A LETTER

London, 7 February, 2000
Dear Lucy,
Here in London I have many good friends among school and college students. But my best friend (his name is Harry) is neither a schoolboy nor a student. He is a clerk in a big office. He is twenty years old, tall and handsome. He is not married yet and has no family of his own.
Here is a picture of what he usually does on weekdays. Every morning Harry gets up at about seven o'clock. Then he does his morning exercises, washes and has his morning meals. After break fast Harry leaves the house and walks to the station. As he lives in the suburb, he has to get to London by train. So he takes the 8 o'clock train and arrives in the city at a quarter to nine. It takes him about 10 minutes to reach his office which is not far from the station.
At the office Harry is usually busy till 5.30 p.m. On coming home he usually has dinner and then takes a short rest. In the evening he likes to do a little reading or gardening. Sometimes he sits and watches TV or listens to the wireless. Sometimes he goes for a walk. It is not until midnight that he usually goes to bed.
As a rule we meet at the week-ends. Harry and I often go to a cinema or a dance and have a very good time together.
How are you getting on, Lucy? Is there any news from John?
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Best wishes.
Yours sincerely. Bob.
