Bonjour,
Réponse :
Dear Joe,
I’m writing to tell you about something that happened yesterday. I got up at the usual time - about 10 am - had a shower and made breakfast. I ate a big bowl of cereal and some toast and watched TV for a while. Then I went into the kitchen where I heard a funny noise. I thought it came from behind the cooker. I got my tool box and moved the cooker out of the way.
The noise got louder but I couldn’t see anything. I rang my uncle to ask his advice. He said that he thought it could be a gas leak. When I heard this I just panicked! I put the phone down, ran outside, got in my car and drove to the local police station. I told them about my gas leak but the constable lost his patience with me. He said that I should have phoned the gas company. He wrote his report, then rang the gas company for me.
Then I remembered that my house doesn’t have gas - only electricity! I felt really stupid and knew that the constable would be angry with me for wasting his time, so I ran out of the police station while he was still on the phone. I went home to try to find out what the noise was. On the way I bought a newspaper and I read about an escaped lama that broke out of the city safari park last Wednesday.
When I got home I put my key in the door, turned it, went inside and straight away heard that funny noise again. I held my breath and opened the door slowly. Guess what? I found the lama hiding in my cupboard! I let him stay and he slept in my garden last night. The snoring was so loud! This morning I took him back to the safari park. They were really pleased to see him again and gave me a reward of $ 100!
Hope you are well. Write soon and let me know how you are. Take care!
Your friend,
Mary
