This week, we're considering some more of the miscellaneous items that don't really into any of the usual categories - the little challenges our students come up against from time to time. The Idiom of the Week is 'To throw a spanner in the works.' And you might hear in the background, our neighbour's dogs barking at his sheep. We're in the countryside, you know.
