football training at nine o’clock. I play on my local team, I love playing football. One thing I never do
at the weekend is visit my grandparents, I visit them on Wednesdays. On Saturday afternoon, I usually
do the shopping with my dad in the supermarket, but I sometimes meet my friends in the park. I love
playing sports and my sister loves art. She usually does something artistic, but I hardly ever do crafts.
