils behind me and I think you can also hear the birds as

well

very noisy would you like another view okay then I will go further I will go

nearer to the house so you can have another view there we go how's that

is that okay I might be a little bit dark because I'm in the shade how many

cups of tea do you have every day normally two I have two cups of tea and

normally one cup of coffee as well so now I am right next to the house and you

can see behind me you can see there is a lot of scenery a lot of things to look

at hi Anna hello Anna yes I will be here everyday I will try to keep you company

as often as possible as long as I stay well and as long as I stay fit I think

everything will be alright I hope so Anna says I love to eat outside yes if

you love to eat outside we call it alfresco so if you eat outside we always

say alfresco alfresco you eat out doors yes I think when the weather is nice

there is nothing better than standing outside or sitting outside eating food I

think so I agree with you it's a great idea I might seem a little bit dark at

the moment because I am in the shade so I hope you can see me alright

so I suppose tomorrow tomorrow is Wednesday by the way I don't know what

you are doing tomorrow but I will be with you tomorrow from 2 p.m. UK time so

tomorrow I will be here 2 p.m. UK time so don't forget that I

will be with you tomorrow as well I will try to be with you as often as possible

sometimes it isn't possible to be with you every day would you like to see

something very unusual I'm going to show you something very strange and unusual

now prepare to see something very strange can you see the snake and the

sheep and they are keeping guard of my house they are making sure everything

stays yeah they're trying to keep guard my house so I have a sheep and also a

snake the snake is called Sydney Sydney the snake and also the

sheep is called lady Woolington so we have lady Woolington and also Sydney the

snake I hope you enjoyed that something unusual I wasn't expecting to see that

apparently the snake and the Sheep cannot be friends well guess what these

two animals are very friendly they are very friendly to each other

mog mog says your sheep and your snake they are both adorable thank you very

much that's very kind of you I will move a little bit further I feel

as if I need some sunlight on my face so I'm going to move the camera into the

light did you ever have statues in your garden well I have some statues just

behind me here can you see them I will try to move the camera so you can

see them there are some statues just behind me there they are

can you see them so those particular statues are Easter Island statues I will

show one to you so you can see it so the statues in my garden are actually based

on the Easter Island statues they are very famous statues large heads have you

seen them here is one of them here is one of my Easter Island heads

very large and very heavy hello my name Oh it's Easter soon isn't it is well so

my name is Eggbert Eggbert because I come from Easter

Island and I'm very pleased to hear you and see you okay you have to go back now

I'm sorry I'm sorry but you have to go back because you are very heavy I think

I'm going to drop you on my foot

actually that was quite heavy very heavy where did you buy them from there is a

garden center not very far away from where I live and I bought them from

there I've actually got three of them the small one is very heavy and then

there is a medium-sized head and that's very very heavy and then there is a

large one which I can't even pick up because it's so heavy it takes two

people to carry it I will go back into the sunlight now because I'm feeling a

little chilly in the shade dudu

it's interesting what a strange day what a strange thing to do on a sunny day to

be outside in the wild the wild of England that's quite nice oh I must

admit I like that view that looks a bit better because the Sun is now next to me

so I think that is much better I am so happy to meet you says hack la or hello

to you as well where are you watching I have a feeling

you might you might be watching in Vietnam am i right

Easter Island is off Chile in this in the Pacific Ocean a very famous place

I've always wanted to go to Easter Island because apparently there are many

legends and many myths about the people who created the big heads those large

statues on Easter Island there are many legends and many stories about how they

got there even now we don't quite understand how they did it how they

moved all those giant pieces of stone around people still don't know how they

did it it's amazing mr. Duncan your pronunciation is perfect thank you very

much I always try my best and a pika you are welcome and Mavi says I have to go

now I hope I will see you tomorrow take care of yourself and also all the other

friends as well thank you very much it's very kind of you to do that well as I

said before I'm on my own I'm isolated I have locked mr. Steve in one of the

rooms in the house so he is in there working away one Trin is here as well

Victoria is going now maybe it is late where you

are I hope you have a good day enjoyed the rest of the day wherever you

are good bye guys good night - I am so sleepy I have to sleep I am happy to see

all of you guys and of course I'm happy to see you Duncan see you again

hopefully I will be with you tomorrow in my studio I will be back with you

tomorrow Belarusian hello Belarusian I haven't

seen you very much this week I hope you've been alright I am missing all

your live streams mr. Duncan because there is no good internet here at my

father's house oh I see you are staying with your father at the moment because I

know that he's had some problems with his health so you are keeping him

company which i think is very nice it's very kind of you

Irene a big bonjour to you hello Irene nice to see you here as well nice to see

you here on the live chat this live stream is not a place for dating no it

isn't however who knows who knows in this strange world of ours who knows you

might you might suddenly meet the love of your life

who knows maybe maybe not hello Guadalupe as well hello also to the

Czech Republic can I say hello to the Czech Republic

Eleanor hello Eleanor Alina nice to see you here as well

Noemi says the Easter Island is an example of mankind destroying the

environment this is true because originally the island itself was covered

with trees so what they did is they destroyed the island they cut everything

down and then suddenly they realized that they had no trees and all of the

grass and all of the land it all perished it

came it became infertile they couldn't grow things on it so yes yes they they

literally wipe themselves out because of their greed because they didn't take

care of the environment I think so I think we have to learn about their

mistakes yes this is something that human beings are not very good at one of

the things I've noticed about people is they are not very good at learning

lessons so when you make a mistake in your life sometimes you might find that

you make the same mistake again and again and again sometimes it happens

hello Latif from Sultanate in oh man hello to you as well nice to see you

here on the livestream we are doing something very strange at the moment

because we are living through very strange times as you may have heard have

you heard we are currently living through very strange times and one of

the things we are living through is

isolation people are being forced to isolate themselves you have to stay at

home and that's what I'm doing as well so I'm doing the same thing as you

however I have come outside to take some fresh air and also some exercise as well

hi - hello - man Ikki or yes man Ikki hello to you your English is perfect

thank you very much I have been practicing my English for many years I

will be going in a moment we are coming up to 90 minutes and I will be going

very soon I hope you've enjoyed this live chat so what have you been doing

today what have you been doing - past the time away one of things I've

been doing is I've been learning some new computer skills so one of the things

I'm doing is learning some new computer skills to keep me busy during this

strange period of time Connell says my niece and nephew are watching you now

hello to par vana and Kotani I hope I pronounced your names right I'm sorry if

I didn't so hello Connell hello also pivara and

also Kashani as well I hope I pronounced it right if I didn't I'm sorry I'm very

sorry don't shout at me hello blue thunder hi blue thunder

welcome welcome to my sunny gardens it's nice and warm here today it really does

feel as if spring is in the air C&L is also here a lot of people are suddenly

joining me today hello to you thank you for joining me this is my Tuesday

livestream that I'm doing during this very strange period of time I am Lynn

watching in Vietnam nice to see you here as well a lot of people here on the live

chat it's thanks to your teaching that I have come to understand English

gradually thank you Carver this is true learning like anything takes time

learning can take a long time it can take a lot of patience you have to take

your time you can't rush so don't rush your learning don't try to do too much

at the same time we had a question earlier about learning two languages

at the same time but sometimes learning too much can be just as bad as learning

nothing at all I think so so you have to take your time learning takes time and

one of the reasons why I do these live streams is to give you a chance to

listen to English being spoken so you can create your own English environment

in your house so that is the reason why I do this I do this so you can

experience English being spoken hello rose-red when you are bored being

quarantined just learn English with mr. Duncan I think that is a great idea I

like that idea very much in fact as an international teacher what's your plan

for more improvements in your career do you mean from my point of view well most

of my work now is done through the internet I do most of my work online I

use YouTube all the time because it is a great way of getting many many people

together in one place and we can all share our enjoyment of the English

language so I think it's a good thing I I love I love doing this very much I

wish I could do it all the time I really do

Blue Thunder says I am learning the guitar good one

yes you can learn a new skill so during this strange time of isolation you could

learn a new skill something you haven't tried before

maybe something you've never done before

we have a lot of people watching in Vietnam I'm going to walk around the

corner excuse me I'm going to walk somewhere else now so please bear with

me

oh there are some people behind me hello

you do I'm trying to find a comfortable place to put my camera unfortunately I'm

not doing very well so here is another view in my garden another angle I will

try to put my camera straight that's better so I'm now in my damson tree so

this is the damson tree that i mentioned earlier and can you see there are some

little birds can you see the birds coming out so that is what springtime

looks like in England you can see there are some lovely little birds coming out

on the dams and tree so there are many there's another one can you see them

there's little green buds are they lovely

so there is what springtime looks like there are some people walking behind me

you see so the noise you can hear is actually people walking behind me

walking behind me

in this area we do get a lot of people walking because this is a great place to

walk it's a great place to take exercise and I suppose there are some people who

want to go for a walk by themselves for example mr. Steve and myself so later on

we will go for a walk as well hello to Florence hello Florence please be

careful mr. Duncan I am careful I am still in my garden I'm not wandering

around amongst lots of people so don't worry I am okay

I'm completely healthy I am fine I am taking some exercise I'm eating food the

only thing I'm short of the only thing I'm running out of is toilet paper

unfortunately I don't have much toilet paper left this is the only toilet paper

I'll have left unfortunately things are getting serious they really are my dams

and tree is attacking me

where are we going now mr. Duncan oh

just above my head we have a lovely blossom tree so there is the cherry

blossom coming out as well can you hear the bird there is a bird right above my

head singing brilliant oh I love nature so

much many of the birds at the moment are looking for mates you see they are

trying to find a mate because this is the mating season for many birds so that

is the reason why they are singing because they are trying to get a mate

they are trying to find someone to pair with very nice it's very nice if you can

get it if you can get it it's very nice why don't you have any pets mr. Duncan

well I have enough animals around me all the time so I don't really need to have

a pet to be honest because I have this I have this all around me it's strange

that the bird is so comfortable the bird feels so comfortable with be nearby

and it's not even worried it's not even worried about me being here because I'm

always in my garden so the birds are very confident and comfortable when I am

outside

brilliant absolutely brilliant I love this well I will be going soon

unfortunately I will have to disappear soon I hope you've enjoyed this

livestream it has been a very interesting day I hope you've enjoyed it

I always worry that you will feel bored I know sometimes people find my live

streams and then they don't know what's happening and they will say things like

what's going on what is this

hamid reza as you deserve millions of followers and that comes from my heart

thank you very much that's very kind of you to say you are very kind to say that

well YouTube is an interesting place there are some people who become very

popular normally they are very young people who become popular and then there

are people like me who carry on we try our best to keep doing things but that's

just the way it goes that is the nature of the game unfortunately I am sorry to

say Cowen thanks for your kind teaching you are welcome I'm very happy that you

are happy I can't see very well because the Sun is now in my eyes

we are only bored because of the isolation not because of your livestream

fence Oh which one so there there is a fence there can you see my fence and

there is another fence here so this particular fence that you can see here

can you see it it is designed to keep the animals out because quite often in

the field behind me quite often there are lots of animals like sheep and

sometimes there are cattle out there as well so quite often out there in that

field there will be lots of animals normally sheep and sometimes cattle no I

will not be making pancakes I don't think I will be making pancakes ever
