The teacher was shouting at us when the firebell rang.
I was eating my dinner when I dropped my fork.
I was on the train when my dad phoned.
I was sleeping when my alarm went off.

I was cleaning the fish tank when the verb pouvoir in the present tense interupted my thoughts.

They were eating lunch when I arrived.

While he was doing his exam, the girl laughed loudly.

You were working hard when they called for you.

Anna

Oh and I forgot to mention that I was in my room, drying my hair when I got the verbcast message this morning!(not random, we were asked in the message this morning!)

Mark

Lol - liked your first example, Anna! Is it true? From your post on "Verbs everywhere" I think it may well be true! Hope your fish enjoyed the performance of pouvoir! Which tense did you perform it in? ;)

Anna

The present although they got very enthusiastic and asked me to do it in the perfect tense. Luckily, thanks to the verbcast I could, phew!Lol

Vivien

I like it Anna!

Alison

I was out riding when it started to rain.

The sun was shining when he went out for a walk.

They were watching tv when their mum called them for dinner.

We were eating popcorn when the film started.

I was studying when the phone rang.

She was singing when her friend came.

We were laughing when the bell rang.

He was playing video games when the electricity went out.
