Hello and welcome to the English We Speak.
I'm Helen, and joining me today is Neil.
Hello, everybody.
So, Neil, where did you go?
Last weekend I went to a car boot sale near my home.
There were lots of sellers getting rid of unwanted Christmas presents.
So did you manage to pick up any bargains?
Plenty.
I got presents for my kids to last the rest of the year.
And I picked up this little gem.
Look.
Oh, what is it?
It's an old silver English coin.
Is it real?
It looks quite new to me.
It does, doesn't it?
I had a close look and it's in good nick.
