A Letter from My London Friend

My dear friend,

I want to tell you about my new house. It is a big one. Like many English houses it is a two-storey brick building with a garden around it. On the ground floor we have a sitting room, a dining-room and a kitchen. The kitchen is rather big and comfortable. My daughter Alice sometimes helps me to cook in the kitchen.

When we have guests we have dinner in the dining-room. After dinner we usually go to the sitting-room. Our sitting-room is very cosy. There isn’t much furniture in it. There is a sofa opposite the fire-place and two armchairs near it. There are some pictures on the walls. In the middle of the room there is a big carpet. We have a TV-set in the corner. Father likes to watch TV in the evenings.

Our bedrooms are upstairs, on the first floor. There are not many things in our bedrooms. You can see only two beds, a mirror, a dressing-table and a wardrobe. We have two bedrooms for guests. They are rather small.

My husband’s study-room is downstairs. It faces the garden, it is light and spacious. There are a lot of books and a lot of paper on the desk. A computer on its desk is in the corner at the window. It is my husband’s favourite room; he likes to work here very much.

I like my house. It is my home. Home sweet home.

Love, Mary.
