Peace and quiet
I'm sick and tied of all these birds.
What do you mean? We're all birds here.
I'm talking about the starlings.
I can't get any peace and quiet.
You know the rule.
All birds are allowed to chirp as loud as they like at the crack of dawn.
I'm tweeting a complaint.
It won't do to any good.

How do you like your new house?
Good. Except house is going up next door.
That's too bad.

Safe and sound
I got to home safe and sound.

It just rained off and on. But my car broke down.
No way!
I had to have it towed.
That must have done cost an arm and leg.
Luckily, I have road side assistance insurance.
That is lucky.
