1 I had a great weekend.

2 On Friday afternoon, I finished work at 5 PM. I went home and took a shower, then I went to see
3 a couple of my friends at a bar downtown. We had a couple of beers and a nice talk. Tom told us
4about his new job, and Jim told us about his new girlfriend. After a while, we went to a restaurant
5 and had pizza.

6 I went to bed late that night, but I was very happy. On Saturday morning I went running in the
7 park, I ran 5 kilometers, and then came home. After that, I met my girlfriend for lunch; we went
8 to a Thai restaurant near my house, I love Thai food! I spent the evening with my girlfriend,
9 watching TV on the sofa The next day I got up and caught the train to my parents’ town I usually
10 go to see my parents on Sundays, at least twice a month.

11 My mom usually makes a roast, and we go for a walk in the park or in the country after lunch.
12 This weekend was a bit different, though. My parents took me out for a nice lunch, because it
13 was my birthday. After lunch, we took a walk (as usual) and then I caught the train back to
14 London. Now it’s Monday and I’m back at work, but I’ve got big plans for next weekend!
