A very vividly told story from real life that we all experience at one time or another. Two weeks ago, I went to my parents for a weekend to rest. When I arrived, my dad told me that 7 tons of coal had arrived and I should put it in the shed. I had the help of my two brothers, but even though we worked hard, my arm and back muscles hurt for two days after that.

Seven tons of coal? That must have been so exhausting. I’m glad you had your brother’s to help but I totally understand why your muscles ached afterwards. Hope you’ve recovered now?
I recovered after two days.
