hey, here is what I thought of it
3. Finding informations on Australia is easy. -> about hmmm isn't information always singular? no "s" I think ![]() 4. Bill is on holiday but he'll be back [u]until[/[u] next week. -> by I would just have dropped the "until" no need to add the "by" to me everything else looks just fine to me ![]() |
