Vocabulary 181 - C1

Margot found Herbert in the garden, attempting to soak his feet in a bucket.

"What are you doing, Herbert?" she asked, mildly curious.

"Allegedly," Herbert replied, not looking up, "it's good for my gout. Agnes from the Corner Shop told me. She said it draws out the toxins."

Margot sighed. "Agnes also told you that wearing socks with sandals is fashionable. I see a contradiction, Herbert, between listening to medical advice from the Corner Shop and complaining about your 'problematic' socks-and-sandals look."

Herbert shifted his feet in the water. "Well, Agnes has seen things, Margot. Bizarre things. She says soaking my feet in vinegar and Epsom salts is an ancient remedy."

"I still think seeing a doctor would be more sensible," Margot stated, heading towards the house. "And perhaps throwing out those sandals."

Later, Brian walked into the kitchen. "Mom, Dad's trying to catch rainwater in the garden with a giant inflatable flamingo."

Margot pinched the bridge of her nose. "That's it. I'm hiding the remote."
