I've just popped in to thank you very much for organizing last weekend's trip to the seaside for the old folk. |
| Julia |
That's very kind of you. They all seemed to enjoy it. |
| Mary |
They certainly did. Everything went like
clockwork, in fact I don't think you could have done it better. |
| Julia |
I'm not sure about that, there were one or two things that could have been improved. |
| Mary |
In a perfect world perhaps, but as far as I'm concerned it was a great success. So thank you again. |

| Explanation : |
| |
| If you say that something happens
like clockwork you mean that it
happens without any problems or delays, or happens regularly. |
| |
| Example :
He reorganized Standard Brands twice a year,
like clockwork. |
