They dont get up late

Hi. Im Parson.
I do not go to school anymore but I never get up
late.
After breakfast I go out, buy the newspaper and
write one or two application letters. In the
afternoon. I usually meet some friends and we often
play football or tennis. I play the piano and
keyboards in a band. The Dragons. We play in the
Luton Club at weekends. There is no live music on
the weekdays.
We attend Luton Comprehensive School.
We wake up early in the morning but we
dont get up at the same time.

I usually get up first, the I go to the

bathroom. I wash and dress slowly. When I
come down for breakfast my sister begins her
toilet.

I get ready very quickly and finish breakfast

before Susan. In fact, I dont eat any biscuits,
cakes, or eggs and bacon. I have some fruit
juice, thats all.

Then the twin sisters go to school on foot. The

school is not far from home: only half a mile. It
takes them ten minutes from home to school.
Sometimes Frances rides a bike.

Thats right. I dont like to walk.
