Today, I started a new method, a further method, so to say, to get better in English pronunciation, especially to improve language understanding, particularly in understanding films. The film I took for this experiment was the old series Downtown Abbey. I took the first episode and had the intention to write down all the subtitles and then listen to the film again and again until I was able to understand everything without hesitation, without getting over-concentrating for understanding.
Coming shortly to my physical state, I am not satisfied. So, I made rather long strolls, the last two together with my wife. That has the advantage not being alone, but the disadvantage of not having the opportunity to improve my English understanding or speaking, what I like to do during walking, but I have enough time in the morning and afternoon to do it. Sometimes I have the impression that I neglect a little my physical training
