JOKE

How To Bathe The Cat
1. Thoroughly clean toilet.
2. Lift both lids and add shampoo.
3. Find and soothe cat as you carry him to bathroom.
4. In one swift move, place cat in toilet, close both lids and stand on top, so cat cannot escape.
5. The cat will self-agitate and produce ample suds. (Ignore ruckus from inside toilet; cat is enjoying this.)
6. Flush toilet three or four times. This provides power rinse, which is quite effective.
7. Have someone open outside door, get on top of the tank and quickly lift both lids.
8. Clean cat will rocket out of the toilet and outdoors, where he will air dry.

GRAMMAR REVISION
Dear All,
This link might be useful in order to revise some of the grammatical contents studied last year, and of course, you can go ahead with the pre-intermediate ones too! Click on the elementary level (the red book) to brush up on your grammar. You can then move on to the pre-intermediate level, (the blue book). But don't be too ambitious, you shouldn't bite off more than you can chew!
