Dear Luke

I am writing to tell you that the coffee maker you have ordered is unavailable at this time. Unfortunately we have run out of stock which means the next shipment won’t be here till next week so in this case you will not be able to get your coffee maker on time. We are very sorry about the inconvenience and will ship your order to you as soon as possible.

Kind regards CoffeeCo.

Hey Luke

Sorry man I can’t get that coffee maker to you today had to be at work all day and couldn’t get the time to drop it off. I’ll come round tomorrow and drop it off and get the money off you.

Cheers breather.

My cell phone

My cell phone is a iPhone 6 and i have been using it for about a year now. I use it mainly for texting, calling, surfing the web and taking photos but don't really care so much about what features there are on a phone just needed something to do those four things. I don't really know any tips or tricks on the phone as there are not many things you can do on a iPhone apart from edit photos. If i was to choose any other phone it would probably have to be a Samsung S7 but don't think I should or would have it because i would break it and it would be a waste of money.

There’s an MnM in mnemonic!

Mnemonics is a memory trick in which makes you learn how to spell words in an easier way than just jumping in the deep end and trying to memorize the word off by heart. Mnemonics teaches you how to spell with rhyming, presenting an image, or forming a pattern that makes better sense. I find the pattern idea of Mnemonics is a great way of remembering how to spell words for example ''A piece of pie'', showing that the letter i comes before the letter e except after c.

Class protocols

• Lateness. Try to be on time but if late come in quietly, quick apology for lateness then sit down and get ready without disturbing others.

•   Cell phones. Okay to have phones on silent. No use during lecture or student talk times. Just leave quietly if important call comes through.

• Typing during listening. Engage in active listening when someones talking. No typing, textnig or talking.
