For the last few months I have spent every Saturday in my flat and have done nothing more
exciting than work at home, read the newspapers and watch television. I had begun feeling, bored with
this and so, last weekend I thought I would do something different. I rang up several of my friends and we
decided to go to London for the day. I was really excited as I hadn't been to London since I was ten. We
decided to go by coach as this was by far the cheapest means of transport that was available even though
it meant that we needed to get up very early. Once in London we decided to take a sightseeing tour as we
wanted to see some of the famous buildings. After the tour we bought some sandwiches and ate them in a
small park. In the afternoon two of us went shopping and the others went to the theater. We met up again
at 6:30 p.m. and went to a small restaurant in Soho. The meal was really good but, unfortunately, it took
much longer than we had expected. We had to get a taxi back to the coach station. Luckily, we got there
just two minutes before our coach left.
