At the beginning of the 11th century England was already a great country. In 1066 William the Conqueror from France became King of England. But William was afraid of the people of London and he built the White tower to live in it. Now it is one of the most important and beautiful buildings of the Tower of London.
In those days people usually built houses of wood. Sometimes there were fires in the city, but they were usually very small. 1666 was the year of the Great Fire of London. It started in the house of the king's baker. The fire burnt until Thursday. Many houses in London were burnt. The fire burnt for four days. More than 250 thousand people didn't have home any more.
Different people have different hobbues. My brother is fond of collecting stamps. He has got a very good collection. Collecting stamps is easy and interesting. It is real fun. You begin to learn many facts about history and famous people when you start to collect stamps
My best friend, Alice, is a collector too. She is fond of collecting badges. My grandfather collected coins when he was a boy. Som people collect dolls. My aunt does. When she travels, she always brings home dolls from different countries. But collecting things is not the only hobby people have. Some people are fond of travelling or gardening. Very many boys and girls are fond of sport and that is their hobby
