Neighbours

    The Browns are the Smiths neighbours. Mr. Brown's name is John. But when his neighbours talk about him, they call him "Mr. Going-to-do". Do you know why? Mr. Brown always says he is going to do something, but he never does it.

    Every Saturday Mr. Brown goes to the Smiths back door and talks to Mr. Smith. He always says he is going to do something.

    "I'm going to clean my house today," he says, or "I'm going to wash my car tomorrow morning, and tomorrow evening I am going to the cinema with my wife." or "These trees in front of my house are too big. I'm going to cut them down next week or I'm going to have a picnic with my friends next week." But Mr. Smith knows his neighbour isn't going to do those things.

    Mr. Smith often says to his only child Dick, "Are you going to do something? Then do it. Don't be another 'Mr. Going-to-do. '"

— Yes. I swim twice a week.
