, My favourite room, Му favourite room is our kitchen.

It’s big enough to have a good-sized oval table in the centre, E is the focal point of the room., , There is a large window above the sink, which looks out onto two apple trees in the garden. The cooker is at one end. At the other end is a wall with a large notice-board, which tells the story of our lives, past, present, and future, in words and pictures.
