Holiday
Dear Trundle,
Hello
from Italy. We´re at a very nice camp-site near Rimini. Do you know
where that is ? It´s by the sea and near the mountains, too. The
first two days were rainy, but now it is sunny. Jenny and Sally
go swimming every morning. In the afternoons they sometimes ride their bikes
in the forest or go and look at the old town.
Lot´s of love,
Marmalade

Dear
Sir or Madam,
I´m writing to tell you that I was very unhappy with the holiday that I booked
with your company.
We had a number of problems and I list them below:
1. I asked you before I booked if the
apartment was near the sea.
In fact it was 45 km away.
2. I asked you if there were beds for four
adults.
In fact there were onlyonly beds
for three people. I had to sleep on a sofa all week.
3. I asked you if I could take my dogs.
The first thing I saw when I
arrived was a sign saying,”No dogs”.
4. I asked you if the weather was good in May.
It rained every day.
5. I asked you too if the people spoke English.
Nobody spoke English, and they
were really unfriendly.
The whole holiday was a terrible
experience.
