Mr Going-to-do
The Browns are the Smiths' neighbours. Mr Brown's first name is John. But when his neighbours talk about him, they all call him " Mr Going-to-do". Do you know why? Mr Brown always says he is going to do something, but he never does it. Every Saturday Mr Brown goes to the Smiths' back door and talks to Mr Smith. He always says he is going to do something. "I'm going to clean my house today." he says, or " I'm going to wash my car tomorrow." or "These trees in front of my house are too big. I'm going to cut them down next week." Mr Smith usually says, "Are you John?" He knows his neighbour is not going to clean his house, or wash his car, or cut down any trees. Then he says, " Well, excuse me, John, I'm going to do some work in the house. " And he does.
Mr and Mrs Smith often say to their only child Dick, "Are you going to do something? Then do it! Don't be another 'Mr Going-to-do'!"
