OK, let's start the conversation.

1:18

So, Neil, how big is your family?

1:23

It’s probably average, really.

1:26

I have one sister, but she has three kids and I have two kids.

1:33

So, when we get together with my parents, there, there are a few of us.

1:38

It's not... It's not tiny. It's not huge.

1:41

OK, yeah.

1:43

I think my family is definitely smaller than yours,

1:47

because I don't have any brothers or sisters.

1:51

I am an only child.

1:53

So, when I get together with my family, it's very small,

1:57

because I also only have one cousin and she's an only child as well.

2:04

So my family's tiny!

2:06

OK. And what is your family like?

2:08

It's small, but what's it like?

2:11

Erm, it is small, but we're very close.

2:15

So, we see each other quite often.

2:17

We are a bit silly.

2:19

We like to go out and have food and play games and we can be quite loud,

2:25

even though there aren't many of us.
