Description

I am going to tell you all about the English expression "more than you bargained for"!

Hmm, I wonder if you've heard someone use this before?

Oh, and caution. This is wrong: "more than WHAT you bargained for" -- remove the 'what'.

We are going to break the expression down on its literal meaning, tell you the real meaning, and how you can use it in your daily conversations.

I am also going to tell you about sea snakes!

Yes, the charming but venomous slithering snakes living in the ocean.

And find out what happened to some guy who just went to the loo but ended up in the hospital.
