Sarah:

’Yesterday we went to Cambridge. We go there every month to visit my aunt, Mandy. She has lived there for about 20 years. The weather was nice so we were walking in the city centre for hours. Then we had lunch together. Aunt Mandy prepared my favourite steak. She can cook very well. Then we played cards. As we were playing the phone rang. My aunt’s best friend phoned because her cat had been lost. So we all went to help her. We were looking for it for one hour and luckily we found it in her attic. Then we left for home. As we were driving it started to rain heavily. The road was quite slippery but finally we got home safely. All in all it was a nice day. We will visit Aunt Mandy next month again.’
