1
I'll take the muñequera all the time.
2
Thank you.
3
What are you talking about then?
4
I'm just saying, aren't I, it's cheaper to fly to Spain than it is to Newcastle.
5
Who do you know in Newcastle?
6
I don't know anybody in Newcastle, bloody hell.
7
I'm only saying.
8
Why Newcastle?
9
Oh, Christ, on a bike.
10
That woman was from Newcastle, weren't she?
11
Eh? That slag.
12
What slag?
13
The one in the bar the other night.
14
The one you've not met before but mysteriously knew your name.
15
Won't you give it a rest?
16
We're supposed to be relaxing, we're on holiday.
17
Yeah, I know we are.
18
Just don't relax too much, I've got my eye on you.
19
Er, excuse me.
20
El hombre and poco breakfast, por favor.
21
Oh, Jim O.
22
It's ridiculous, most of the people here are English.
23
We'd think they'd have a go at the language.
24
But if you pay peanuts, you'd get monkeys.
25
I'm from Bacon Head, mate.
26
Plus, this is a self-service buffet.
27
So tomorrow, if you get here before half-time, when breakfast finishes, you won't have to alarm the monkeys, will you?
28
Good job at his self-service.
29
You wouldn't want him gobbling on your meat.
30
Oh, I don't know.
31
Hello, love.
32
Sorry to bother you.
33
Hello, then.
34
Well, hello.
35
How are you?
36
I've been meaning to come over and apologise at some point.
37
Apologise?
38
Yes, I do believe I spat on you at breakfast. Did you?
39
Yes, totally unintentional, you understand.
40
I was at the buffet and I turned my head slightly to spit out a tiny bit of eggshell, and, well, you were just outside my peripheral vision,
41
and I believe it landed in your hair.
42
Oh, well, we're on holiday, aren't we?
43
My philosophy, exactly.
44
I'm Donald and this is Jacqueline.
45
I'm Madge.
46
Madge, lovely name.
47
Are you enjoying your holiday, Mad?
48
Oh, yes, a lovely bit of sun.
49
You don't get this in Manchester.
50
Is that where you're from, Manchester?
51
Well, not originally, but it's where we live now.
52
We used to travel down to Manchester.
53
We had a couple of musician friends, Keith and Eunice Piggott.
54
You might have heard of them.
55
The Blue Notes.
56
No. Do you mean the ink spots?
57
No, no, the Blue Notes.
58
Very big on the Belgian jav scene.
59
They were a lovely, broad-minded couple, weren't they? weren't they?
60
Oh, yes.
61
We did a lot of very good home movies with them.
62
Yes.
63
Very versatile couple.
64
That would be when late 60s?
65
Oh, I was in me prime then.
66
The swinging 60s.
67
Oh, right.
68
Bit of a swinger, were you?
69
Oh, yes.
70
Forty years ago.
71
Mind you, I've not lost it.
72
I reckon once a swinger, always a swinger, don't you?
73
Oh, yes.
74
Absolutely.
75
Oh, aye, I could kick me legs up with the best of them.
76
Don't think because I'm I'm in a chair.
77
I'm past it.
78
I'm sure you're not.
79
We had a lovely couple from the black country staying with us before we came away.
80
She was 58, had a plastic hip, but that didn't stop her going like the clappers, did it?
81
Oh, no. Oh, well, you've got plenty to read.
82
That's good here, isn't it?
83
I bought three magazines with me, and I've gone through them like a dose of salt.
84
Oh, here, take a couple.
85
I've got a stack of them in the apartment.
86
Oh, thanks, love.
87
I don't want you to think that's all I come over for.
88
Not at all.
89
Plenty more where they came from.
90
Nancy Friday, women on top.
91
It's not one of them feminist jobs, is it?
92
I can't be done with that.
93
Load of hairy lesbians trying to do their own plumbing.
94
No, it's more, erm...
95
Well, fantasy.
96
Oh, not that load of your rings rubbish.
97
Someone in the pub gave us that on DVD.
98
All you could see were people getting up to go to the toilet.
99
What is your mother doing talking to them?
100
I think she's gone to borrow a magazine.
101
What's wrong with the magazines she's got?
102
They're in Chinese.
103
What do you think's wrong with them?
104
She's read them.
105
All right, eh, honey, asked.
106
Here we are.
107
Alan Titmatch.
108
It's a gardener, isn't it?
109
I like him.
110
I'll have a look at this one, if that's all right.
111
Yeah, go ahead.
112
Oh, he's lovely, ain't he?
113
I'd let him dig my garden any day.
114
Perhaps you'd like to come up and have a good, well, rummage through Jacqueline's jelly coopers.
115
Oh, aye.
116
I might take you upon that.
117
It'd be nice to have a civilised conversation for a change.
118
I'm a widower, so I don't get much these days.
119
Oh, we can soon put that right, can't we?
120
Oh, yes.
121
Howdy.
122
What you playing?
123
Scrabble.
124
Nice one.
125
Like your style.
126
No, I mean, what, you playing American rules, English?
127
Spanish.
128
Cool, cool.
129
Yeah?
130
There is a role to it, but it's play-over.
131
Do you fancy a game?
132
I like. So, er...
133
You here with your family?
134
Yeah.
135
I was gonna come on holiday by myself.
136
Then I remembered I'm 16 and have no money.
137
Do you want me a break?
138
Yeah.
139
I remember when I got going all day with my parents when I was 16.
140
It's a bitch, innit?
141
Stripes.
142
Who's that woman you've been sat with the past three days?
143
Oh, that woman?
144
She's me PA.
145
Your PA?
146
No, personal assistant.
147
She deals with all me day-to-day shit.
148
What?
149
She wipes your arse?
150
No. You know, she takes care of all my day-to-day admin shit.
151
Phone calls and.. whatever.
152
I'm a professional pub quiz champion.
153
Just breaking into television.
154
You know what I mean?
155
No. I'm avoiding William G.
156
Stewart at the moment.
157
Yeah.
158
He's trying to get 15 to 1 back off the ground.
159
Wants me to set the questions.
160
I thought that woman was your mum.
161
My mum?
162
That's funny.
163
I'll tell her, though.
164
Make her laugh.
165
Jeff, I found some of those batteries you were after for your headset.
166
I left them with your mum.
167
The wonderery turns.
168
Well, that's something I didn't expect.
169
A civilised conversation in this place.
170
Very nice couple.
171
What did you get, ma'am?
172
It's that Titmarch fella.
173
The one who does the gardening.
174
It's Titchmarch.
175
Yeah.
176
How lovely.
177
I'll have to get you strapped into your chair to read that one, Madge.
178
Apparently, Alan likes to give his money's worth in the old 6-6 season.
179
Oh, don't be disgusting!
180
It's Alan Titmarch off the telly.
181
Not everybody's like you, you know.
182
Mind like a sewer.
183
I'll have to look at that after you, Mum.
184
They've got some Jilly Coopers in their apartment.
185
I'm off up there later.
186
Go have a drink with them.
187
With a bit of luck, they'll give me one.
188
There's no answer to that.
189
There you go.
190
Martin, I can't drink a cocktail.
191
It's okay, it's non-alcoholic.
192
I really enjoyed last night.
193
I have a little too much to drink.
194
You were fine.
195
Well, when I say you were fine, you were pretty insatiable when we got back to the apartment.
196
Yes, I know, you said, this morning.
197
You really can't remember?
198
No, I'm sorry, I can't.
199
I'm not used to drinking that amount.
200
And I'm not used to you making that kind of noise in the bedroom either.
201
God.
202
Must admit, the old soldier had nearly forgotten how to stand to attention.
203
Martin, please.
204
Hey, relax.
205
We're on holiday.
206
We're allowed to do things that are a little bit crazy.
207
Here I come!
208
You're not having a burger, ma'am?
209
I've got one in my bag from yesterday.
210
Waste not want not.
211
Oh, mother.
212
Just stir past me T-shirt, will you, Michael?
213
What do you want your T-shirt for?
214
It's bloody boiling.
215
Sweat keeps running down the crack of me arse.
216
Do you know, it's like being on a dream holiday with Hugh Grant.
217
We all know what he got up to.
218
Got caught in his car with his trousers down, dirty bastards.
219
My dad looks not like Hugh Grant.
220
Thank you, my darling.
221
I'm more like Russell Grant.
222
Oh she's so grand.
223
It's that guy off Celebrity Fit Club that looks like a gay toad.
224
Oh yeah, you're going in.
225
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
226
Oh, no, no, no!
227
Okay, a beautiful wine for so beautiful girls.
228
Hi there.
229
Yeah, you're hot.
230
I'd be like my mouth.
231
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
232
Hello.
233
Hi, sorry to bother you.
234
I was just wondering if I could get another cocktail.
235
Now, what do you recommend?
236
Hiya.
237
Two tequila sunrises, please.
238
Oh, right.
239
Sorry, were you next?
240
Moving sir.
241
No problem.
242
How are you enjoying your holiday?
243
Yeah, it's OK.
244
Sun's nice.
245
Absolutely.
246
It's all exactly the Ritz, but as you say, you can't fault the weather.
247
Oh, yeah.
248
Martin Whedon.
249
Sorry?
250
I'm Martin.
251
Oh, hi, I'm Troy.
252
Nice to meet you.
253
I think I saw you the other day with your, um, friend.
254
Yeah, I'm here with my friend.
255
Sorry, that sounded slightly patronising.
256
No, not really.
257
I think it's important that someone's lover should be their friend.
258
Best friend, preferably.
259
Yes.
260
Yes, you're right.
261
Anything to eat?
262
Hang on, I'll check.
263
Gavin!
264
The barman says, has he got anything you'd like to eat?
265
Stop being vile and bring me my drink.
266
Guess he's not hungry.
267
See you later.
268
Yep, have a good one.
269
Right, can I have a virgin...
270
MUSIC Your friends are going.
271
I'll be up a bit later.
272
You have your feet right under the table with them, haven't you?
273
Very nice couple.
274
Mind you, you were right about this book.
275
It's absolutely filthy.
276
Oh!
277
Stop it!
278
Why didn't you tell us you were gonna have a baby?
279
This is none of your business.
280
Nanny said you're too fat to have a baby.
281
You know there's a monster in that pool, don't you?
282
Don't be a twat.
283
Well, it's not a monster.
284
They call it the fish baby and it lives in the bottom of the pool.
285
It's got scales and big teeth.
286
See, they tried to drown him in the pool when he was born cos they didn't want him, but he learnt to live under the water.
287
Shut up!
288
Did you not feel him trying to pull you under when you were drowning in the pool?
289
Shut up!
290
Mam, tell her to shut up, mam!
291
What?
292
What's she doing?
293
Tell her to shut up!
294
Can I have the key, Emma?
295
Back upstairs.
296
Back upstairs.
297
Well, we're all going in now.
298
Come on, ma'am.
299
All right, I'm coming.
300
Oi, hold your horses, lady.
301
Wait for us.
302
Dad, are you gay?
303
No, son.
304
I just help them out on weekends when they're busy.
305
I need you to send the fax to John and Phil.
306
What?
307
Cancel that conference call with the Television Centre.
308
I haven't got a phone.
309
Sex bomb, sex bomb, you're my sex bomb.
310
I thought we were having food in our room.
311
You've got a hypnotist on tonight.
312
Martin, no. It's OK.
313
I won't let them get you up on stage.
314
I'm not just your partner, you know, I'm your best friend as well.
315
Sex bomb, sex bomb, you're my sex bomb.
316
You can give it to me when I need to come along.
317
Sex bomb, sex bomb.
318
I love that dress on you, Jan.
319
Talk about sex bomb.
320
Why's me not on the gun?
321
She's gone to borrow a book.
322
So that's what the young kids are calling it these days.
323
Will you, papity?
324
You know they're into all that, don't you?
325
Who's into what?
326
That Scotch bloke and his wife, they're a pair of swingers.
327
They think your mother's gone up for a bit of a fumble with the curtains shut.
328
What part of your sick brain does all this rubbish come out of?
329
I feel really ill.
330
Are you OK?
331
Yeah.
332
I've got a sneaking suspicion drinking non-stop for seven hours might have something to do with it.
333
I'm just going to go up to the room for a minute.
334
Do you want me to pan with you?
335
No, you stay here.
336
I won't be long.
337
I'm gonna get something appropriate from the medicine bag.
338
I didn't know we brought a stomach pump.
339
Hm.
340
Now, so glad you made it.
341
Thought for a minute you'd have cold feet.
342
Cold feet?
343
No!
344
One of me daughters has got flat feet.
345
She's been off work a year with him.
346
Now, what would you like to drink?
347
Oh, whatever's going.
348
Go through, go through.
349
I think Jack and he'd started without us.
350
Well, where do you want me to put this book?
351
Go through.
352
Go through?
353
Oh, right.
354
Mmm.
355
Oh.
356
Oh!
357
Oh, Jesus Christ.
358
Everything okay?
359
How are we out?
360
Let me out of here.
361
Oh, dear, I think there's been a slight misunderstanding.
362
Slight misunderstanding?
363
I should have known when I read that mucky garden book.
364
Bloody perverts!
365
Oh, I'm so sorry, lad.
366
Let me out!
367
I think we've been talking at cross purposes.
368
Oh, dear.
369
So sorry, lad.
370
It's been locked up the pair of you.
371
I've never, never seen anything.
372
You can't knock a coconut down every time.
373
Tea?
374
Oh, yes.
375
All the way from Newcastle, an old friend of Neptune's, Susie!
376
I believe in miracles Where you're from You sexy lady It's that woman What woman?
377
The one from Newcastle Oh yeah?
378
You sexy thing Is she taking the piss?
379
What?
380
No!
381
She's singing at you.
382
She isn't.
383
She is!
384
Where's the girl from?
385
Angel!
386
She isn't!
387
Boy, you, do something useful for once and get me a drink.
388
Large vodka and orange.
389
What's the matter, ma'am?
390
Did they give you another book?
391
I've never been so disengusted.
392
What's wrong?
393
Perverts!
394
Bloody perverts, both of them.
395
Sorry, we haven't even ordered yet. But can we...
396
I'm going out to get some aspirin.
397
I'll come with you.
398
No, you stay here.
399
I'll be fine.
400
Order me a baked potato.
401
Okay, baked potato.
402
What filling?
403
Anything.
404
Right.
405
Anything.
406
Is it the same woman?
407
Yes, it friggin' well is.
408
And she's singing that song to Mick.
409
Well, I'd kick her ass into the middle of next week if it were me.
410
Don't worry.
411
I intend to.
412
Madge, I just wanted to say I'm really terribly sorry about what happened.
413
We must have got our wires crossed at some point.
414
Wires crossed?
415
I should sue.
416
I'm scarred for life after what I've seen.
417
Oh, we're terribly sorry.
418
We misjudged the situation.
419
Disgusting perverts, the pair of you.
420
You should be locked up.
421
We hope you won't be offended, but we've bought you these cigarettes by way of an apology.
422
Would you accept them?
423
Oh, well.
424
Well, I suppose it's a mistake anybody could make.
425
Absolutely.
426
No hard feelings?
427
No, no hard feelings.
428
Have a lovely evening.
429
What's going on?
430
Well, you weren't disgusted for very long, were you?
431
Very genuine people.
432
Oh, aye.
433
Nothing to do with the 200 Sigs, obviously.
434
Thank you!
435
There we go!
436
Where's my dad gone?
437
I thought he'd be getting some drinks.
438
I knew where he's bloody well gone.
439
I can talk about really love Who can say how it really feels?
440

441

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
