I hang 1) out at the shops but didn't have any money to spend. Then, one day, I bumped 2) into an old friend whose dad had his own business and we started chatting. We got 3) on well with each other and he told me that his father might give me a job, so we went to see him. He was great and I started the next day, working in his toy shop. I spent most of the first day fooling 4) around with the model trains! I don't know how he put 5) up with my behaviour, but eventually I calmed 6) down and now, five years later.
Guy Fawkes Day. November 5th is Guy Fawkes Day in Britain. All over the country people build wood fires, or "bonfires" in their gardens. On top of each bonfire is a guy. That is a figure of Guy Fawkes. He was one of a band of conspirators who wanted to blow up the Houses of Parliament and kill King James I and his ministers. However, the plot failed, Fawkes was caught on the 5th of November 1605. The conspirators were executed and Britain has celebrated Guy Fawkes night then. Before November 5th, children use their guys to make money. They stand in the street and shout "Penny for the guy". Then spend the money on fireworks.
