“I really began to miss family and friends not to mention baked beans!”
Context: I spend eight to nine months working abroad and cram in a holiday when I have the odd week off. This year, three of those months were spent in America playing gigs with my band, so we got to visit all kinds of places from Arizona to New York. After a few weeks, I really began to miss family and friends not to mention baked beans!
“I’m sorry Mr. Stanton, really I am. I didn’t mean to miss it. Things…happened.”
“Oh, well. Things happened. How nice to have that cleared up.”
