We got tired of stressful city life. We wanted to have our own garden. In the country people are much friendlier. I’ve always wanted to open a boarding house for animals.

There were different people in the village. At first she was very lonely, but soon she made a lot of friends in the village. She knew everyone in Debton. The people were very kind to her. That day she closed the door of her cottage and went down the path to the General Store. She walked across the square to the village shop. It was the best thing about living in a village.

Winters are not so cold as they can be on the continent, but summers are not so warm as they usually are on the other side of the Channel.

The North is certainly colder than the South, but in winter the coldest districts are the eastern ones. On the whole the weather changes very often and there are few sunny days. Britain has rain in every month of the year. The rainiest months in Britain are November, January and February. Usually there is little snow in winter. A.

The Weather The weather happens because the sun heats the air. When the air is heated up, it moves around the Earth’s atmosphere. Heat and cold spread evenly around the Earth. That’s how wind is produced. The weather affects what people do and wear every day. The weather forecast is important for pilots and captains, for farmers and drivers, for many other people.

The Weather/Nature description The snow began to melt and the trees to blossom. The grass became green. It was spring, and the meadows were blue with violets. It was summer. The earth was covered with green grass, and various flowers blossomed in the forest. Under the bushes there were masses of ripe strawberries. A tree grew at a great height, and from the branches of the tree hung the bright red fruit. The sky was covered with clouds, snow fell in large flakes, an icy wind howled round the mountain. 57

Helen didn’t do anything but dressed up, did she? 4. It wasn’t spring when Helen wanted to have some wood-violets, was it? 5. The men who were sitting around the fire looked rather strange, didn’t they? 6. It was March who helped Marouckla to find wood-violets, wasn’t it? 7. Helen didn’t even thank her stepsister for the violets, did she ? 8. Helen and her mother couldn’t believe that the poor orphan found ripe strawberries in the winter forest, could they?

The Baxters are Planning Their Holiday Trio Betty:

Scotland! Dad, you know it always rains in Scotland! If it didn’t rain, Scotland would be OK. I didn’t get brown in Wales last year and I don’t think I will get brown this year in Scotland. If we went somewhere sunny, I would be happy. Mrs Baxter: Okay, it’s late. We will talk about it tomorrow.

Betty: If I can lie on the beach all day, I will get nice and brown. Mr Baxter: Where shall we stay? There are some nice hotels in these brochures. Mrs Baxter: I’m afraid if we stay at a hotel, it will be much too expensive. We could rent a caravan again. Mr Baxter: I am not spending two weeks in an uncomfortable caravan. It was horrible!

A Stroll along the Beach Colin: I say, Lynn, a relaxed stroll along the beach, the sound of waves and the seagulls – I feel absolutely happy. Lynn: I know what you mean, darling. It’s so nice not to have to cook or to do any housework. Colin: So, what do you fancy doing tonight? We could go for a meal and then go dancing. Lynn: That sounds fantastic. But let’s go to the fitness room in the hotel first to work up an appetite.

White water rafting is adrenalin pumping, but it is not at all dangerous.  The bus is rather comfortable. £ We follow the rule: safety first, fun second. £ I’ll write you again when we are in Kirk. £ What about you? How are your holidays? What is the weather like? Love, James 61
