  • Hello.

  • And this is the English we speak.

  • With me, Fay Fei and me, Neil.

  • Have you seen how angry Rob is today?

  • Do you know what happened?

  • Ah, yes, you remember.

  • It was his birthday yesterday.

  • I decided to throw him a surprise birthday party.

  • Ah, that's a really nice thing to do.

  • Does he hate surprises now?

  • He does.

  • You see, I made it such a surprise that I forgot to tell anybody that it was happening.

  • So?

  • So when he got to the party venue, no one was there.

  • Oh, that sounds awful.

  • Well, at least I know why I didn't get invited.

  • I was quite annoyed you'd forgotten me.

  • Well, I'm glad you didn't go off on one as well.

  • Go off on one?

  • Is that our expression?
