  • Hello, and welcome to the English We Speak.

  • I'm Jiayin, but there's no Neil.

  • I'm waiting for him to arrive.

  • Ah, sorry I'm late.

  • I've had a bit of a disaster.

  • Oh, no.

  • Yeah, I've been doing some diy.

  • Diy?

  • That means do it yourself.

  • You've been doing your own building and repair work?

  • That sounds dangerous.

  • Not really.

  • All I was doing was putting up some bookshelves,

  • but I put one of the nails through a water pipe and water started spraying everywhere.

  • Disaster.

  • It sounds like a botch job.

  • Oh, is that bad?

  • Very bad.
