Answer the questions in full sentences: .
I work at an office in town. I usually take my lunch to work with me – a sandwich and an apple, or a piece of cheese and a few crackers. Last week, a hotdog stall parked just beneath my office window. The smell of fried onions wafted up through the open window. Oh boy, it smelled good! That day, I had a cucumber sandwich on white sliced bread for my lunch. I took it out of my lunchbox and it was soft and soggy. It didn’t look very nice. I thought to myself, ‘Do you know what, I am not eating this. I am going to have a hotdog! ’ I went down and ordered one, with onions, mustard and ketchup. There is a park just next to my office, so I went there. I was just about to take my first delicious bite when I tripped over a kerb. I clenched my hotdog, but the sausage flew out of the bun – straight onto a little old man who was sitting on a park bench. He was just minding his own business, reading his newspaper. Next thing he knew, a flying sausage hit him and there was ketchup and mustard all down his T-shirt! I apologised profusely and gave him some tissue out of my bag. He quickly cleaned himself up. Happily, he saw the funny side and he laughed. A passing seagull swooped down, grabbed my sausage and flew off with it. I thought to myself, ‘Do you know what, it just wasn’t meant to be for me and that hotdog. ’ I didn’t buy another one, I just went back to the office and ate my soggy cucumber sandwich. By Laura.
