There is something very British about a flask of tea on a walk.

Today that's all we're doing,

just a walk in late spring and a cup of tea.

Today is unscripted and I'll be talking at a normal pace.

So if you can understand everything I say today,

your English is doing really well.

Come along with me.

Good morning.

Today I'm going to take you for a walk with me in the Cotswolds in late spring.

First I'm going to make a flask of tea.

I'm going to pop the kettle on,

good phrase to have, pop the kettle on.

I am making what we call builder's tea,

which is strong tea with milk in it.

In the UK we drink lots of tea,

we are known for it most people will have several cups of tea a day.

I have always had a sweet tooth and I always have to have sugar with my tea.

I've actually managed to cut down a bit.

When I was younger, it used to be quite a lot of sugars.

Now it's just the one.

And the tea needs to stew for a nice amount of time.

When something happens in the UK,

good or bad, people tend to say,

I'll put the kettle on.

And it isn't really about the tea.

It's about taking a moment together.

That's what we're going to do today.

We're going to take a moment together.

Make a cup of tea to share with me and I'm going to get my boots on for the walk.

That is a typical view in spring of a lounge.

And this is called a kissing gate.

You get lots of these.

The aim to be to let the people through on the footpaths but to keep the sheep in.

When I was younger we used to always say

that we had to kiss over the top of it

and we would do that every time we went through a kissing gate.

And there are lots of kissing gates, so lots of kisses.

A very common feature on the paths in late spring is this white flower called cow parsley.

And you see it growing all along the hedgerows and all along the lanes.

It's like white lace.

I'm currently on what we call a footpath.

And the thing that's wonderful about the UK is that there are thousands of them all over the country.

This is what we call right of way,

or specifically a public right of way.

So in the UK they are legally protected routes across private or public land that anyone can use at any time.

And that is protected.

It's a protected right that we have.

It's something that's actually really magical and wonderful about the UK and people who don't have it comment on it a lot.

Well, let me know, is there an equivalent in your country?

Can you just walk wherever you want all over the country?

Because as I said, there are thousands of footpaths all across the United Kingdom

and they have been walked for hundreds of years.

People have been walking on these paths for hundreds of years

and if someone buys a private property and it has a footpath going through it,

there's absolutely nothing they can do.

They have to let people go through their property.

You could, in theory, walk across the whole of the country.

One of my American friends was absolutely shocked by this because obviously in the US,

trespassing is not welcomed.

It seemed like a bit of an alien concept to her that we have this right of way,

but as I said, it's one of the most wonderful things about the UK and it's why walking here is so popular.

There are so many wonderful places if you love walking and because of this right of way,

these footpaths that you have to honour,

you can walk pretty much anywhere.

Walk through the gate and just go.

It's really useful to have the OS maps

so you can get an app

that shows you all of the footpaths across the country

so I use it all the time and it has saved me from getting lost many times.

And there you can see all of the yellow arrows pointing to all the various different footpaths.

And what road shall we take?

Which path?

We're going to take this one.

A bit windy today.

a bit chilly as we would say in the UK it's

a bit chilly we moan a lot about how much it rains in the UK

but if it didn't we wouldn't have this green

and that's what I talked about what's so nice

when winter is over and all these wonderful leaves come through

and they've come through now and it's just It's just so luscious and vibrant.

As we moan about the rain,

it wouldn't be this green without it.

In fact, sometimes in August,

when it's been very dry and we have weeks of dry, it's really brown.

We lose that luscious green in the grass because it's so used to water.

It goes actually quite brown so this is the best time.

Cows in the field, that is a pretty standard sight.

I have to say I'm a big fan of walking.

Whenever everything seems too much

or the world seems a bit overwhelming just getting out for a walk always makes it feel better.

Just wait because up ahead there is something that I want to show you.

Here it is, the best bench in the world and you might ask why?

Well it's because of.. look at that view.

It doesn't get better than that.

I have to say any Lord of the Rings fans out there,

Tolkien definitely based the Shire on areas like this Gloucestershire,

Oxfordshire, these areas of the Cotswolds.

This is one of my favourite spots.

I come here, sit, look at that view and just think.

100

And now you're here sharing this beautiful view with me,

101

I think it is time for a cup of tea.

102

So I'm going to get that flask that we made together.

103

Grab a cup or have one with me and enjoy this view.

104

That just hits the spot.

105

A good cup of tea on a day like this with that view.

106

I have to say, I've said this before on the channel,

107

it's true of many British people, we love the seasons.

108

So I know that's a generalisation.

109

Personally, I could never live somewhere where the climate was the same the whole year round

110

because I just would miss the seasonal changes that you see throughout the year.

111

And part of what makes this time of year so magical is we've just come out of a long winter.

112

And while there are aspects that I love about winter,

113

you know, I love Christmas,

114

I love autumn as well,

115

spring comes just at the right time,

116

especially because of daylight saving time, which I've talked about.

117

The peak of winter, it's getting dark at about 3.30 p.m.

118

The days are so short and that is just quite grim and quite depressing.

119

So when spring comes, it just feels so good.

120

Trees, they have this ancient feel.

121

It really is magical.

122

And at this time of year,

123

it's now light until 9 p.m.

124

So it makes such a difference having those longer days,

125

knowing that summer is on its way.

126

I almost think though spring,

127

this time of year, is better than summer.

128

All the flowers are out.

129

By the time you get to late summer, things are much browner.

130

The green is not nearly as bright

131

so we're at probably the peak in terms of nature's beauty at this time of year.

132

Okay, so that's its own little ritual,

133

having a flask of tea,

134

coming out, sitting on a bench,

135

enjoying a day like that.

136

One more sip and we'll get going again again.

137

And this is another classic feature of walks in the UK.

138

This is called a stile.

139

You have to climb over them and this is a classic feature of a walk in England because

140

you hop over like that.

141

This is another common thing you see in spring in the UK.

142

It's called wild garlic Oh wow,

143

yeah, you can really smell the garlic.

144

So this is wild garlic and it's the leaves are not the flowers People come foraging.

145

That's a good word foraging in woods for wild garlic

146

and they make things like wild garlic soup there are areas where it just

147

carpets the floor of the wood and it's really magical Again,

148

you can see how different it is now all the leaves have come out

149

because this was the same view I showed you about a month ago.

150

And look how different it is.

151

And here's a good example of the different types of paths that you get because you have obviously the yellow footpath,

152

public footpath that we've talked about.

153

blue sign is the bridal way and a bridal way means that horses,

154

well you can ride along them,

155

so horses can go along them.

156

Okay let's head home.

157

Boots off, now we're home and here's our lovely water feature on the deck.

158

In fact the deck is a good way to show you how much it changes through the seasons

159

because here is the deck in late spring

160

and let me show you again

161

that footage from about a month ago where the leaves weren't out yet

162

so you can see there is quite a difference there.

163

Time for another cup of tea in a proper mug this time.

164

I told you we drank lots of tea.

165

Thank you for keeping me company on the walk today.

166

I hope you enjoyed it and that it gave you a moment of peace in your day.

167

Don't forget to check out the free pdfs I offer that are listed below.

168

Have a lovely day and I will see you in the next one.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
