My school is in a 7 storey building. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors are for businesses, the remaining floors are for residents. I’m situated on the 4th floor. Most of the residents on the upper floors are salaried workers and a few students. A few weeks ago, it was a rather blustery day and I came into my office the next day to find a very nice Burberry dress shirt with the hanger inside on my small balconey. My assumption was that it must have blown from one of the upper floors. I contacted my landlady and informed her of the mystery shirt I found and told her it may have come from one her tenants. She then went ahead and took a photo of the shirt and made a poster of the lost shirt and hung it up at the entrance of the elevator. Within a week the owner retrieved his shirt and asked the landlady who found it. She answered the Smith’s English teacher on the fourth floor. Upon the news he phoned head office and made a reservation for a trial lesson.
He is now a man to man student, all because of a windy day.
Bring on more of those breezy days!
