Okay.
So in the middle of a word, but at the beginning, so this is high.
And at the end of a word.

So this legend of Brazilian football, who was in the World Cup winning squad of 94, was learning English at our school.
And one Wednesday afternoon, we persuaded him to come down and play football with us.
And it was amazing, like...
He was a big star at the school, of course.
The day that he came, so many other people came to play football with him.
I was on the same team as him, so I played on the same team as this Brazilian World Cup winner.
Also on our team, we had a guy, and I can't for the life of me remember where he was from.
He might have been from China, but I'm not sure.
This guy, I swear, had never played football in his life.
And so on our team, we had a World Cup winning Brazilian legend and a guy who'd never played football in his life on the same team.
Yeah, it was amazing.
And then me in the middle and I sort of placed myself right in the middle of those two extremes in terms of my football playing ability, maybe closer to the guy who's never played football before.
But yeah, that was a fun experience being able to, you know, I can say that I played in the same team as the Brazilian World Cup winner.
Well, yeah, but still, I think we could have used you on our team regardless.
