I had a terrible day last Friday.  It was around 9 in the morning and I was alone as all of my family had already gone to work. I'd had breakfast but I hadn't got dressed yet.
I went into the kitchen and saw that the rubbish bin needed emptying. So I picked up the bin liner and went to take it outside. I opened the front door and went along the corridor to the place where you leave your rubbish. As I was putting the bag down I felt a draught of air and heard a bang. When I came back to my flat, I saw that the door was closed.  The wind had blown it shut. I put my hand in the pocket of my pyjamas, but I had left my keys inside. So I went down to the security man to phone my husband. But they told me he had gone to China for the day! I tried ringing my neighbour's door bell, but they had already gone to work. So I had to wait all day in the corridor outside my flat!

There was a good Fox, and his name was red. He helped with advise. Once Fox picked berries in the woods and heard a noise. Under the tree sat a hedgehog, and cried. Fox felt sorry for him, and he approached him to ask what happened. — What's wrong, why are you crying? — asked ginger. — I'm crying because I have no friends. — came back to him. — How is it? Friends are at all! — exclaimed the Fox. And I sure don't! — sobbed the urchin. — But why? — said the Fox. Because everybody is afraid of me, because I'm prickly whispered the hedgehog. — you're not scary, but rather cute and lovely! — replied ginger. — you really think so!? — asked with hope in a voice the hedgehog. — Yes of course! said the ginger — And now come home with me I'll buy you a Cup of tea. Good Fox brought the hedgehog to her house and they drank tea with cake and candy. The next day ginger was introduced to all with the hedgehog. It all very much, together they played and had fun. The hedgehog made a lot of friends, thanks to the good Fox.
