About this episode

Pippa and Phil discuss their holiday planning habits while Georgie explains relevant grammar concepts.

Are you the kind of person who plans a trip last minute? Or do you prefer to build a spreadsheet months in advance? Pippa and Phil talk about what they tend to do when they're planning a trip, and our grammar guru Georgie explains how to use the phrase 'tend to' and modal verbs 'will' and 'might' to talk about usual behaviour.
